I voted today

From A CNBC article

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/26/fre...ion-options-to-get-to-your-polling-place.html

"But voting in person poses accessibility issues that can suppress participation, particularly for those who do not have a car or reliable public transportation, or those who live far away from their polling place. While 66% of voters with access to a car voted in the 2018 general election, just 36% of voters without access to a car voted, according to recent research from professors at Harvard University and Boston University."

So not having a car and being too f#@@&ing lazy to walk to the poling place or pick up the phone to ask a friend or relative to take you is voter suppression? If it were important to you, you would find a way. Easier to play the victim card I guess.

Like I said earlier, if they can find a way to go get their beer and cigarettes then they can find a way to vote.

Also, I was a State Constable from 2004-2010 and part of my duties was to serve as law enforcement at the polls. A buddy of mine said a bus pulled up to his polling site that was rented by the democratic party and picked up voters from the projects and brought them in free of charge. If you want to vote bad enough then you will find a way.

i stand corrected, i read this on Forbes, you know that Liberal Commie media outlet.

“Many of the ads included what purported to be a picture of his signed mail-in ballot… These pictures are from the primary but as of a couple of days ago he was encouraging people to ‘Vote like Trump’ and request a mail-in ballot for the general.”

it was pretty uneventful no line... just walked in gave ID voted and left... about that fast. It was kinda a lonely empty feeling. Didn’t even get a sticker :(

Yesterday my son voted ..as he is standing in line he had a guy wearing a Trump mask 6’ behind him and another guy wearing a Biden mask 6’ behind the trump guy..... he said they were both around 60. The voting police came out and told the trump guy he couldn’t wear a Trump mask inside to vote. So he says what about the guy behind me if he can wear that I can wear mine. The voting police said both of you have to take them off and we will give you a paper mask..... Biden guy said he wasn’t taking his off .... Trump guy goes I am never taking mine off.... the two mask guys got into it a bit with each other.... I guess it was quite funny. Both of them put the paper masks over their cloth masks and voted
Now that’s how you vote!!

Sad ignorance by the voting police. Completely wrong to make them remove/cover masks, hats, t-shirts, etc. And even worse that many people think there are rules against it. Supreme court has ruled on this.

This drives me crazy!!!!

How the F did this ever become a thing.

The constitution specifies election DAY, Not a freakin time frame or absentee ballots that aren’t even FINAL votes, as you can change your damn mind!!!

If this country socializes or nationalizes anything, especially healthcare, there goes your well educated professionals. Specifically with medicine, no physician will attend 12 years or more of college, medical school and residency for the prospect of making the equivalent of what a doctor in Europe makes.

This physician certainly wouldn't have!

In Mexico according to the doctors we have seen it take 3 to 4 years to be a doctor or dentist. When you graduate from high school you choose what you want to be. It takes just as long to be a mechanic as it does a doctor. I think the mechanics make more and the patient does not ask dumb questions.
