In Germany, everyone gets sent voting information. No registration needed, because every citizen is automatically registered.

Yeah we’re kind of rigged. Here it’s mostly game of voter suppression and gerrymandering the lines.

When it gets closer to our vote you’ll find voting centers in red states closing up near Urban areas. You’ll find police threatening to lock people up for driving poor voters to the faraway precincts their reassigned to. You’ll find voter registration information being lost. And automated systems will magically be down causing hour after hour of wait wherever the poor voters are directed to.

They’ll try to get people engaged in third party candidates when we’re really only a two-party system.

We’re right on the edge of that authoritarian takeover. We’re very heavily waited towards conservative voting in many states. Don’t get me wrong there are a few states that have some blue gerrymandering going on. But nothing like this stuff happening in Texas and the Carolinas

causing hour after hour of weight wherever the poor voters are directed to.

*wait

Also, it doesn’t even end there: my state has even criminalized giving water to those people waiting hours and hours in line, in order to try to dehydrate them into not voting.

I guess passing a law saying only white Republicans can vote would be too on the nose.

I guess his investigation into voter fraud didn’t go well

I keep working my way back to blue babe, With a burning love inside.
