Just think if that taxpayer money had been spent giving everyone a 10 pack of masks in the state.

They also spent hundreds of thousands in taxpayer money fighting Governor Evers’s common sense Covid regulations.

I thought this was going to be about the Democratic Party keeping the Green Party off the ballots.

When the Green Party gets the required amount of valid, genuine signatures they are welcome to get on the ballots. It’s nonpartisan judges who have been throwing them off the ballots because their GOP-supported campaigns are fraudulent.

Just remember: this is not the fruit of one political party. Democrats and Republicans alike have worked to suppress black voters and other persons of color.

Who are you talking to? Most of us were not born yet 60 years ago, and many were not of voting age 20 years ago.

Voter suppression, then and now, is worthy of outrage. Tell me where Democrats are making it harder for people to vote right now.

If the lines in GA indiicate voter suppression, then the lines in VA must also indicate voter suppression.

In some parts of Virginia, people waited in line up to four hours to cast their ballots on the first day of early voting, according to the Washington Post.

People are lining up to vote in person and scan their ballots because Trump has eroded confidence in absentee mail-in voting. The long lines in Va are a direct result of Trump’s actions.

I had a huge aha moment when I found this site: https://www.vpap.org/elections/early-voting/fairfax-county-va/

Look at the Early Voting Timeline graph. In Fairfax county, up until last week there were 4x as many mail-in ballots returned as in-person voters. So for all the lines at the government center the last month, there were 4x as many ballots coming in by mail. That will change this week because of the satellite locations opening but in Fairfax at least, the long lines at the government center do not appear to have been a signal that people were worried about mailing in their ballots.
