In many states, you do not have to show ID. You just tell the poll worker who you are. One person(I think it was Project Veritas) told the poll worker they were Janet Reno(if it was Project Veritas then this was probably Eric Holder), and was given a ballot.
Also, IDs for absentee ballots are generally not required, and in some places they do signature verification. With a large volume of absentee ballots, the checks go out the door.

Well we wouldn’t want to rip the unborn apart unless they could feel pain right?
Many of these "abortion ban's" force women to carry a non-viable fetus to term and have them die upon birth which is horrifying.
She doesn't care. She also doesn't care about the child once it's born other than forcing her religious views on it.

Vouchers don’t give low income students options. They give middle class students options to get away from low income students.
Some low-income kids may benefit if their parents are informed and the kid can actually get a seat. But most won’t. Certainly not the SN kids.
Vouchers typically don’t cover the full cost of private school, except for crappy pop-up private schools that open just to get voucher money and provide only bare-bones education. Low-income families typically can’t afford to pay more than they voucher amount for good private schools.

Kathy Tran put up a bill to legalize abotion through post birth. Basically she is on tape saying her bill would allow abortion through crowning and if a baby survived and abortion, to allow it to be set aside to die slowly.
That legalized infanticide bill did not pass.
Do you imagine that Democrats are wanting to go around killing healthy babies as they are being born? Does that sound right to you? Do you look at the people in the grocery store and think that’s what they want? This should be a signal to you that you’re no longer in the realm of reality.

No, that isn't horrifying, although it is sad. Horrifying is killing the baby in a painful way and then delivering it in pieces because people can't face disability and death. I have two friends who took profoundly disabled babies to term and it was a spiritual time for their family as they held the baby and sang to it for a few hours before he/she died.
It is also horrifying how you objectify these babies as "non-viable fetuses." Over twenty-four weeks, just suck it up and deliver the baby.

Ugh. We will not. The State Senate is still controlled by the Dems. There's not going to be any extreme abortion bills. And if there are, the backlash will surface in the next election cycle.
At least one of those Dems sides with Rs on abortion.

Probably not 20k of them.
It sucks big time but it will be ok.
“I do not pretend to understand the moral universe: the arc is a long one, [and] my eye reaches but a little ways. I cannot calculate the curve and complete the figure by the experience of sight; … But from what I see I am sure it bends towards justice.”

Are you suggesting someone should scour post offices for votes?
Count all the votes is a good start but I don't think more are really coming in. I only say count all the votes because it's the law and Youngkins ran on protecting the constitution.
Terry needs to keep fighting here.
This is far from over.
