    Default The GOP Is No Longer a Legitimate Political Party, It’s a Cult

    It’s becoming increasingly clear to Americans that the Republican Party only stands for one thing: the privilege and power of wealthy white men.

    Over the last 40 years they have devised increasingly byzantine rules to prevent low income whites and people of color from voting and are now trying to outright throw out ballots in Detroit, Philadelphia and Atlanta.

    They’ve worked for decades, at both the state and federal level, to make it harder for women, particularly low income women, to get access to birth control, women’s health services, and abortion.

    When the coronavirus hit, most developed countries made direct payments to unemployed workers; Republicans only tolerated that here for a few months, and the price was trillions, which continue to flow, to fat cats and big corporations.

    They’ve worked for years to gut workers rights and destroy labor unions, while holding the minimum wage below starvation levels.

    If Mail-In Balloting becomes popular and accepted, the Republican Party may end up just vanishing.

    So you’re upset that Republicans are supposedly helping the (rich) liberals and hurting the deplorables you hate. Takes a minute to wrap your head around that.

    It probably works both ways. It seems like there should be some way to make it secure. Maybe have it linked to a State-issued picture ID?

    Voter ID is voter suppression according to Dems.. I'd be happy if the sig matches were against the voter roles,and not just the application
    also there are machines that do sig matches; they were turned way down and basically void
