Republican Voter Supression Efforts

@SentientBeing

Purging voter rolls is their latest tactic.

This right here is a no brainier issue based on race. Since it is statistically more likely a black person would have a name that is the same as another black person. (Because most black sur-names are slave names that are not as varied as Euro names most whites have) And add in fact that blacks vote >90% Dem if knock them off roles it is more likely they are a dem.

• The 2000 U.S. Census counted 163,036 people with the surname Washington - 90 per cent of them were African-American,

So libs think black people are so dull, they name all their kids the same name.

Brian Kemp voices “concern” over Georgians voting in leaked audio - Vox

“Facing allegations of voter suppression, scrutiny from voting rights groups, and calls to resign from his opponent, Georgia secretary of state and current GOP gubernatorial candidate Brian Kemp recently said that Stacey Abrams’s voter outreach effort “continues to concern us, especially if everybody uses and exercises their right to vote,” according to a new report.

Rolling Stone’s Jamil Smith reports that Kemp made the remarks during a ticketed October 19 “Georgia Professionals for Kemp” event held at Atlanta’s Blind Pig Parlour Bar, which was closed to the press. Someone who attended the event provided roughly 20 minutes of audio from Kemp’s speech to Rolling Stone.

Early in Kemp’s remarks, Smith reports, the gubernatorial candidate expressed concern about early voting in Georgia, particularly “the literally tens of millions of dollars that they [the Abrams campaign] are putting behind the get-out-the-vote effort to their base.”

Kemp also said that Abrams’s campaign had focused heavily on absentee ballots. “They have just an unprecedented number of that, which is something that continues to concern us,” he said, according to Rolling Stone. “Especially if everybody uses and exercises their right to vote — which they absolutely can — and mail those ballots in, we gotta have heavy turnout to offset that.”

Wouldn’t want everyone to excerise their right to vote, now would we? I wonder why?

i wonder what happens when enough people decide that due to voter supression the government is illegitimate.

and stops obeying laws about things like paying taxes, registering vehicles etc…

after all the police cant arrest everyone and with the rise of cryptocurrencies hiding money is getting easier in a hurry

The immoral Republicans will do anything to maintain their grip on power.

Case Study 1: Georgia
Georgia Voting Begins Amid Accusations of Voter Suppression - The New York Times

Keep in mind the man in charge of running the voting is also running for Governor and refuses to recuse himself. He’s canceling thousands of registrations on dubious claims, and now there are reports the voting machines are changing votes.

Case Study 2: North Carolina
North Carolina voting laws suppress minorities - The Pitt News

Laws that almost surgically targets African Americans went into effect while absentee ballots were rejected by the truck load - and guess which race they tended to be.

Case Study 3: Kansas

They moved the only polling place in Dodge City - a majority Hispanic city - outside of the town, more than a mile from the nearest bus stop.

Are you ****ing kidding me?

It would nice, if dems ran on issues…More BS to hide they have no solutions for anything. Look at California. Shrinking middle class, and poverty. Lots of super rich and super poor. This why is dems have to take small issues and pretend they are large problems. Pretending is all they have with the help of the media…

So your response to documented voter supression efforts is to say “it’s fine because California sucks.”

Your hatred of Democracy and American Ideals is noted.

Did you denounce Hillary’s comments on not being civil because you lost an election? Of course not… No, dems did that I know of. So, which party really hates democracy?

The one that suppresses votes, which is republicans.

No, there is no proof election outcomes are being effected by those few article you have. But, the leader of your party openly told dems not to accept the outcome of the last election.

That’s hating democracy.

Nope, people like you who approve of voter suppression hate democracy.

Hahahahahhahahahahahaha

Did I ever mention Pelosi or any of those other utterly irrelevant people? Did I ever say she was a pillar of virtue? You can’t find me ever saying one positive word about Pelosi.

And regardless, she has absolutely nothing to do with voter suppression efforts or your blatant dismissal of news sources.

So here’s the “deal” partner - you stop being a dishonest shill and actually look at facts and evidence like an adult, and then maybe I’ll actually discuss things with you.

Good

Good reply. Since we seem to be in agreement that there is corruption in both parties. We may want to think twice before electing anybody who wants to give Washington more authority over the people. Yes?

And what are the goals of these articles? It’s obvious there is no one stopping people who want to vote.

But the left collects these little incidents and pretends it’s a large problem to undermine their voters faith in our democratic systems.

That’s about all they’ve been doing since they lost…

Very Sad. But what else can Dems do if their philosophy and history proves can’t fix any problems, only makes things worse…

Each articles have specific examples of people who were stopped from voting.

Just say you don’t want minorities or Dems to vote and be honest with yourself.

It’s been well established he doesn’t read linked articles.

Articles showing only a few people may have a problem and pretending it’s a massive problem many have is dishonest. It’s not like Trump used the IRS to hold up 500 rep orgs for this election.

People no longer buy this stuff. It’s why dem are losing. Try some real solution for Americans.

[TheRedComet]

As citizens they still have the right to vote regardless of their ignorance.

@Tilly_jow

Nice deflection…as is typical.

You haven’t denied not reading linked articles.

I read as much as I need. What percent of dems votes do you claim are being suppressed. ( Won’t get an answer, and we all know why, lol!)

Why do dems try to undermine our faith in democracy?

No kidding? Who has said otherwise?

My opinion is this, if you are an ignoramus when it comes to politics, because the summation of your knowledge of politics and government comes from glancing at newspaper and magazine headlines, or from the comments you heard in a politician’s campaign ads… do us all a big favor - stay home on election day., don’t vote

Do you disagree with me? If so, why?

[Grimalken]

Could you imagine the total and complete meltdown by the dems, if Trump’s IRS dared to do to liberal progressive groups, what Obama’s did to TEA party groups?

[TheRedComet]

I have mixed feelings.

I would rather the citizenry become educated on political and philosophical matters so that they can vote with confidence.

But ultimately I just wish more people participated, educated or not. We have a terrible participation rate by first world standards.

That would never happen. Just because they have a conservative president does not mean that liberal members of the IRS will turn conservative. The IRS would still be happy to target conservatives if they thought they could get away with it.

Remember, you guys have only won the popular vote once in the last FIVE presidential elections.
