Hey guys, wanna know a secret? I still expect it to pass, but the voting rights act wasn’t going to save us for 2022, anyway. We were always going to have to do that ourselves. Seriously, does anyone think the GOP would NOT hold it up in courts beyond midterms? 1/2
It’s vitally important for 2024, but there was never enough time for it to make a difference this year. We have two choices: 1. We can mope. We can give up, and we can let the authoritarians win. 2. We can make plans now and vote these idiots out. Me? I’m not a fan of moping.
@Angry_Staffer Good way to look at it. Maybe we would have become to complacent about voting in Nov if it passed before...
@Angry_Staffer Yep Organize. Protest. Educate. Donate. Do everything you can Then vote
@Angry_Staffer Good point. I’ve wasted hours being upset. I’m done. I’m ready to vote blue straight ticket.
@Angry_Staffer @upstate_farmer We are going to lose the house this year but I expect us to pad the senate
@Angry_Staffer I think the new gerrymandered redistricting maps go into effect before the 2022 midterms. That is concerning. Makes me feel defeated if nothing is done about it. No pen and paper. Sophisticated computer generated programs are being used this time.
@Angry_Staffer I do agree that all of us should carefully pay attention to what voting laws in our home state is regarding this year's elections and do everything required to make sure our vote will count. Make sure all of your neighbors and friends that are legally able to vote does.
