    The only argument against mail in ballots is voter suppression, since so many states already have mail in ballots and they work really well.

    Even if there were some negative issues with mail in ballots (I don't believe there are any more than other kinds of voting) but during a time of extremely rare pandemic crisis it's these sort of actions (mail in voting) that needs to be put in place for the safety of the people. It's clearly a republican fight to try and restrict the votes as it has been shown republicans typically do better in lower turnouts and have been more known to try and suppress voting to keep the numbers down, especially in minority districts. I think the suppression is even worse than Russian hacking as it's something we should be able to easily control.

    Careful, you might be called something very compelling...like one of the "Milano twins".


    ...also, I'll add make this preemptive response; :bwpopcorn: ...or maybe something even more cerebral, like "slurp slurp"...wait for it.

    I didn't get that statement either...I mean, you even also said; " (who else is going to stick up for poor Black people) and exactly what Republicans don't want voting."

    So I don't see how your post can possibly construed as "racist".

    I doubt I will get a response and definitely unlikely to be an educated quality response if I do get one.

    When I first read it, I thought it had to have been a parody. But there's video.

    If you can't bother to get an ID, then you probably shouldn't vote.

    Didn't claim that he was. His comments were.

    Black people think assuming that they can't get ID is racist. And it is. I can find a YouTube video of people being asked about it and why it is offensive.
