no it doesn’t.

purging voter rolls, only opening one polling station in a county or urban area which produces lines that takes hours to vote is how they suppress voting rights.

it should be easy to vote in 2020 yet, some places in Texas tried to make it harder. Thats how they suppress votes. No one is out here standing in front of stations trying to intimidate people. This isn’t the 50’s

We have a word to describe a trait that people like this have: chutzpah.

It takes a lot of audacity to steal an election, effectively disenfranchising REPUBLICANS, and then turn around and accuse them of suppressing votes. It’s a classic leftist ploy, though: accuse your opponent of that which you are guilty of.

That's just nonsense.

Let me guess - "The Governor only allowed one ballot drop box in giant Harris County!" Is that your primary claim?

NEWSFLASH: State law only allows for one box per county. The governor was FOLLOWING THE LAW. Those who wanted to add additional boxes wanted to BREAK THE LAW, and you're complaining about the law being followed.

That's actually a remarkably wonderful example of one of the things which is wrong with the Left right now. The entire "by any means necessary" mentality leaves no room for following rules, winning fairly, etc. The only thing which matters to the Left is power. Not honesty. Not integrity. Nothing else - just power. By any means necessary.

What else do you have? How did my state suppress legitimate votes in this election cycle? I'd love to hear what other thoughts you might have been programmed with. Lay them out and I'll tell you why you're wrong.

The problem with liberals (well, one of them.....so many to choose from) is that they don’t understand that ease of voting has to be balanced with maintaining the integrity of the election. It doesn’t have to be super-easy to vote. Just about any competent adult should be able to get to a polling place (unless they are elderly or disabled, and we have absentee exceptions for them).

I believe that exercising your right to vote is to be taken literally. Standing in line for about eight hours would seem to be about the right amount.

I’ve never stood in line for more than 90 minutes, and I’ve voted in.....wait, I’m counting.....11 presidential cycles. Not a whole lot of “exercise” involved (but cute pun).

If cutting down the wait time is important, let’s spread out the voting period for three days. Lots better than allowing a system that enables mail ballots to be manufactured in the dead of night.

I laugh at that idea. The ones doing the intimidating were the blacks at the polling places in Detroit, Atlanta etc.

Well, let's see your evidence.

Pot calling the kettle black is all I can think of.

No doubt there are a few cases of suspected fraud. If you total them all up, its trivial and chances are, more Rs are guilty than Ds.

And yet there were 4 years for any concerns over a states voting practices to be addressed and resolved. Agency after agency has come forward to state that nothing in a states voting practices were improper or illegal and still these accusations keep coming up, that tells me that "integrity" has been maintained.

Yes polling places should be easily acceptable but as we regularly see reduction or removal of those same places has become a regular occurrence and surprisingly in poorer neighborhoods which are perceived will lean heavily towards a Democratic candidate. Of course this is the year the President chose to overhaul the Postal System including massive reductions of mail boxes in those same neighborhoods that keep losing polling places, can you say smells like fish....

Maybe we should be crying massive fraud over all the Congressional Races where a Republican Won but the state voted for President Elect Biden, it must be fraud because Biden won how could they have...
