Republicans admitting that generous voting processes hurt them

[Demovictory9]

Read some discussions about this since red wave fizzled. Repubs, rank and file understand their hurdle to winning blue states..

The problem as they see it: Need to outlaw generous registration options and mailing ballots to all registered (as done in California) to turn state red but need state to be controlled by repubs to do so..so caught in trap

Whats interesting is they dont even pretend they think "illegal voters" are voting in these blue states.. On freeperville someone called them "disorganized voters" .. They dont want them voting


What they want..super tight registration process. No mail in ballots.. And counting ballots only on election day.

Weird to see Americans invested in blocking eligible adults from voting. They recognize that part of Florida going red is by keeping it harder to reg and vote

1. Do they want federal legislation in the local elections. Sort of a reverse voting right

[Demovictory9]

3. They want to win blue states to eliminate easy reg and voting

To kerp them red

2. nothing new, GOP has been fighting against voting rights for decades

4. if they made their agenda more appealing to the masses

instead of trying to limit the masses from voting...........yeah I know

5. That's basically and admission that they can't win elections.

Even after draconian restrictions, it will still catch up to them. When you have a generation of future voters who grow up with "active shooter drills" in schools, parents struggling to meet ends, a voter base whose mortality is in question (while passing laws to deny them health coverage), etc. Then it becomes clear, they are destroying themselves for short term gains.

6. Some of them are also screaming to raise the voting age to 21 again.

Dang youngsters voted too much! Can't have that!

(I turned 18 in 1972, when the voting age was lowered to 18. I was able to cast my first vote against that crook Nixon.)

7. They're OK with them buying guns and serving in the military at 18,

but By Gawd, they're too immature to be trusted with voting. *smh*
