Trump Supporters Launch Effort To Take The Right To Vote Away From Women
By Jason Easley on Wed, Oct 12th, 2016 at 5:05 pm
If you were asking yourself, how could Donald Trump and his supporters could make things worse? The answer came in an effort by online Trump supporters take the right to vote away from women.
The uproar started after 538s Nate Silver tweeted two maps that showed what the election result would look like if only men or women voted:

The fact that the men only map showed Trump winning in a landslide set off the male Trump supporters.

And unfortunately, I can envision women going to the polls to vote to take away their right to participate in democracy.

The 2nd stands a better chance of being eliminated than does the 19th.
