If there isnt 100% turnout among Democrats in November then we deserve 4 more Gorsuchs on the SCOTUS

12. That's part of it.

More election officials are needed. I've heard people say they were turned away from the polls. I've had employers attempt to tell me who to vote for. I once had an employer,knowing my political affiliation, inform me the day before an election that I would be required to work from 6 am to 7 pm-open to close at the polls. I demanded my time off to vote but not everyone will out of fear of losing their job.

Yes,some are lazy and don't care. Others feel they have no choice. Yes,employers know they are required to allow you time to vote if you have an extended shift but some just don't care. At this level of poverty a CNA, a gas station attendant or a waitress is too afraid to rock the boat.

At one point I worked for the state of Missouri on a 6-2 shift and found out at 2 I would be held over for coverage on the 2-10 shift. I asked for time to vote and was informed I could do so only on my 30 minute lunch break. I know this sounds rambling but if a state job tries to deny voting rights just think about how hard it can be for someone working for a private employer.
