If we show up, they will lose. Of course what they did was wrong...but we can and will beat them. I will vote in Ohio in person with not even a little bit of fear. I will take precautions and would crawl across broken glass to beat the orange mass murderer. The doom and gloom posts discourage voters and why would we wish to do that?

"But crowds swarmed to the polls, with some voters saying they had no other choice if they wanted to vote." Sometimes we have to show up and risk our lives to vote...ask John Lewis about his experience.
