I'm saying what the auspices are ... offering food and drink is a 'bribe' to show up to vote. That's their bullshit story.

Next I expect them to ban 'any roof' to be present above where people standing in line, and that sharing an umbrella is a felony. Also, using a hand fan on anybody but yourself is a felony.

After that, they'll say children under 18 are not allowed with 1000 yards of a polling location (because poorer folks are more likely to need to bring the kids to the polling place).

They're just going to pour on the bullshit tactics, and count on the shithead Trump-appointed judges (and Supremes) to back their fucking cheating.
