I see where Democrats talk about how cumbersome it is to vote.

Does anyone have a problem voting? I am not sure how it could be much easier in Texas to vote. It might be tough on those that don’t have the right to vote, but for a citizen it couldn’t get much easier .

It’s far too easy to vote (cheat). It should take effort and have multilayered security.

Have a problem?

Call the local or county party headquarters of your choice.

Someone there will see to it that you can get registered properly. Are you housebound, have a disability or your car just has a flat? Call again and someone will see to it that you can get to a polling place to vote.

Honestly-- it depends on where you live. In Jefferson County KY-- for example-- there was only one place to vote. In a county of over 750k residents. Lines are ridiculously long.

and just so we all know Louisville and Jefferson Co merged in 2003


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisville%2C_Kentucky


Since 2003, Louisville's borders have been the same as those of Jefferson County, after a city-county merger.[14] The official name of this consolidated city-county government is the Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government,[15] abbreviated to Louisville Metro.[16] Despite the merger and renaming, the term "Jefferson County" continues to be used in some contexts in reference to Louisville Metro, particularly including the incorporated cities outside the "balance" which make up Louisville proper.

Here's where Jefferson County's proposed 20 polling locations are for Election Day

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Voters planning to cast a ballot in person on Election Day in Jefferson County will be able to choose from one of 20 locations, if Kentucky's governor and secretary of state approve the county's recently submitted plan.

The plan originally submitted by the Jefferson County Clerk Bobbie Holsclaw in September contained only eight polling places, drawing backlash from Louisville elected officials and Secretary of State Michael Adams for being an insufficient number and not spread enough throughout the city...

That giant flushing sound you hear...

Psst... the incident I speak of was in 2020. That is why they're making a grand production over the number of polling places this year-- it was such a massive fiasco in 2020. My bad for using the word "is" rather than "was".

https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/23/us/jo...rnd/index.html

The point was-- it does happen and it can be cumbersome. The special election we're having in Ohio this week has seen some polling locations change very last minute as well (not near me, but up in Cuyahoga).

RE: ling liknes on voting day>

Early voting is available just about everywhere. Go and vote before the lines form on election day. Again: The county (or local) party headquarters of your choice is your friend. There may also be some non-profit or NGO that will take you.

My guess is that anyone participating on any of the forums on this board has the ability to travel or can arrange for it.

Other impediments to voting:

Her in the Houston area and its surrounding Harris County, the 2022 midterms were an avoidable disaster. It is my belief that the election day debacle was engineered. In 2020, amidst the pandemic induced swirl of absentee voting and ballot harvesting, there was a Democrat sweep of all county elected positions. Which in and of itself is just politics. But in the midterm election of 2022 there was a disaster. I believe that the election day debacle was purposely
engineered.

In just over a hundred polling places there were far fewer ballots issued than there was voting in the previous election, often by a lot. %Texas state law requires that each polling place have on hand 20% MORE BALLOTS THAN RECORDED VOTES FROM THE PREVIOUS ELECTION. Poll workers reported that they did not have enough ballots early in the day but got no more ballots. Many polls closed early (at noon) and thousands were turned away for lack of ballots.

As a matter of public record, these problems occurred exclusively t precincts that historically voted Republican. This was not engineered by any shadowy group whose name ends in Boiz, not by any MAGA-mob or some unethical conservative mega-doner. This was overseen by the elected officials of Harris County.

Any discussion of voter suppression in Texas has got to address the 2022 midterm skuildugery in Harris County.

A liberal that has to walk across the street and show ID to vote has been disenfranchised and suppressed.

1) The Bourbon is the shizz-nick!

3) The tooth brush was invented there.
Otherwise, it would be know as the teeth brush.
4) They have plenty of polling places available - if you are actually so inclined.
5) They helped us at the Alamo and we are indebted to them forever.

I have to show ID to buy beer at Dollar General. 0zombies can't get a fucking ID to vote.
