Yea, it was just one of the things the democrats got passed (illegally) because of covid.

I am all for states suppressing the vote of people that do not legally qualify to vote such as non-citizens and the deceased.

Lie.

No...here is what repubs are doing to keep people from voting:

If approved and signed into law, Texans would no longer be able to take advantage of 24-hour polling sites or cast ballots at drive-through polling places located in parking garages and lots. The bill also bans mobile units or temporary structures from being used as polling places.

The legislation also bars election officials from sending unsolicited mail-in ballot applications to voters and places new requirements on Texans who want to vote through the mail. The removal of disruptive poll watchers would also become tougher under the measure.

Can you blame them? Repubs have figured out that they can't win. So, the only course is to suppress voting.

Seems like reasonable measures to prevent voting fraud to me.

These new laws actually don't go far enough. Our Founding Fathers got it right, stupid people shouldn't be allowed to vote.

Drive-thru voting? Holy shit I never knew that was even a thing.

Texas the latest state prepared to pass voter suppression law​

Correction for accuracy:

Texas the latest state prepared to pass "illegal-voter" suppression law​

Republicans continue to pass laws that restrict, rather than encourage, voting. Combined with their obstruction of an examination of what happened on Jan. 6, it is becoming more and more clear that Republicans fear the American people, how they will vote and what they might learn.

The Guardian reports, "Joe Biden has condemned as “wrong and un-American” a Texas state bill set to pass into law which the president said “attacks the sacred right to vote”, particularly among minorities.

"The bill, known as SB7, clamps down on measures such as drive-through voting and voting on Sundays. It would also empower partisan poll-watchers. Greg Abbott, the Republican governor of Texas, has said he will sign it. Democrats have said they will challenge it in court.

"The bill follows moves in other Republican-controlled states which sponsors insist merely seek to guard against voter fraud but which are seen by most analysts to be aimed at restricting voting by sections of the population which tend to vote Democratic.

"According to the New York-based Brennan Center for Justice, nearly 400 such bills have been filed this year across the US, in 14 states.

"Biden has already blasted such measures, for instance calling laws in Georgia “Jim Crow in the 21st century”, a reference to the system of racist segregation which remained in place for 100 years after the civil war."

Texan lawmakers have provided a solution in search of a problem.

The two Republicans who put SB7 together, Texas senator Bryan Hughes and representative Briscoe Cain, called the bill “one of the most comprehensive and sensible election reform bills” in state history.

"Right now, I don't how many or if any elections in the state of Texas in 2020 were altered because of voter fraud," Governor Abbott on March 15, 2921.

To restrict people from voting, Republicans say voter fraud exists, but they can never prove it.

Abbott provides an excellent example of that.

In some respects, Republicans can be strange, very strange, indeed.

Why do Republicans fear the American people?

I totally agree. That is how Matt Gaetz and M.T. Greene were elected.

Voting is a privilege intended for American citizens, and we should do everything we can to ensure only citizens vote.

It is a lie that voting laws affect minorities differently than any other citizen. There are MORE poor white people in this country than any other race, so if it affects poor people differently, then white people are the ones who feel those affects more.
