Desperate people do desperate things… what are the chances they might succeed with enough of these bs methods they are trying to block votes with to affect the outcomes in mid term elections?

What more can we expect from this felon rapist who dictates what we can and can not do. Yes, remove voting for good? He did state at a rally, "YOU WON'T HAVE TO VOTE ANYMORE." Positive thoughts it won't come to that

It’s absurd to take a basic right of citizenship away from the people who understand the big picture (by orders of magnitude), to favor rural voters who are generally insular, lacking the education needed to make complex decisions about a country’s direction,and are easily manipulated because of it.
