"Sir, our record indicates you are still ineligible to vote because of unpaid fees and fines."
"I have a receipt right here that shows they've all been paid up."
"Aww, that's adorable but please leave or we will call the police."
(This American citizen is arrested by ICE agents for attempted voter fraud. A rumor quickly spreads in this predominantly black neighborhood).

I'm quite certain there will be plenty of Civil Rights attorneys ready to file suits, and people with video cameras happy to stream incidents of voter intimidation. |

I'm sure that's true but after the fact it won't change the vote that is suppressed. DeSantis will pull any dirty trick he can. He's fine with killing untold numbers with the virus in order to look good to his supreme leader. |

I'm quite certain there will be plenty of Civil Rights attorneys ready to file suits, and people with video cameras happy to stream incidents of voter intimidation. Civil rights attorneys with laptops vs. ICE agents armed to the teeth. That's gonna go over well. There is no way to undo election day's shenanigans. November 4th will be too late even with lawsuits. What are they gonna do? A do-over? The damage is done. My employer purged innocent people from voter rolls in Florida. An untold number of people showed up to vote only to be turned away. We will never know exactly how many were turned away and who they would have voted for if they were allowed. The damage was already done and there was no way to undo it which was why the media focused on hanging and pregnant chads, not the purge of legal eligible voters which was a much greater travesty. The damage was done. The GOP smart strategy is to inflict irreversible damage on election day to make enough of a difference to put Trump over the top. It worked in Florida in 2000. |

He's fine with killing untold numbers with the virus in order to look good to his supreme leader. DeSantis is much more corrupt than Jeb Bush ever was, so I am sure he has dirty tricks lined up. I don't think either of the Bush brothers was a racist. DeSantis is a certifiable white supremacist and I am sure he takes a lot of pride in that. |
