Election day should be a national holiday. It should be the first Monday in November. That means there would be a 3-day weekend before the national elections. People should have to vote in the county in which they reside, on election day, in person, with state or federal ID in hand. The only exception should be overseas military. Period. End of story.

Now we’ll put this new corporate compassion to the test. Let me see all of these corporations bail on Texas. It’s one thing to to talk shite to GA but Texas is a whole different animal.

you caring what your enemies think about you is a winning strategy for them. why would you think they are going to stop labeling you a racist for disagreeing with them?

Not really. There have been studies that show no significant differences in vote by mail by party prior to 2020. It’s been going on for years.


Jesus you are not very bright.

Think.

Simple mail in ballots that you have to twist have been around for years and I would agree with you.

Blanket making out an entire liberal area without the peeps asking for them is what is bad.

The day they are delivered, dems going around and harvest the ballots. They them fill them out and drop them off.

That is ballot harvesting and that is why mailing ballots out without people requesting them should be illegal.

Just in 2020 Trump filled his base with lies about the integrity of mail voting, which in turn played a big part in his losing... and the senate seats flipping in GA.

That is reality. And the sooner the GOP in these states focus on real issues and not conspiracies the better for the party. They are only energizing voter registration by dems and making it a huge issue that will backfire.



Lies don't get more truthful by repeating them over and over.

Tell use what the Dallas county muni judges think.

You're right, don't try and look inward and find any internal biases you may have. Just ignore them and hope the people that are affected by it go away.

Is there anything that states that a pandemic can't make these laws null and void? That's what we need.

You are confusing TejasHorn with me, texashorn.

By the way, did you see the Texas Supreme Court ruled last week on letting the hairdresser out on the contempt of court jailing (a year later)?

The court said the original order wasn’t specific enough, so any action upholding it (including contempt of court in relation to the order) was null and void.
