Cool opinion, just explain to me how say a mother of 3 that can't find or afford a sitter is supposed to vote? Or her husband who is working 2 jobs to pay rent is supposed to find time? How about the elderly that don't have a car? The handicapped? What if I have a contagious disease? I should just turn on up to a busy polling booth and spread my TB all over the place? Or am immunocompromised and could die from a cold, probably spread by that sick person that had to turn up to vote? All those people lose their right to vote because they can't get to a polling place on the one day they allow voting? You are removing their rights why?
Yeah but don't you see, those people usually vote blues. We can't have those people actually excersing their right, then the will of the people might actually happen
I agree with what you're saying except the first one. Not only can the mother of three take her kids with her to vote, she should take her kids with her to vote. They should see that this is a basic American duty.
Not when it can take an hour or more to vote in some places. In one county I used to live in, it was common to break a chair to sit on in order to vote, because you were going to be there a while. Even in my much better district with more sites, etc, it took me standing for 30mins in order to early vote during the last midterm. Absolutely not would I bring even a single child to that. Not in the cold and outside since elections happen in November.
Ok, the cold and outside things are a good point, I can't argue with that.
Some people wait hours to vote, and have to bring chairs and food and water to vote. I'll let you guess what communities generally experience that. Think of having 3 kids in a line for 6 hours.... Because that's the reality. It's not just walk up say hey I'm here to vote..ok I'm done. People have to make a entire day to vote and prepare. The republicans are making laws like you can't give voters water or food or chairs when they have been standing for 6 plus hours. They are making it impossible for certain people to vote
Your own personal failures to express your rights does not mean you don't have those rights.
Yeah, but it does. I have the right to bodily autonomy, but watch me try and get an abortion in some states in the US and see what happens.
