You know what other major political party that suppressed votes to win and went on to commit atrocious crimes against humanity?

Spread the word. Republicans LOVE voter suppression. Double-check your registration, especially if you're in a red state or red county. Have a plan and vote!
Republicans want us talking about the non-issue of election fraud. They don't want to talk about affordability, illegal wars, erosion of our Constitutional rights, the protection of child sexual predators by Republican Senators and House Reps, and many other way more important issues.
Let me make a guess about the demographics: they weren't white
My wife got news from a coworker who been pull off the rolls said we should check ours.
Well I did hell my son still has his and doesn't even live in the state anymore.
We also all registered independents. So Republicans think we are one of their. Even though we always vote Democrat.
A lot of whites vote blue. I can almost guarantee this is either indiscriminate or targeting blue voters
The fuckery works because people don’t check until its too late. This is not a new trick, they do this every 2 years. The scope may be bigger than ever, though.
This is the time to step up Americans. You are supposedly the greatest country and democracy on earth. Land of the free and home of the brave. Time to show the world what the fuck you people are made off. Are you a bunch of fucking cowards that will let this sack of shit steal your freedom from you or are going to step up and take back what’s rightfully yours?
I live 3300 km away from Texas. That's almost half again as far as Kyiv is from Paris. It's not trivial to just pop down there for a march some weekend.
Yeah because this is only happening in Texas.. wake up man, they’re stealing the midterms
They're rigging them, but they've been doing that for my entire lifetime. For decades Republicans wouldn't have been able to win a majority or presidency in a fair election, but our opposition party refuses to move or step down. They're captured by Capital interests too.
What exactly would you have us do? Our empire is at the last phase of it's life cycle... It's collapsing.
There's no saving it. We're way past the tipping point... If we want democracy we will have to rebuild it, and we're in for a period of suffering before that can manifest
Until then, the best we can do is try to hold things together and keep people alive.
And hopefully avoid a last ditch major war... That's a common final nail in the coffin
So roll over and die is what you’re doing?
This is exactly how Kemp managed to stay Governor of GA for a while, and why Abrams was raked over the coals for nearly going door to door urging people to register.
"clerical error".... right.....
Conservatives are pissing in their pants at the prospect that Texas could turn blue.
Americans, now would be the time to spring into action.
A year ago would have been the time to spring into action... Or better yet during COVID
At this point? We'll probably still win the midterms, hopefully have a wave of fresh progressives who will soften the landing, but our government has been shredded. Our economy is going to pop in the next two years (could be tomorrow), and our debt is untenable anyways
There's rough times ahead before things will get better
Another reason to have mail-in voting, if you don't get your ballot in the mail, you still have enough time to figure out how to vote in person.
