"Voter ID in England led to racial and disability discrimination, report finds"

Or, voter suppression law led to suppression of votes.

Result.

Just went #voting in #Norway for #kommunevalget2023.

The voting day is on Monday 11.09.
#advancevote is possible since 10.08. until today.

That's A WHOLE MONTH where I can turn up at any station that I pass by and cast my #vote.
One Month, anytime, where ever I want.

Don't let them tell you things like that are 'not possible'.
It is, they just don't want it.

The Voter Suppression laws #Texas just enacted are insane! And giving themselves the right to fire Harris County officials specifically, gives the game away. They're fixing elections.

#votersuppression

#electionfraud

On that basis #labour would have won by about the same amount as the #Conservatives actually did were it not for #VoterSuppression through new #voterIDrequirements . This is atroubling rsult - not just the revelation that I may suffered from "hubristic incompetence"!

#VoterSuppression #voterIDrequirements

I had thought - from earlier wording by the #electoralcommission that the new #voterIDrequirements did not apply in three parliamentary byelections in July. It seems I was wrong. This does not affect the analysis for #selbyandainsty and for #somertonandfrome very much. It does, however, have a profound impact on #uxbridgeandsouthruislip . So much so that I will need to revisit it. You have been warned!

Where the GOP Presidential Candidates Stand on Voting Rights and Democracy

Trump "stands alone in his attacks on democracy and voting rights."

What about other Republicans?

Hint: They're pathetic.

The awful provision prohibiting "...individuals from handing out food and water to voters" was tossed out, among other things.

"You may not know Cleta Mitchell - but here's why you should. Cleta calls herself 'the consiglieri to the vast right-wing conspiracy.' She's leading an effort to unravel our democracy and restrict voting. And her latest project will gut voting rights in North Carolina, key swing state." https://youtu.be/3l2lQa0RZhw #votersuppression #DemocracyDocket

The biggest danger to our elections isn't fuddy old-fashioned tech or voter lack of confidence.

The biggest danger to our elections is the effing fascists in the GOP who are literally trying to break them.

#Voting #VoterSuppression #ElectionIntegrity

A danger of pointing out #VoterSuppression is it's MEANT to lead to hopelessness from the suppressed that their vote will count.

It's a useful tactic for those who hate democracy and freedom because it removes or limits one group of voters while driving others to give up. This is really important for out of state fundraising too.

But we can and we must take another approach. See the voter suppression and get angry at the culprits and stubborn AF about every vote.

https://open.substack.com/pub/thomhartmann/p/the-shocking-voter-purge-crisis-of-c66?r=3d3gr&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email

States removed more than 19 million people—or about 8.5% of the registered U.S. electorate—from voter rolls between the 2020 and 2022 electoral cycles, often via flawed practices that prevent many eligible persons from exercising their right to vote.

Every examined state must improve its laws and practices to guard against improper voter registration purges????

LMAO. It’s the #gop playbook.
#votersuppression

@marcelias #Wisconsin heads up the #gop and their endless supply of big business money (that they get from places like Kwik trip) are at it again with the #votersuppression lawsuits
