    Even if this gets overturned eventually, the goal is to throw sand in the gears for this election.

    We live in some stupid times, and if Democrats get majorities in Congress, I hope they don’t forget this time when the GOP cashed in on authoritarianism.

      This is why we so desperately need the voting rights act back. It used to be that changes like this required pre clearance before taking effect, and any challenges be worked out before hand.

      Another terrible supreme court decision courtesy conservatives/Republicans who don’t respect the right to vote.

        There’s a lot at stake in this election. I hope we can manage not just to survive but lay the foundation to thrive.

        The entire conservative belief system is centered around privilege and against democracy (and this country’s values), so, no, they don’t value voting.
