2022.0506.0001...
If you didn't vote in 2020, now is the time to check to make sure you are truly registered.
A lot of voters were purged by the repukeliKKKans, taking voters off the rolls by the thousands.
Watch this video to find out how to make sure you are properly registered...
And then vote!
Otherwise, after they're done with Roe v. Wade, they're coming after Us.
Again, I'm flabbergated how unefficient is your way to have updated voting lists and I'm more outrage to see that one parti like the anti democracy Retrumplicons can manage on voting lists.
We would NEVER see this in Canada as we have an independant group named «Election Canada» and the same in our 11 territories and provinces that is managing all of our elections.
ALL Canadians have a social security number and as soon as we are 18yo we are registered on the voting lists. Also, our gouvernements will register us automatically when we do our income taxes reports every year which have our uptade as our address or any other infos.
NO need to go to register on any voting lists here unless you are an exception which is rare.
As Jiel points out, he's happy to be living in Canada, I'm equally happy I live in Washington State where we have abortion rights and easy mail-in voting rights. SO FAR! If the eastern part of the state had its way, we would be another Texas, Florida, et al. Thank the majority of free-thinking voters on the west side for saving us from that fate!
You still live in USA even in Washington state where you have some good politics, for now. Don't forget all what is going in in your federal capital that could one day be ruling your state too. Also, as you said, your state is already divided between the west and the east on the politic axis.
The far right in USA is gaining terrain more and more with those who are influenced by the lies they ear and their ignorance of real facts.
If you do not think that they are coming for us next, you are sadly misinformed. IF THEY WIN, Marriage Equality will fall and they will re-criminalize Homosexuality, and all our Progress will be set back again. I say this a lot these days, HAVE A PLAN B in the event that things go terribly wrong. Be aware of what is happening around us, like the city that will legally ban non related people from living together. (Cheyanne?) I am not saying do something immediately, but do have and Idea of WHAT to do if you and your chosen family is threatened. Terrible, scary times where Books are Banned and Guns are not. Be Aware!!!!
Fred - It's always good to have a Plan B. I had to research it, but the city you're thinking of is Shawnee City, outside of Kansas City. Here's the link: https://www.kcur.org/housing-development-section/2022-05-03/ban-on-co-living-thrusts-shawnee-into-the-national-spotlight-heres-what-it-does
I have to say that as an observer from the UK ...you know that quaint little kingdom, with an unwritten constitution ... I am constantly bemused, astonished, confused by the things that happen in the USA, "Land of the Free". Paul
Yes, Thank you Rick. Shawnee City is the one. I could not remember exactly where the place was. Keep telling everyone to VOTE, because now, our lives do depend on it!
Thank goodness the state here sends out your registration card yearly....

ReplyDeletePat - Mail-in voting is the best way.
ReplyDeleteJiEL - Canada certainly has a much better process.
Milleson - Right: So far.
@Milleson,

Paul - I'm appalled, disgusted, flabbergasted, and the list goes on.
ReplyDeleteThis is especially true if you live in Georgia or Texas. They've taken care to erect all manner of voter restrictions there.
ReplyDeleteYes, Thank you Rick. Shawnee City is the one. I could not remember exactly where the place was. Keep telling everyone to VOTE, because now, our lives do depend on it!
ReplyDeleteJimbo - That is very true.
ReplyDeleteFred - I will repost this information frequently.
OH my, one quarter are repubs that did not like this meme comment.
ReplyDeleteWake up repubs, this will affect you also.
jer - They can't wake up; they're dead inside.
