Republican-run states will cave
Good.
This is an old talking point from when conservatives were younger and healthier.
This is cutting their own throats because the Fox News set is getting old AF and tend to vote early and by mail.

Being against having many options to let your vote be heard is very anti-American.
So super on-brand for Trump
And many/most Republicans. Gerrymandering, limited voting areas, and intimidation at the poll are standard tactics to try and reduce people who might vote against them.
To be fair, Democrats have gerrymandered in history as well. District lines should be an independent determination, not by who is currently in control of a state government.
That's called Canada.
We also let criminals vote, and even set up polls inside prison for them because they're (mostly) still citizens.

I've talked to enough republicans to understand their problem with the 2 party system is that there's too many parties.

This is the level of stupidity we need to be at to get the brainwashed masses to understand what he’s actually doing. Yes, Trump, your messiah, is anti-American and pro billionaires. He doesn’t care about babies or you.

Sure thing. Make election day a federal holiday and allow for mail in ballots.
And even then. No.
No early voting! No late voting! No mail-in voting! No black voting! No gay voting! No brown voting! No veterans voting!
Fuck it, only JD Vance votes! Unless he votes for himself, and then it's massive voter fraud!
The coward really can't stand the thought of a fair contest, can he?
To him, fair is him getting his way.
Yes we all know he's a bitch who's wrong about everything.
He can’t stand the thought of traitor lunatics losing. That seems to be all he cares about.
He needs everybody to vote at polling places on the same day so his ICE thugs can round up antifa. They can’t do that if people are voting by mail or voting early.
And also close half the polling places without notice, and stop accepting new votes after 8pm even if there are still people in line.

Probably wants all votes on one day to better rig the elections.
A bunch of people who will be voting against him are working class, and the insane US system is rigged against the working class so much, people can't get a time off of their jobs to go vote.
What I hate so very much is that there is even a chance this asshole's wishes have influence on how we conduct elections anywhere in this country.
He can go fuck himself.
My fear is to is to have a single day election they could use national guard or something on blue counties to make it much harder to vote, like make special operations on the day of election and create grid locks on that counties.
They also want people to only be able to vote on Dominion voting machines, which are coincidentally owned and controlled by a Republican donor/operative.
So rest assured, no tomfoolery there.
He doesn't know that STATES RUN THEIR OWN ELECTIONS apparently. Moron.
No mail in votes? That means your increasing access to in person voting, right? RIGHT!?
Correct, but only in predominately white and racist areas. Everyone else gets fucked

People, whoever can. Please don't mail in vote if possible. They're sabotaging mail in voting by hurting the post office and sometimes the mail itself. If you can, vote in person
California has very good tools for tracking the status of your ballots. The USPS is also independently funded as a Constitutionally guaranteed service, so it’s relatively safe.
The reason they want to end mail-in and early voting is because it allows them to restrict access, intimidate voters, tamper with equipment, lose ballots, and all manner of other crimes. All voting should be done by mail as it limits their opportunities for engaging in fraud and crime. There is a reason they have been attacking it.
Oh sure, the constitution, that is totally meaningful. Yep. The Trump administration would never violate the constitution.

I opt for the mail-in ballot and then drop it off at my county auditor in-person.

I’ve filled out my mail-in ballot but I’m seriously considering physically voting on November 4th instead of mailing it in.
As a white California resident I don’t feel I’ll be targeted by the racist “watchers” but I am worried about my mail-in vote being nullified.

He can demand all he wants, the federal government doesn't get to decide how elections work.

Fuck that guy.
It is easier to intimidate voters when they gather in one place on one day. It’s just good time management!
🤮(these fucking people..)
The 2020 election claims are how they intend on pushing the third term shit.
No early voting is one step closer to no meaningful voting.
