Lots of states don’t let felons vote so this is hardly surprising.

Stay home, find a ‘safe space’ and shelter in place. Thank you for your (inadvertent) service to our Country...

Go Trump, GO!

Newsome is leading a new campaign to get African Americans to do something that few civil rights leaders have recommended: stop voting. He believes that only by withdrawing support from the major parties can black communities force politicians to address their concerns about police brutality. He calls it "I Ain’t Voting"

CLEVER!!

Smarter than a lot of D voters. Most don’t realize that Ds don’t care about them except during elections. Hillary will put on the accent and pretend to care about blacks and kiss their butts until November 8. Then she’ll treat them the same as any other peon for 3-1/2 years.

That won’t change until D candidates can no longer rely on black votes without actually helping black voters. The same goes for both parties and lots of voter groups.

In addition, many states refuse to provide picture ballots.

What if we had a government that was honest and just?

Silly, I know. Sorry.

Their Democrat votes will be tallied even if they stay home. If the dead can vote Dem, and they do, why can’t the absent?

Black racist voters won’t vote for a white woman.

Their vote for Obama was all about skin color.

Hillary doesn’t elicit the same passion.
