Democrats object to Chick-fil-A voter registration drive
Tampa Bay Times ^ | Thursday, September 29, 2016 | Mark Puente

The Stonewall Democrats of Pinellas County are crying foul over Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections Deborah Clark's decision to hold voter registration drives at nine Chick-fil-A locations. Chick-fil-A, the fast-food chain known for putting faith ahead of profits, supports conservative causes.

Susan McGrath, leader of the Stonewall Democrats and head of the Pinellas Democratic Party, said the decision to use Chick-fil-A would be similar to a Democratic supervisor of elections holding the event at Planned Parenthood.

Chick-Fil-A is the same type operation and Planned Parenthood?

The Hillary supporters, with their bumper-stickered voter registration clipboards, are a permanent fixture outside the Starbucks in downtown West Chester, PA.

They aren’t always treated well. Last weekend I witnessed a college hipster telling one “get the &%$# outta my way” as he brushed past her on the sidewalk.

I just smiled.

I suspect people waiting in line or even trying to get into the parking lot of a typical Chick-fil-A would be annoyed at the added delay if a voter registration drive were to set up there. I’ve never seen one that wasn’t busy, other than Sunday.

Hand people a clipboard with registration form and pen while they are standing on line anyway.

Is Susie saying that Planned Parenthood is EVIL? I don't think she meant for that implication but there it is.

Bad analogy, Chik Fil A doesn’t murder people with tax dollars.

If the Demonicrats threaten with violence the lives of those who are trying to register, shoot the domestic Demonicrat terrorists!

In California there have been voter registration drives literally at taco trucks and at some movie theaters showing a new Django-type Dindu movie.

I think this is fair play.

Frank Zappa used to have voter registration activities at his concerts.

I suspect the Dem’s largest voter registration drives happen in the local cemeteries.

Well, that way they can be sure that they will not accidentally register any Conservative Republican.

The voter registration drive is always aimed at young people and to gin up enthusiasm (towards progressive causes), and Democrats have a monopoly on young voters. Or so I was told, repeatedly.

>>> Democrats object to Chick-fil-A voter registration drive

Only Dems pre-approved venues can have voter registration drive, any other don’t count.
