Americans have managed to vote during world wars and even in the middle of a civil war. People have voted during the days where you had to walk miles in the wilderness to get to a polling place.
But leave it up to these clowns to say we need a “holiday” and forced voting because it is so “unfair” that you only have ALL DAY, and even more than that in some places, to haul your butt a couple of blocks to spend a few minutes voting?
We all know that these people who do not bother to go to the polls want to vote for Democrats, that is clearly their intention. It is cruel and inhumane to subject them to the inconvenience and humiliation of actually voting. Since we are well aware of their intentions and desires, from this point forward, their votes should be counted for Democrats whether these people vote or not. It’s the only fair way.
They can't offer a shred of evidence of “voter-suppression efforts”, but when someone points out massive voter fraud, they scoff and call you a kook.
I am for getting rid of all federal holidays. The only ones off are government workers including schools. Most of the children have no clue what the day is commemorating and the adults just chalk it up as a day off and time for sales. Patriotism is at its lowest!
Only one problem with this Communist’s wet dream. Many Democrat voters don’t work. Will someone be hired by the federal government to drag the sleeping, the drunk, the felons, from their domiciles to the polls?
California has the largest population of any state in the US. California has one day for voting. Polls are “manned” by volunteers. There are always enough volunteers (Retired men and women) to managed the polling places. In fact all the Southwestern States are managed the same way. I have seen people ride their horses to the polling place in east Paso Robles. And polling is open from 6:30am to 7pm. And there is absentee voting, and drop off voting. If small states on the east can’t manage their polling places to allow everyone to vote maybe they don’t really want to vote. Or it’s a poor excuse, or they are whiners. A national holiday? Somebody is always working on a holiday. Child care, cooks, waitresses, police, fire, traffic controllers, road workers, utility workers, factories, etc. Holidays like this only pertain to government workers, and not all of them. Regular workers seldom enjoy all holidays. And for most this type of holiday will be unpaid. So the idea of instituting a national holiday for voting will fail
Bernie, Bernie, Bernie
We’re NOT a democracy, we are a republic. We have to change that to Republic Day!!
Dems have more dead voters than alive now. It takes longer to wake them all up and dress them to get them to the polls.
Prediction - the next time they have the opportunity the Dems will try and cram down an Austraila-style mandatory voting law.
