Don't worry, next time around we won't be voting with ballots. We'll be voting with something a lot more effective at removing Nazis from power.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

or have a MINDER like with putins election, to make sure you vote the right candidate.
Are we at the point yet where we are openly called a dictatorship and humanitarian forces start stepping in...?
We need an outside group to handle our elections because a third of our country is so fucking corrupt it's VILE
Thankfully they're not blocking online or mail-in voting.
Not yet. Just wait and see.
North Carolina says hold my beer.
I mean federally. I'd just register in another State if the State was an issue.
According to the Pew Research Center, 69 million women who have taken their spouse’s name do not have a birth certificate matching their legal name and could find it much harder to register to vote under the bill.
So, among other things, this is a step towards the Republican goal of denying women the vote.
Women of course, but also poor people and immigrants are far less likely to have all of the requisite documentation. Plus it's an opportunity to snipe at transgender people.
I work with the homeless all over the country and the most common theme is that they rarely have all the paperwork to get their ID.
I talk to a lot of people who think voter ID requirements are no big deal, because they have always had an ID. They cannot fathom anyone living a life that doesn't conform to their experiences.
Honestly i'm gonna laugh when the 2nd gen immigrant vote turns out because they all have passports to visit family.
Why do you think they are targeting birthright citizenship? Just gonna declare all those minorities illegal immigrants and ship them to the concentration camps in El Salvador.
Also, I’m adopted…
My name was changed in the decree and not on my birth certificate.
I changed my last name cause I ain't being called the name of my fucken rapist.
GOP: Putting the "suffer" back into suffragette
Then the suffragettes should just go back to the terrorism they chose to abandon at the start of WW1.
No taxation without representation, you fascist cuntrags!
Every time some liberal recommends peaceful protest, I yell that MLK Jr. couldn't have got where he got without Malcolm X, that Stonewall was a riot, and if someone takes away my right to vote, I'm going to behave in the way that got my foremothers the right to vote!
I can't WAIT for Chuck Schumer And His Democrats to do LITERALLY NOTHING to Stop this or Slow it Down in ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM!
"We've tried nothing, and we're all out of ideas. They win this round, but we aren't giving up, and will continue to resist all efforts to end their reign of terror. Send money."
We got married in St Lucia back in the 90s, and we've been trying for several years to get a copy of our marriage certificate so my wife can get her ID updated. We've sent them the money ($10) several times, filled out all the proper documents and followed all the rules (which have changed a few times), and then we hear nothing. After a few months, we try again. There is no option to do it online.
At this point, we are seriously considering getting her a legal name change through the American courts. It will be more expensive, but at least it will work.
I would advise any woman who is getting married to keep her own name, and not change it to her husband's. Dont even hyphenate it. Changing your name is a stupid old custom anyway, I cant believe feminists didn't go after it long ago.
As a trans woman who both legally changed her birth name AND took her husband's last name when getting married:
And nothing will be done about it.
There’s no agency to ride to the rescue. It’s just the government and We The People, for better or worse.
I'm sure that Schumer and Jefferies will be looking for a nice bipartisanship solution to deny women the right to vote here.
The bill would create criminal penalties for election officials who register any noncitizens, even if they did so by mistake
Creating a job that no sane person would ever want to take. The people who do take the job will be overworked, since their office will always be understaffed, and they will tend to err on the side of caution and deny registration as the default.
How about also creating criminal penalties for election officials who refuse to register any citizen, even if they did so by mistake? /s
4 DINOs also voted for the bills, apparently there are in red districts.
Dems pretending to be Republicans so they don't lose their jobs always, always, always works. Just ask anyone serving in a Texas/Florida swing seat.
theres at least 10 Dinos in the senates, practically republicans that cant beat a maga candidate.
Some of the biggest DINOs are from solid blue states.
