Louisiana election website and app go down on election day




I don’t ever remember the
@Louisiana_sos
website and app ever going down on election day. But Kyle Ardoin has had time to attend Rispone/Trump rallies. Creative way to suppress voter turnout in favor of republicans in a close election.

The only reason to go there is to check registration status just before going to vote. Blue_true Nov 2019 #10

I'm not sure the site being down will effect voting. I don't know that most people ever visit thier state election sites. That said, I'm confident the DNC has plenty of legal staff on ground. That said, simply taking the site down could effect Trump voters as well.

But, personally, I can't trust a voter that waits until the last minute to do that. If people get to the poll and their registration is in doubt, they should demand a provisional ballot.

Too bad HR-1 is sitting on Moscow Mitch's desk or in his trash. It is a good bill that protects America's elections.
