We Need To Make Republicans Pay For Their Voter Suppression - Sue Them Personally By The Thousand?

[DanieRains]

Republicans can only win if they cheat, even if the billionaire owned media is helping them along with Russia.

They openly perform voter suppression.

From Florida in 2000, Crosscheck, and on and on and on. It is blatant, in our face, and it seems there is nothing we can do.

We need to MAKE REPUBLICANS PAY FOR VOTER SUPPRESSION.

Having the ACLU sue them is one "thing" we can do, but Republicans keep doing it, and nothing bad happens to them. It takes 6 hours of standing in lines to vote in "minority areas" but 5 minutes in "rural areas". Then in Durham the voting machines "break down" in the majority minority areas. They make voter id the law of the land, then close offices where you can get id.

We need to find an EFFECTIVE WAY to stop them in their tracks.

Maybe millions of us could sue the people in charge personally.

We have to do something!!!!!

Just look at Wisconsin and Georgia.

We are being screwed out of our vote, and our power year after year.

Making it twice as hard for Democrats to vote is part of how the Slimy GOP keeps power. They do it openly.

Any ideas other than just standing in line hour after hour?

1. If Standing In Line Is What It's Going To Take Then.....

we need to do that. It would only be one time that we'd need to do that - cause when we win we will take that opportunity for them to suppress votes in the future - away from them.

Let's let 2020 be the year that we take that opportunity away from them. Let's stand in line. Let's have 'line standers' available to stand in line for those to weak or old to stand in line and when we 'line standers' get to the front of the line - let those weak and old people go vote.

Let's drive people to the polls. We need to do everything in our power to win this 2020 election. Once we do - we can end the Repugs reign of voter suppression.

2. The unfortunate thing is

Not everyone can stand in line for several hours. They might only have a few hours between jobs, or they might have kids, or the weather may be so miserable that it's a threat to ones health.

8. Did You See My Suggestion For "Line Standers".....

We need to have volunteer 'line standers' that have the time and energy to wait in line for people that can't because of age, ability or work.

Do you think we can manage pulling something like that off?

Some young and energetic college kids that support the Dem Party.

How cool would that be!!!!

4. How about... stand in line to vote AND sue them?

3. I agree and think we'll need to do even more

It seems things will get so bad we might have to be cautious of trumpanzees with guns at the polls.

5. Like what more?

6. Another idea? Fronts that push "voter fraud" conspiracy theories should be treated as the fake news

... That they are

If a social media platform doesn't allow fake news, flag it. Or at least challenge it.

That will deflate a "reason" we see voter suppression.

7. Some of us could take folding chairs to the line of people waiting.

to vote. The elderly and disabled get first option for the chair.

Seriously, if there is no other way around their tactics (for the moment) then we need to act with kindness and caring.

P.S. and small bottles of water.
