(12,414 posts)4. I watched an interview this morning with a young black man waiting in a very long line
He stated he was voting for Trump because he was sure the Democrats are rigging the election.
The fact that it is the Republicans whom have made it so that he and thousands of others are made to stand in line for countless hours did not occur to him?
From gerrymandering to the lack of adequate numbers of polling places the Republicans have been rigging our electoral process for many years.
I just wish once, just once, some MSM outlet would do an analysis of how many people are dissuaded from voting due to these issues.
