I am amazed at the blatant, cynical and unpatriotic voter
fraud taking place in this country today.
It is taking place in the states of Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania and
Wisconsin to name a few. Republican held
legislatures and governors have passed voter ID laws that are defrauding voters
out of their right to vote under the guise of stopping a nonexistent voter
impersonation “problem”. There has never
been an arrest or conviction of this kind of “voter fraud” in the history of
Pennsylvania as stipulated buy their own Attorney General.
To make matters worse, they found a judge who is a
severely intellectually challenged right wing ideologue to rule in favor of Pennsylvania’s
fraudulent law last week. It is under
appeal.
The right wing knows they can’t win this election on
their policies of hatred and exclusion, their plan to turn Medicare into a
voucher program where they give you a chit and send you out into the insurance
marketplace to find your own healthcare, their plan to gut Social Security and
Medicaid, to say nothing of their tax plans to further enrich the wealthy on
the backs of the middle class. These
policies are not favored by the majority of Americans.
So they pass voter suppression laws that restrict voting
hours, eliminate early voting and pass voter ID laws to literally take the vote
away from citizens who have voted legally for many years.
Is this the democracy we grew up in? We have been fighting for years and years to
make it possible for every legal citizen to vote. Are we going to let these bullies take us
backward?
Rigging the vote is unconstitutional, illegal,
unpatriotic if not treasonous and it is unconscionable. This is a true definition of voter fraud.
Don’t let these people steal our democracy.
AND THAT'S NO BULL.
