beto run against cruz again.
What voter suppression?
the texas party of the rich is better at freezing and hunger . they do not serve the cheat lie and steal.
Good. Just remember you need ID for stuff anyways. We don’t need no judges crying foul!
All of the things that the Republicans are doing is dangerous to democracy. ALL OF THEM.
These voter restriction laws are going to restrict Republicans as well as Democrats. Dumb!
Shouldn’t a (supreme) court approve bills like this, before they can be passed?
Truly curious about that. Here (Netherlands, and I guess in the rest of Europe as well) no law or bill can be passed before a team of legal experts (judges) have checked it against the constitution and existing legislation.
Having to show ID is racist. Desperate democrat dead in water without cheating
The people in Texas better stop the suppression
Oh no, republicans want me to show an ID to vote! Scary. The Democrats dont like that because then how would the illegals vote?
Sorry, but Fascists are not embarrassed! HA!
Joe think what you just said… you gave the exact reason why this is a grave danger! ‘Drive in-voting, mobile ballet boxes, 24 hour voting, they’re not grave danger but I would want them in….. SO MORE PEOPLE CAN VOTE IN A ELECTION!
Stopping everyone being able to vote because you got rid of the things that allowed more people to vote! Is voter suppression just as you clear stated
these disgusting rebs will need to be dealt with – eventually – mark my words
and harshly
Is this bill even legal based on our shared constitution?
Audit the Vote .
This is America unevolving in real time, from a democracy to an authoritarian regime.This is simply an authoritarian power grab dressed up as election security. This is what fascism looks like in the early years folks. You better get on that. Terrifying.
Good job Democrats
They misspelled best anti cheating bill
God put that man in a wheelchair
So, it hasn’t actually been stopped.
AMERICA needs to wake up vote THESE PUTIN backed anti democracy REPUBLICANS out
They want to give more power to the Republican poll watchers who assaulted and in acted violence during voting this year, republicans played games with ballot boxes and changed laws leading up to voting and look what they doing now. Republicans and their supporters are uneducated and can’t see that their own party is taking their right under them noses. They also allowed the riot and fueled the murder of cops yet they assaulted Black Lives Matter movements. Republicans can only be described as the new chinamerica with their bigotry, racism and corruption.
dems 1, reps 10, dems still need to catch up.
To the GQP, it is “fraud” if someone with darker color skin casts a vote. But they’re not racists, wink.
