And how many buses are you supposed to ride?

Howsabout we have automatic voter registration and polling places on every corner?

Maybe people should have some respect for the cost of freedom. We seem to have the idea that everything should be rolled right up to our doorstep. In a city the size of Dodge, nothing is terribly far away, unless you’re too lazy to take the trouble.

India has polling places virtually “right up to our doorstep,” and coincidentally their voter turnout kicks our’s ass.

What complete horse grunt.

Yeah, Leawood should have to go all the way out to Bonner Springs to vote.

(And boy is he gonna he disappointed when he learns that all along he’s been mispronouncing “Bonner.”)

Hey, if you want to live in India, be my guest.

What’s wrong with India?

Shithole country?

The ACLU argued that the new polling site, at an exposition center, is not accessible by public transportation and is on a route with few sidewalks.

“Additionally, the total travel time from a centrally located part of Dodge City to the Expo Center would take approximately ninety minutes each way for a voter using public transportation,” the suit charged.

Why close the original?
Town that size should have more than one.

LMAO at Psych.

Griping that people dont want to travel half a day to vote. But then, screams about people walking thousands of miles to hopefully be able to someday.

If it disenfranchises people who are of Hispanic heritage, Psych is pleased, what’s new?

You hit a lawyer of hispanic heritage and get arrested for it because you thought he was just another Latino that you could bully...maybe you continue to need to bully others of Hispanic heritage?

One group supposedly has the right to cast a vote and is complaining about it being inconvenient to do so; the other has neither the right to be in this country nor the right to vote. False equivalency.

Attended a meeting last night where a bunch of young people of color who are out there registering voters and doing everything to Get Out The Vote were present. It was interesting to see that the reemergence of the heavy duty Racists and their Dog Whistles is energizing young folks who weren't that much involved in the recent past.

Those who spend their time trying to drum up hate are having a great effect--not one they want, but it's interesting to see the energy from these young folks who are realizing that if they don't do something, this generation of George Wallace wannabes will disenfranchise them.

No worries, the demonrats will let enough latinos in to balance everything out. Everything is fair in love, war, and politics.

Demonrats...that's cute. It sounds kinda like Democrats. Very 6th grade.

That's Imzy, representin.

It's ironic, I guess, that you mock Psych and Imzy for citing Breitbart or whatever, yet you apparently get all your news from the Guardian.

I mean...lulz.

Dang, you'd think the posters you're addressing are hard of hearing!

I did, in 2014 and 2016.

Thanks for the tip, though.

Well, it looks like the ACLU and volunteers have figured out how to get around the local racist elections folks.
