      The narrator also suggests that voters might have to wait in line outside polling places for as long as eight hours.

      Can’t you vote by mail in the US? Why do this to yourself? In Germany I always vote via mail and it is super convenient as I can just throw it into the mail on my way to the grocery store.

        republiQans have limited voting by mail because it means more votes for them. Most states have some kind of vote-by-mail system but it’s constantly under attack by republiQans.

          Figured. It’s kinda telling too. In a democracy you want as many people to vote as possible, so you’d think you would make the process as easy as possible too. Anything else would not give you proper representation of the populace.

            If voting was about policies and proper representation, the right-wing party would have long since been extinct lol. They have none of that going for them.
