Kalama lost bc voters for who voting is a real burden didn't show up to vote. They are poor and likely people of color. Fuck off with blaming people.

The election Margin was under 200k people in 3 states. Correctly people in safe states voted for what they wanted not what they had to do.

I said exactly that, its not people choosing between the parties its choosing to engage, but even more than that its people for who voting is a burden and that in 2020 a lot of effort was put into giving people access to voting due to the pandemic.

You just said exactly what I said while also saying im acting in bad faith.

No, that undecided group does not exist, this election clearly demonstrated that. Trump results are nearly identical to 2020. What exists are people who are not engaged or disalusioned. They also are poor and going to vote is a meaningful event that takes energy that they don't have.

The people who are already being subjugated by the system, yeah you are wrong and your take is dangerous and enabling of the system.

Blaming the poor is a cool and fun take. If you willing want to blame those for which voting is actually a burden then you are the problem.

That isn't what your link says at all, infact it talks at length about the uncertainty of the whole process, which favors it being attacked.

No each body must vote to sustain an objection, if one doesn't then the process is deadlocked.

If you preform the needed procedures your a felon, subject to hundreds of thousands in fines and multiple years of jail. While clearly the net moral shing to do is save the life, its a stupid choice to put on anyone. The laws are evil and so are its supporters
