Black people vote in overwhelming numbers in the early vote process and were key to Obama winning Florida in 2008.... so what do the CACs do that run Florida?... reduce early voting days and hours by 50%

and what happens? some people taking up to 9 hours to vote or just leaving! :angry:

This is next-level systematic voter suppression. And these bitches try to talk about Chavez.

Florida GP has a systematic effort to steal the state. Why isn't voting managed by a non-partisan organization?

You're right. But the hours are reduced for everyone. I see a lot of minorities in that pic. Look like they still getting it in despite CACs being CACs. Could end up being a major backfire.
 
I agree with Profit, reduced hours affect everyone, all races.

All these folks have to do is deal with the long line/wait times, and also go out Nov. 6 to vote.
 
Quit all this bitching and go tell folks to vote on Tuesday.

Damn I keep hearing whining from both sides. JUST GO VOTE!:angry:

Did you read the first line? Minorities vote in significantly higher numbers in early voting. Whites vote in significantly higher numbers on election date. Restricting early voting days and hours significantly suppresses the black vote.

In one county alone (high dem-black county), this resulted in 100,000 less black people voting. That is enough to swing an election.

This is systematic vote supression. It affects white GOP voters MUCH less than black people and other minorities. It won't backfire on the GOP unless there are criminal investigations into fraud.

It undeniably reduces the black vote count though.

It is not bitching :smh:

The GOP in FL is making it harder for folks to vote, and took measures to cut early voting hours.

FYI, other GOP Governors made it EASIER for people to vote early. It helped Obama win in 2008.

They realized that and have now fucked up the voting process dude to their cheating ways and agenda. :smh:

Quit with that bullshit.

We can all vote November 6th like any other race. Guess what, you can also early vote before the dead line.

Just stop with this voter suppression bullshit, and GO FUCKING VOTE!!!!

I understand your position, but these folks need to weather the storm and just fucking vote regardless of all the roadblocks. :smh:

But you can still vote right?

No excuses please.

Anything they can do to supress the minority vote is being done in a systematic way.

People seem to forget that this type of action was enough for them to steal Florida and Ohio before and hands elections to Bush.

This type of shit has real consequences.

Did you read my other posts :rolleyes:

Regardless of the issues, people just need to fucking vote!

You know they've moved locations as well (producing longer commutes) and some people actually can't leave work on Tuesday to go and vote. Poorer wage workers living check to check have a harder time losing work days when they have bills to pay.

Man... I can't see how people aren't disgusted by a systematic plot to make it as difficult as possible for black people to vote.

I'm not arguing people shouldn't do whatever they can to vote. Shit people need to show up in the MID-TERMS to keep assholes like the current SOS out.

But regardless this shit is pretty fucking disgusting because this is not just ONE case... throwing out provisional ballots, sending out misinformation in highly democratic districts, etc.... what is happening down there is straight up attempted robbery

Yes there are consequences, but consequences that can be avoided by people standing strong and voting regardless of the obstacles.

Just like how our elders stood strong to get us the right to vote.

There needs to be no excuses at all!!!!

It is disgusting, but the only way to combat it, is to fight the system. Come out in numbers and still vote.

Question: If people are in line after the 7pm time, they can still vote, right? I will be in that fucking line till I cast my fucking vote.

Don't know what else to say :smh:

The system needs to be modified to eliminate ease of abuse.

just wanted to hammer that point home.

This is what I call an excuse thread. Not your post, but the op's post.

Quit making excuses already and go vote for whoever you want to vote for.
 
Those before us stood in LONGER lines while on the receiving end of the white mans billy club, his attack dogs and water hoses.

WE WILL RISE ABOVE AND RE-ELECT OUR PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!!

This is not an excuse thread bitch.

This is pointing out a clearly systematic effort to supress the minority vote.
 
It will not surprise me to see riots break out if folks are not able to vote come Nov. 6.

FL is on some bullshit with a 10 page ballot, and less voting hours :smh:
 
now if this type of shit (10 hour waiting) was happening in ohio, i'd really be pitching a bitch.

i still believe bamo WILL take florida. by a nose.
 
TOO FUCKING LATE!!! :smh:

Why not sue a week ago, or before early voting started :smh::hmm:

There are two clears issues here.

1. People need to understand the important of mid-term elections (not just presidential) because these characters should not have been elected in the first place but people didn't show up in 2010.


2. There needs to be a thorough reevaluation of the vote management process because it's too easily manipulated by partisan politics.
 
I have a strong feeling this is going to backfire on the GOP in some type on way

It fucking has to.

Rachel Maddow broke that shit down the other day:

Jeb Bush (GOP) extended early voting days and hours.
Charlie Crist (GOP) did the same.
Rick Scott comes in to change rules that were working just fine, but to change them to favor the GOP.

All people have to do is have no excuses and go out and vote!!!!
 
They can, but 10 hour wait times is a killer.

They have to be strong and just wait, no matter how long, and vote!!!

exactly.

If people wanted President Obama to win, they will endure. Same goes with the republicans. I deal with this shit with my friends in the Tea Party. They are bitching because some early voting starts before the first debate *I have to admit, that's crazy*. I'm telling them the same thing me, and you wun are saying.

Fuck everything else, and GO VOTE!
 
Can they not vote on November 6th?

Is there a systematic attack of on minority voting implemented by the GOP?

I don't fall for fallacious argumentation clown. Take that somewhere else.

Your argument is the moral equivalent to the Dutch in South Africa justifying decimated educational systems in the black community by asking the question:

But aren't there still schools for blacks to attend?

Whether there were still schools that survived or not or whether still still remains an election day does not negate the fact that there is a systematic government sponsored effort to disenfranchise minority vote and it successfully doing so in a series immoral and possibly illegal ways.
