I am curious as to what you’re trying to convey with the two article links you posted. Neither one of them address the issue you claim, that lack of polling places and adequate bus transportation in black Neighborhoods resulted in them not voting. Sounds to me like you’re just parroting some CNN line and then failing to logically defend it.

As for parties drawing voting districts that favor them, I’m shocked, shocked I tell you that the Republican party would draw districts to favor their outcome! Not. Do you think that’s a new thing?

I heard a long explanation on NPR a few years ago About how algorithmic science is increasingly being used to determine fair versus non-fair voting district lines. It is a complex science. I’m glad I’m not on any court whether state or national Supreme Court to have to determine this issue. It is complicated and not given to summary in breathless CNN/MS NBC nuggets of headline wisdom.

Wi …yesterday the governor had wanted special meeting to get a referendum on abortion in WI. republicans gaveled in and out … 32 seconds. They OBVIOUSLY don’t care what the people want. Another reason NOT to vote republican. Traitor ron johnson in the news again showing how he lied about his involvement in Jan 6th. Unbelievable that people vote for this lowlife.

Read what you want into it. I have no desire to discuss/debate with you ad naseum.

Actually something positive…. Word is a few state like Michigan and Pennsylvania.. some republicans are starting to vote against election deniers and whacky conspiracy theorists. Hopefully more republicans and states will join suit.

Republican in good standing Marjorie Taylor Greene recently said "I am not going to mince words with you all. Democrats want Republicans dead, and they have already started the killings."

Does anyone have any idea what the hell she's talking about?

I think people sometimes betray their inner thoughts by what they seem concerned with...

I also seem to recall MTG calling for the execution of elected officials. I suspect they were democrats, but I admit I haven't really been paying attention to the clown college.

Ha! I'm concerned that she seems to be fomenting mass violence, even though my chances of getting caught in the crossfire are slim.

hunh, have we actually debated? I guess I missed that. I see you post links, say mean things about all Republicans which does not bother me, berate Alan for having his head in the sand, tell me I am stupid for not thinking for myself/failing to watch CNN/MSNBC/other mainstream teevee (also—does not bother me) and post in a shouty way more links.

I guess I don’t consider those actions “ debate” but ymmv as it obviously does.

Now apparently newt Gingrich believes there should be an exception to abortion restrictions. For people who are deeply committed to Christ.

That is interesting. I’m going to go check that out.

Edit to add: what an odd interpretation you’ve made if you’re talking about Newt defending Senate candidate Walker. There’s nothing in the news report I read that is about a woman who is committed to Christ being allowed an exception abortion in a restricted state.
