Okay, so their approach to disenfranchised voters:

  1. No actual voting change.
  2. No voting reform.
  3. No enforcement of existing laws forcing companies to give people 8 hours to vote.
  4. We’ll give them more days they can vote on! Sure that’s the problem.

Eat the rich.

No enforcement of existing laws forcing companies to give people 8 hours to vote.

It’s 3 hours not 8 and includes time after your shift so if polls close at 7 and you work until 5 then you are entitled to 1 hour off

Too fatty. Just guillotine them and leave them for the birds.

Show me where it’s written in the law that people are supposed to get 8 hours off to vote.
