    Yeah, it’s pretty terrifying. Luckily, we can all still vote by mail here in Wisconsin, so we don’t have to physically go to the polls, but the republicans have managed to put some heavy barriers in the way of it in the last couple years, even though their attempts to ban it outright have failed.

    My city used to have a mobile ballot dropoff truck, but they sued and got it banned, and they’ve also banned dropping off ballpts for other people. If you’re disabled and/or don’t have reliable access to transportation, and understandably don’t want to trust the republican-crippled USPS with your ballot, voting has become much more difficult, if not entirely impossible.
