    Because theres gotta be some reason trump had basically the same turnout while dems lost significantly.

    I made this point elsewhere but it was also far easier to vote in 2020 (in swing states especially).

      That is true as well. My state still had mail in so personally I found it no more easier or difficult. Pardon for being shouldacouldawoulda, but in that case vote accessiblilty should’ve been a top priority for the dems after all of the 2020 bs.

      In my humble opinion it was no larger a part than any other potential matter. I mean we’re still counting and it has inched closer… nowhere to hope, but I genuinely believe if everyone turned out to vote, we wouldnt have to worry this stuff so much

        I think this really should be their goal, and they should trade things to get there. Like, who cares about needing an ID to vote, if you can use voter ID as leverage to get free national ID cards for everyone? (I’m not saying you can, but try?) Exchange president’s day as a holiday for election day…make voting access an actual priority.
