@minivan55 @TheGontheC @marwilliamson That is not the entire point of democratic ideals, the vote is just the tally of the work by the people.

Or at least it should be.

THAT is the point.

@TheGontheC @marwilliamson That’s the whole point of democracy, though — making sure every eligible citizen’s vote is counted and voice is heard.

If we are interested in expanding democracy, we should be making it easier for Americans to vote, not harder.

@marwilliamson Oh please. Extend in person voting/early voting. No one travels all the time. Absentee ballots are one thing. Mail in ballots are unnecessary. Enough with dumbing down our society to the laziest elements of it.
