I mean it's Texas so it's not like it matters. But still a good precedent for anyone else who tries this bullshit.

Similar thing happened in Ohio a couple days ago. There's a reason the only thing McConnell has given a shit about these last four years is packing the court. They matter.

Texas could actually be close this year. 538 still gives Trump about a 70% chance of winning there, but if it's a Biden landslide across the country, states like Texas and Georgia are in play for Biden.

Good on the judge for blocking Governor Abbott's blatant voter suppression.

All three of those judges were Trump appointees.

But it's not voter suppression. It's about election security!

Because some people are worried about with all the dicking around with Dejoy at the USPS it may not get there in time. When I fill out my ballot I will be bringing it to a drop box. Fortunately there is more than one within a 100 mile radius from me.

First it's, trust the Post Office, now it's use a drop box but since there aren't enough it's voter suppression. Meanwhile the polls are still going to be open. You libs are whining excuse makers.

If you don't think going to court to make sure you can only have one drop box per county isn't voter suppression you are fucking retarded.

The ballot box limits are obviously intended to prevent voter fraud unless you support things like ballot harvesting. You can mail in your vote, drop it in the one ballot box in your county, or vote in person. That doesn’t sound like voter suppression to me.

The fucking post office or the polls, bitch. There is no suppression, just lazy ass whiners that don't want to be inconvenienced in the slightest. If you want your vote counted then do what is necessary.

Lazy? Have you ever waited 8 hours just to cast a vote? Because that's what is going on in some areas. Have you ever had to drive across the entire county to cast a vote because that is also happening.

Never in my life. Mail your ballot or drop it off in the box if the wait is too much

Ha. I was just thinking the same thing. It would be my 4th, too. 

I'm currently on my 4th viewing of Peaky Blinders.
