All my respect to those who do their duty to show up, despite the risk to their own health and safety the corrupt RW has put on them.

Good morning and welcome to the Shit Show! Today’s episode has been produced by the Supreme Court and directed by the incomparable Speaker and Senate Majority leader duo.

Buckle up, this one’s sure to disappoint!

I am relatively young and healthy and I have to think twice about going or not. I end up decided to still go vote personally (my state needs an excuse for mail-in) but my primary has been delayed. If I were older and in worst health, I would definitely not risk it.

THIS is the line to vote in Wisconsin in the MIDDLE of a PANDEMIC in a state which is currently under a STAY AT HOME order.

The Republican Party CHOSE this. They forced the election to occur today and closed 90% of polling locations ON PURPOSE.

who otherwise would have been fine if they'd stayed home. Pity the poll workers as well. Somebody will die for having voted today. It's practically a guarantee and it's criminal.
