One of the Democrats main priorities for 2018 is developing a plan to counter voter suppression

1. Hire buses to take people in low income areas to get the necessary IDs and make sure they are good to go on election day!

2. Old time precinct captains; door to door, neighbor by neighbor, making sure people are aware of BS GOP deadlines, so people are not cut off of voting.

3. Media buys explaining how to avoid GOP tricks, such as wrong voting locations or dates.

4. Create an elite legal squad in every state that can pounce once the GOP tries their illegal shit.

We can win BIG in 2018, even with a counter offensive of evil shit that will be attempted by the Republicans by out smarting them vote by vote!

Florida has strict rules governing third party registration for example.

for all those denied their lawful right to vote in 2016.

Hopefully we've got something going there, because the courts can help.
