'This Is Jim Crow, 2.0': Texas Voter Blasts GOP Voter Suppression - The Last Word - MSNBC

[Rhiannon12866]

Pam Gaskin, a Texas voter whose mail ballot application was rejected twice due to confusing changes from a new GOP voter suppression law, tells Lawrence O’Donnell why it was important to her to keep fighting until she finally got her mail ballot. Voting is a “blood-bought right,” she said. Rep. Colin Allred adds that it’s “ridiculous” that voters are dealing with these restrictions in 2022. Aired on 02/16/2022.

1. I saw her interview.

Amazing!! Voting for 46 (?) years...
She is very high up in League of Women Voters.
It was very shocking and I do fear what is to come in Texas!!

2. It's unbelievable and she's right, how many voters would just give up?

But with her background, they obviously targeted the wrong person - despite the fact that she's exactly the demographic that they're trying to prevent from voting.
