"...not so sure about the younger voters."

" public confidence will be much higher in accepting the results than wide scale mail-in ballots used in 2020."

Public confidence only suffered because the sore loser kept lying about the efficacy of mail-in ballots, and all of Trump's Slurpers amplified the lie, all with ZERO proof, even after almost four years.

Time to get your nose out of Trump's backside.

" IN 2020 massive changes to how people could vote were made in a very short period of time."

Massive?!? Absolutely not. Not even anything new; just an increase of one method and a decrease of the other.

And 100% of any-and-all changes went through proper channels.

As usual Bellringer is lying. Well, misrepresenting the truth.

Pathological.

Forcing people to vote in-person also allows shenanigans, up to and including forcing folks to wait 3-6 hours (or more) to vote. As I've pointed out in the past, at my white-person precinct, it took 11 minutes door-to-door, including 2 minutes to walk from the parking lot, and 2 minutes to walk back.

So...seven minutes.

It's unfathomable "certain" people have to spend 7 hours. But, of course, that's by design.

Voting should be made as easy as possible for all legal voters. And it should be THEIR choice of HOW they cast their votes.

Lies from liars (especially those with NO PROOF) should carry no weight at all. You're afraid of mail-in ballots? Don't use one.

Just don't lie about the efficacy.

"being lazy isn't a legitimate reason."

How about not wanting to face a 3-6 hour line?

Legitimate?

Bill, serious question:

Should the ability of a legal voter casting a legal vote be made EASIER, or HARDER?

"This will go over your head but my answer is neither."

Dude...nothing you have EVER said went over my head.

"If you can make the case discrimination is going on.."

That's easy: How many hours did you stand in line in 2020? If it's less than 6, I've made my case.

You're up: how long did it take you to vote?

"Harder sounds like discrimination if it is proven to be a deliberate attempt to hamper voting."

You're right. Let's compare my 7 minutes to their 7 hours, shall we?

How long was your experience? (To make it equal, please don't count the minutes walking to and from your car.)

And do you agree SEVEN HOURS is "hampering"?

"If everyone is required to vote in person unless they have a valid reason..."

You never answered if 7 hours is a valid reason. Why not?

"sounds to me everyone is being treated the same."

That's because you pretend your burden is the same as a single mother with three kids and two full-time jobs, expected to waste 7 hours in line. Ultimately, you don't want her to vote, right? Not unless she adheres to your made-up requirements.

Just admit it: you're a voter suppressionist. You want it easy for you, but very VERY hard for "certain" people.

"Sounds like a voting precinct needs to fix a problem...but that doesn't make it deliberate hampering as you are suggesting."

Sounds like you've got your head in the sand. It was no mistake that my precinct took 7 minutes. It was also no mistake "certain" folks had to wait 7 hours. ALL ON PURPOSE.

If you can't see that's "hampering", you're a moron's moron.

"Again..you have to prove it is deliberate discrimination "

If you can't see the difference between 7 minutes and 7 hours, there's no hope for you.

" I said it's a problem that needs fixed."

While you're in favor of exacerbating the problem.

And it's not just "a problem", it's purposeful suppression.

"Certain" other folks don't get the same advantage as you. Which is your entire goal.

How long did it take for you to vote? Why won't you answer that simple question?

You avoided it so long, I accused you of voting by mail, which you want to deny to others. You told me you voted in person, but since you won't specifically answer my specific question, I'm starting to believe you were lying.

My vote took seven minutes. How long did it take you to vote in person?

" Does that not imply I think it's excessive?"

Imply, Schmimply; is it SUPPRESSION?

Just be honest, for once in your life.

" You now have to prove its deliberate discrimination and not just poor planning."

If you don't believe me taking 7 minutes, and minorities forced to take 7 hours is "deliberate discrimination", you're a brainless moron. Especially since it happens election after election.

Are you a brainless moron?

"Rhetorical questions violate site policy."

Point well taken.

"You now have to prove its deliberate discrimination"

I've already done that.

You have to prove it's not.

You also have to answer the question: how long did it take you to vote?

Absent that, I believe you're lying, and you voted by mail, something you don't want "certain" "lazy" people to be able to do.

Bill?

Lamplighter has a question for you on the table, as do I.
