Wow, that's raw. More voter suppression. This does not bode well for Democracy.

don't be coy, you know why.

I mean, Dem Governor engage in voter suppression tactics!?! College town polls considered too expensive maybe?

Subject Line was only half snarky. Not watching infomedia much these days. The corporate script is only going to get worse, unless everyone in CA says "F*&^ this S^&*, we're ALL voting for Bernie".

I'm reasonable sure one of you good souls will alert if that happens. ;}

PS: Already have the $27 set back for tomorrow night. (that part always feels good, regardless of vote count).

Three times is enemy action." (Ian Fleming and others)

Massively shutting down as many polling locations as possible, while restricting resources at each remaining polling place to less than what will accommodate the number of voters assigned to it, is a new tactic by the Repubs.

Recently, Arizona was the worst example of this tactic, and probably the most egregious from a PR standpoint for the perpetrators of voter disenfranchisement aimed at poor and minority voters. But that doesn't mean they won't keep doing it. As long as it works for them, we will see more of it.

Spoken plainly: Controlling who votes controls who wins.

We need to develop a plan to counter disenfranchisement of the poor and minorities. One way to do this is to implement Vote-by-Mail in as many States as we can. If everyone votes by mail, nobody is stuck standing in 100 degree heat for half a day waiting to vote.

is a Republican. She made her money on Wall Street.

That being said, Rhode Island has a track record of corrupt government and a somnolent populace.

The Sanders campaign needs to transport by vehicle people to the correct polling station.

On the other hand, Rhode Island has the Cool Moose Party, which I believe consists of one person, Robert Healey Jr. Mr. Healey ran for governor in several elections. Then he ran for Lieutenant Governor with the promise to abolish that office.

Rhode Island has not been traditionally a progressive place. It is not reactionary, more like every day is the last day of summer vacation. Most of the residents of the state live within five miles of over 400 miles of coastline.

The beach calls you, that ocean's siren song echoing over the hideous cacophany of the stripmalls, the poor triple-deckers of worn-out cities. Even if you live in the woods, on a hot summer day, in the dead of winter, you can taste it with Thanksgiving, you can hear it on New Year's Eve, every night it rocks you as you sleep.

Especially if you have a waterbed.

Peace and love be with you, reader.

We may win the odd battle but we are not going to win the war playing by their ever changing rule book - of that I am now convinced.

. . . that younger voters tend to use polling stations and older voters dominate absentee voting that requires no such stations. Which group favors which candidate, again? Also nothing more than coincidence that the RI powers in the party -- the sorts of people who decide whether polling stations are needed -- weigh heavily in favor of one candidate:

Common Cause Rhode Island, a nonpartisan organization that works to ensure honest and effective government processes, has argued that the Board of Election's decision to close 67 percent of its polling centers will negatively affect voters.

What the hell does this have to be "argued"??? I have never seen such in-your-face-voter-suppression like this before. And it's stemming from the democrat party. Oh, and the governor of RI..

I expect this kind of garbage from our opponents. but from those that are supposed to be on our side?

Fuck Em...

I have NEVER been as disgusted with our political process as I am right this minute. (And that is saying something.)
