I'm a conservative and it disgusts me that anyone legally allowed to vote is prevented from voting. I'm pretty pissed at the GOP and President (who isn't really a republican) at this point.

Registering to vote is really easy already. There is sense in that. Once registered, keeping track of voter's addresses can become difficult, but if people follow the law and get a new ID when they move, there are voter registration forms at the DMV, library, county health, and pretty much every county building. Every time I renew a library card, I've been asked if I wanted to register to vote with the forms right on the counter and in the entry way. It is that way in the last 4 states where I've lived. Americans do move out of state. They need to be removed from the voter registration list. There isn't a national database for that because Americans don't trust our Federal govt to have lists of people. I have trouble thinking of any govt list that I want to be on. Our passports aren't tied to any address, for example.

Voting has become really easy too. Early voting runs 2 weeks here. Absentee voting runs for about 2 months before the election. Though I haven't received my ballot yet. It was expected earlier this week.

Trump should be ashamed at trying to block legal voters from voting. The GOP needs a hard look in the mirror for their part in this too. Few things disappoint me as much as this. Voter suppression should have ended in the 1950s. After that time, it is completely unacceptable.

When the election ends up in the SCOTUS, I'm certain they will hold the right to vote over any foolish timelines during this pandemic. The govt and we all need to be flexible.

I hope everyone votes who is registered to vote. Who they choose to vote for is their own decision. I've lost faith in the GOP. They need to be disbanded (or lose every election) until they move into the 20th century. Today, they are a nasty party out of touch with Americans.

I'm not a democrat and find many of their programs offensive and bad ideas too, but a party full of liars cannot be left in power.

Well, since more and more Hispanics are turning to Trump and less for Biden, it’s obvious they’ll focus more on the black vote, but a lot of blacks aren’t enthusiastic about Biden and more black men are turning to Trump so Biden does have his work cut out for him with both groups.

And Trump will be the beneficiary of a much larger black turnout. Black voters are tired of being repeatedly being taken for granted by the democrat party. Democrats have spent decades promising black voters everything, while they deliver nothing. Minorities in the U.S. will return Trump to the Whitehouse, and because of the democrats lack of credibility, there is nothing that democrats can do about it.
