5. I wonder if my Honorable Discharge from the U.S. Army would be an acceptable I.D. to vote.

I can just imagine some draft dodging chicken S**t with a bone spur deferment telling me and my buddies that I served with that we aren't qualified to vote. One hell of country the Republican trash are busy creating while our soldiers are fighting for the flag and dying. One hell of a mess when they tell some 90 year old citizen who voted her entire adult life that she doesn't qualify to vote. Just what in the hell is it going to take to stop this unacceptable crap?

I think that turning away one citizen from voting is grounds for declaring the entire election fraudulent and therefore null and void. Taking away a person's right to vote was grounds for our forefathers to go to war. It what the hell they fought for. It what the died for. It is what they fought and died for to free the slaves and give them every right of as citizens. To allow some racist bastard to deprive them of their rights is totally unacceptable. They know exactly who they are disenfranchising and that is why I feel justified in calling their actions racially motivated.

If I lived there I would drive you to the place so that you can file your suit Miss Christine turbinetree Nov 2018 #1
