PLEASE PAY ATTENTION: Republicans are gonna make it so no DEM can ever vote again

[jodymarie aimee]

This morning I saw Eddie Munster on tv smirking and promising BIG BOLD changes. Folks, we here in Wisconsin know EXACTLY what that means...WARNING Wisconsin is coming to the USA...scorched earth policies that kill us all. In 6 years there is nothing left of our once proud progressive state. Rs control everything and are accountable to no one. They gobble up the power, and take over the media and abolish agencies that used to do watchdog duty. They even got our courts to throw away all John Doe vs. Walker evidence. They cheat lie and steal. I believe DEMS won up and down the ticket in 2016. Our recount was not complete and the Rs shut it down. We also lost votes due to gerrymandering, big $$, absentee ballots tossed, crosshcheck, and let us not forget Voter ID cards. We fought this for years and it finally kicked in for this Presidential election. 300,000 could have been disenfranchised. You may have read stories how DMVs did not cooperate in issuing these cards.

I fear for our country, as many of our worst WI Rs are now right up there with Cheeto. I say Trump isn't really the President, Ryan is. Cheeto's latest ELECTION FRAUD crappola is straight out of Walker's playbook. They will try to make it so no DEM can ever vote again. We have no townhalls, no attention given to DEM emails or phonecalls. The only hope I have is there are more of us in the entire country to fight back. Protesting and resisting did not work here, but last week's womens' marches were magnificent. If only they continue. America stay ALERT and do not become Wisconsin, I beg of you.

1. I'm sure they will try, but I believe after 4 years of the Con (if he lasts that long) people

will be so disgusted with the Pubs (like they were with Shrub) almost ANY Dem will get elected.

2. When he lost the primary, Trump's campaign claimed that Walker has rigged 5 elections

I don't think the polls were wrong this year. The exit polls in WI, PA, NC, FL all showed Hillary ahead. The same company that conducted those exit polls had results that were so accurate in CA & TX that they were within 0.2% of the actual results there.

It's voter suppression and manipulating electronic voting machines and I agree that Trump, who is talking about a national voter ID (not sure that's even Constitutional to take that away from the states), is going to nationalize that as much as he can. Even though the Voting Rights Act was overturned, the Justice Dept. could still file complaints and did overturn some of the most blatant attempts until now. But, Jeff Sessions certainly won't.

I don't know what the answer is to fighting against a stacked deck going forward, but the people need to scream out about this as much as possible. Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin aren't red states.

3. Get your ID's

I've been telling everybody I know to get their ID's Get any picture ID you can. Get your replacement SS cards, Birth Certificates, State, local, whatever ID's. We need to make sure folks have their "papers" before this all goes to hell. Once it does its going to be a devils task to get anything. The democratic party should put it's efforts into a grassroots get your ID drive and have state by state and county by county centers set up to help people get everything they need. You know, rather than whatever the hell they're doing right now.

4. Our parents moved back to WI from AZ in 2014

and it was jumping thru hoops to get them voter ID cards. No longer driving, they needed 6, yes 6, forms of ID to get these cards. And names had to be exactly the same on all 6 documents. Now, when Mom was born her last name was NOT her married name. My brother had to take them to the DMV 3x...Those fucks made it almost impossible. It was just as bad for our college kids here.

5. SIX!!!

Jesus, this is my point exactly. If I can ask what exactly did they want other than SS/Birth Certificate/License-Permit? Folks are gonna need to get cracking on getting there hands on at least the social security card. It's probably the easiest to get next to a replacement birth certificate. I imagine they'll catch 22 the hell out of getting a replacement soon enough.

6. Get your Enhanced Driver's License

even if your state doesn't require, yet, that you have one. You have to show BC, Passport, etc., to get or renew your license. Part of the legislation Bush signed in 2005 for National ID. It is going to be required very soon in all states, and to fly on Domestic Flights. These Enhanced DL have a Big Gold Star at the top, but I do worry if there is some kind of chip in them. Passport, if you can afford it, is the best ID you can have.

Sounds like we are in a country now where it will be very soon, Papers, Citizen?
