We the people are watching the desperate attempts to make sure our voting voices are squished come November. But guess what? It ain’t gonna work. It hard to understand how y’all don’t understand that the more efforts are made to suppress us, the more we are going to redouble efforts to make sure that never happens. Y’all continuously tout the American people and how we refuse to give up our freedoms, while doing everything you can can to take those freedoms away. Well, now you’re seeing that refusal to bow down and and give up in action. Nothing y’all can come up with is going to make the great anger in this country go away come November in the voting booth. And here’s the Everyman answer to it all… This week in Tarrant County, Texas, county commissioners tried an even cruder way of rigging the coming election. They voted 3–2 along party lines to get rid of 92 of the polling sites the county had in 2022 before the midterm election. In 2022 there were 316 election sites. Republican commissioners cut that number to 224. They also cut three sites for early voting, from 50 to 47. There are 1.3M people registered to vote in Tarrant County. Republicans voted for the cuts. Democrats voted against them. During an 8-hour meeting voters had plenty to say to the Republican commissioners about the cuts. One constituent warned: “You guys are out!” When County Judge Tim O’Hare refused to look at him, the man called out the disrespect. “What could possibly be so important, Mr. O’Hare? Can you listen to me, please? Hello? Hello? Can you look at my eyes, please?” O’Hare answered: “I can hear every word you’re saying. You can use your minute however you choose.” The man responded: “I want you to look me in the eyes.” When O’Hare still wouldn’t, the man continued: “Yeah, look down because down is what you’re going in November. So keep looking where you’re going. Okay? ’Cause this is what we’re doing after this from now until November, whether you cut these places or not. We’re going and we’re knocking on doors and we’re bringing people out. And we’re telling them where the voter locations are, and we’re helping them get there, and nothing you can do can stop us from removing you in November.” Can you hear us now?
