RFK Jr. has thrown a grenade into the North Carolina election. He waited too long to remove his name from the ballot—then persuaded the far-right NC Supreme Court to do it anyway, an egregious violation of law that has canceled early voting indefinitely. slate.com/news-and-pol...
The North Carolina Supreme Court tossed a grenade into the state’s election on Monday.
It doesn’t say indefinitely, just to be clear. It says it will significantly shorten the early voting period. People voting overseas will probably be affected most by this due to how long it takes to ship internationally. None the less, this is a completely fucked up ruling.
Searching for motive, and without evidence, people are beginning to wonder if RFK Jr. is on Putin's payroll.
Unfortunately, we’re finding there’s a lot of ways for an embittered minority to skew the vote. If this were Democrats, there would be talk of civil war, guns etc..but there’ll be none of that from the good guys. Let’s hope there’s a big enough turnout to wipe out the evil doings.
NC is has also closed down DVM sites, so people do not have a local site to go to get the required ID to vote. NC is a cesspool of voter suppression and gerrymandering run by a republican supermajority. It’s disgusting.
Can they put the worm back in? I think I liked it more
Watch: the follow up is going to be something that interferes with election day voting in high population blue areas.
FEATURE, NOT A BUG. This will happen again in 2028 in order to fuck up mail-in voting. Bank on it.
Now we wait to see how many polling sites "run out of ballots" or otherwise have to close early.
With democrats like these…
