    Having such safeguards in place to make sure it doesn’t become an issue does seem alright to me. But they seem to be doing this as a form of voter suppression.

      Hasn’t been an issue ever, statistically. This is the GOP trying to suppress voting

        That’s… what I am saying. It’s like you think I’m in favour of their move or something.

      That’s the game, if dems were as unscrupulous they could do this too:

      Election Security is our #1 priority. That’s why we’re creating secure polling stations located throughout every major city in every state. Rural polling stations will be closed as they are not secure enough to guarantee the integrity of our elections. Rural Americans frequently go into cities for sporting events and concerts so there will be no issue of disenfranchisement when their local polling stations close.

        Republicans and Democrats going all out like this (or I guess Democrats retaliating in kind) would make for some interesting times for the US. Even more so than they are having now.
