I feel like the whole hullabaloo about mail-in voting is to distract us from the other methods of voter suppression they are working on. Part of it is the BS move of closing most of the polling places, especially in the black-majority districts. (Can't the National Guard be called upon to staff polling places?) Then closing those polls early, thinking the people will be too stupid to fight back and insist on being allowed to vote as long as they are in line on time, etc. They practiced some of these tricks in primaries all over and were caught more often than not, I think. You know they've got more crap up their sleeves, and we've got to be on guard. We cannot be distracted by supposed huge leads for Biden in the polls, either. All the advantages can evaporate with the right kind of voter suppression in November.
Love, love, love this piece, John! Absolutely brilliant!
THANK YOU!
