Of course, in recent weeks we’ve seen a range of other possible Republican vote-suppression tactics. Among other examples, in Montana, the state GOP last week used discrepancies in listed addresses to challenge the eligibility of more than 6000 voters, mostly in Democratic-leaning areas — including at least one member of the military who’s about to deploy to Kuwait. The party has now said it plans to issue more challenges.
And a flyer circulating in African-American neighborhoods of Philadelphia last week, whose authorship is unknown, falsely asserted that voters with outstanding warrants or unpaid parking tickets could be arrested at the polls.
Un-fucking-acceptable.
Any republicans out there? Knock. It. Off.
