    The right to vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool or instrument we have in a democratic society. Let nothing stand in your way to use it so that together we may build a truly more perfect union here in America. #vote #GoodTrouble

        Rep. Lewis, Today's news is filled with voter suppression and outright vote tampering in GA, TX, KS, and other states. We should obviously all vote - but it's so troubling to know that our votes might be meaningless due to the corrupt, complicit @GOP & their underhanded tactics.

        I just cannot understand WHY DOES @GOP feel they need to CHEAT. They are NOT the voice of We The People.

        .@GOP needs to cheat like they need to breathe. No, they're not the voice of the people - and they know it. So they cheat.

        You aren’t ‘the people’ if you don’t hold the values of #WeThePeople. You don’t research, you read. You don’t think, you listen. And, when you talk ..those aren’t YOUR words. Its what you heard someone else SAY. No facts, all emotion. #VoterFraud #WeAreRepublicpic.twitter.com/VaYXjDA02y

        .#WeThePeople voted the criminals out of OUR #House, & 3 Mil more of us voted for the democratic POTUS candidate. No "voter fraud" has been substantiated. I happen to make a living researching legal & academic matter - so don't lecture me about "facts" or parroting someone else.

        You’re a crybaby trying 2 bypass the will of the people who democratically elected a @POTUS 4 our Republic using the LEGAL electoral system designed 2 keep RURAL/farmers an EQUAL voice.

        You are a waste of my time and energy. You're a cult member. I don't engage with drunks or those who've lost the ability of discernment. You're blocked.

        If you're worried you won't have time at the end of the day to vote, check out the absentee ballot options in your state, or just make a sacrifice, set your alarm clock, and go *early*. The lines are shorter when the polls open than they are when the polls are closing.
