        Check out @Rideshare2Vote. They are doing all they can to get people to the polls in Texas. We need reform, but in the meantime, organizations like this help.

        If elections were all above board, no voter suppression, no ridiculous gerrymandering, how many states would Republicans win? 5 or 6, definitely less than 10.

        I saw this coming 30 seconds after I found out the SCOTUS was releasing all these Jim Crow states from federal oversight. I'm sure everyone else did too. #PostReconstruction

        All in the south too. Definite correlation with changing demographics. They’re attempting to suppress votes to keep states Republican
