WATCH: Ahead of Midterms, 'Rigged' Exposes GOP's 10-Year Effort To Sabotage Democracy by Undermining Voting Rights

"The suppression of American voters is something we thought our country had moved past, and yet here we are in the 21st century still engaged in this battle over fundamental rights."
As the GOP's attacks on voting rights continue across the United States—from Georgia to North Dakota and Kansas—and a massive coalition of progressive groups has formed to break the hold that powerful corporate and wealthy interests have on American democratic institutions, the recently released documentary Rigged: The Voter Suppression Playbook aims to reveal, "in chilling detail, the dark genius behind the ten-year Republican strategy to reverse the rising demographic tide of minority voters."
Filmed during the 2016 election, Rigged was released just ahead of 2018's highly anticipated midterm elections. The documentary sheds light on strategic efforts by members of the Republican Party at all levels of government, in the wake of former President Barack Obama's historic 2008 win, to make it more difficult for Americans—particularly the young and non-white citizens who helped drive Obama's initial presidential victory—to access their constitutional right to vote.

There are newer, better, cheaper treatments for diabetes and what are the odds people in wealthy countries pay that high price in order to cover costs for what is handed out for free in developing countries and even to Americans.

Oh look. Lily the manufacturer of humalog does give it out for free.


Evil. Pure evil "Big Pharma" capitalists and their generosity went and f-cked up your "disinformation meme".

Republicans are rigging elections to win. They're anti-voter and anti-democracy.

Republicans are suppressing votes and trying to remake the electorate to win in states like Georgia and North Dakota. That's un-American.

The bullshit runs deep in your world.

A party doesn't run polling stations or decide who can or can't vote.

It's impossible for a party to move or close a polling station.

Another thing, how the f-ck would they know who someone is voting for or the tally to shut it down early with a lead.

For someone 70 years old and you sure are a dumb f-ck.

It took me 20 seconds to find who runs elections, all the requirements to vote and polling stations in Georgia and in no less than 11 languages.

Want the Tagalog version Clippy?

The Elections Division of the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office organizes and oversees all election activity, including voter registration, municipal, state, county, and federal elections. They are responsible for certification of election results as well as certifying the qualification of candidates and preparation of ballots and election forms and materials. The Elections Division provides Great Seal certification for authentication of public documents for foreign use for non-Hague countries. Along with those duties, the Elections Division maintains the Statewide Voter Registration Database to ensure that voter registration lists are current statewide. They are also accountable for investigating election fraud and enforcing state election laws.

GEORGIA VOTER IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

Georgia law (O.C.G.A § 21-2-417) requires Georgia residents to show photo identification when voting in person. This website is just one part of our comprehensive outreach and education program to ensure that citizens are aware of the photo identification requirement. Electronic versions of publications and press releases pertaining to this requirement are available here as well. If you have questions, need more information or have difficulty getting a free Voter Identification Card, you can contact your county registrar’s office or the Secretary of State’s Elections Division at:

Telephone (8:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.)
Local: (404) 656-2871
Toll-Free: (844) 753-7825
V/TTY: (404) 656-1787
Fax: (404) 651-9531

You are not required to provide identification when you vote absentee by mail.

WHAT IDS ARE ACCEPTABLE?
Any valid state or federal government issued photo ID, including a free ID Card issued by your county registrar's office or the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS)
A Georgia Driver's License, even if expired
Valid employee photo ID from any branch, department, agency, or entity of the U.S. Government, Georgia, or any county, municipality, board, authority or other entity of this state
Valid U.S. passport ID
Valid U.S. military photo ID
Valid tribal photo ID
Bring one of these six forms of identification to vote.
GEORGIA'S VOTER IDENTIFICATION CARD
If you do not have one of the six acceptable forms of photo ID, the State of Georgia offers a free ID Card. An ID card can be issued at any county registrar's office or Department of Driver Services Office free of charge.

To receive a voter identification card, the voter must provide:

A photo identity document or approved non-photo identity document that includes full legal name and date of birth
Documentation showing the voter's date of birth
Evidence that the applicant is a registered voter
Documentation showing the applicant's name and residential address
Example of a Georgia Voter Identification Card:

I wouldn't want the vote of someone who is irresponsible and cant find the time to register, keep track of 4x6cm ID card.

As for the other bullshit a party doesn't run polling stations.

It's impossible for a party to move or close a polling station.

Another thing, how the f-ck would they know who someone is voting for or the tally to shut it down early with a lead.

For someone 70 years old and you sure are a dumb f-ck.
Anything you read and want to believe is true , must be .

Oh dear. You don't understand how this works at all, despite my excellent nutshell explanation a while back.
