everything we did in arizona, to get out the vote, was destroyed because almost all independents who reregistered as democrats were booted off by a “computer glitch” and didn’t allow them to vote. not to mention the 3 to 6 hour (in the arizona heat) wait time just to fucking vote.
i want to cry, i want to scream, i want out of this fucking state, and this fucking country
we could’ve won arizona, but voter suppression fucked us over, and no one will do a damn thing about it cause those in charge are bought off in the first place
This is not acceptable.
My heart is literally breaking. Everyone worked their asses off. Everyone was calling people and letting others know that they have to be registered democrat. We were all going door to door and making thousands of phone calls.
And our government goes behind our backs and fucking changes it back on them and claims it to be a “computer glitch.”
I’m furious, I’m angry, I’m sad, I’m fucking tired.
The second one still needs like 60k more signatures!!!
