Hey Mississippian here we are one of the most diverse states when it comes to the people. It comes down to gerrymandering and suppression. We need help.

an hour away from a polling station is actually ridiculous. i also thought jobs were required to allow you time off to vote?

Unless you Commit Treason you should be Allowed to vote.

It’s the same with TN. People think we’re a red state; technically we are. However, the largest voting population here is the nonvoters

Voting Should be mandatory. Even if you show up and write in "No Preference".

in Australia (I think) voting is mandatory even if you just go and doodle on your ballot that still counts as doing your civic duty. here in the US there are tons of barriers to voting that don't exist elsewhere / are actively worked to deconstruct

“This might sound crazy” No, it sounds purposeful. We know their tactics.

The treatment of convicts after they serve their time is very strange. They should be able to vote if they are free, can participate in society and are paying taxes. They already served their sentence.

Voting should be a national holiday. Period. This is the most radical thing I could say… sad.💔💔

The USA is even more undemocratic than all the other capitalist countries around it.

If you have to gerrymander and suppress votes, how are you representing the people?😡

and, on top of all the things you guys covered that make voting difficult, they want to get rid of mail-in ballots now too

I’ve been so mad about this since I was 16. For YEARS people keep repeating the same LIES like “half the country” voted for this. Voter turnout for general elections is something like 60%. So FORTY PERCENT of eligible voters aren’t voting. Half of 60% of eligible voters is NOT HALF THE COUNTRY.

alabama has the same issue. most southern states do bc they want to keep the south poor and propagandized to feed our youth into systems that destroy their body and fund the billionaires but not our own states.

Dayamonay :
Mississippi is also one of the Blackest states and so this is downright voter suppression. Like when you think of the march from Selma to Montgomery and John Lewis being beaten so bad, this is what it's about. And when people talk about throwing away the south, this is who they want to abandon.

So as a smaller populated state, their vote is already worth more than someone like me from California and they also have all of these voting suppression laws on top of that that don’t allow millions of people to vote? 😭💀😂 DISGUSTING

Texas has this worsening issue as well. I don’t think we’re as poor, and I think more of us vote, but they’re making it more difficult for the economically disadvantaged. I fear this is common in a lot of red states.
