Immigration enforcement is sowing chaos in Minneapolis and across the country. Democrats, elections officials and civil rights groups fear it could interfere with this November’s elections — and are scrambling for a response. They’re warning that the White House’s deployments of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol agents could act as a voter suppression tool should armed officers conduct raids at or near polling locations, scaring citizens into staying home.

    Gosh I wonder why they’re against mail-in ballots.

    Any voter in CA is eligible, and honestly, with the number of propositions and local stuff on the ballot it’s essential to do research ahead of time regardless of your political preferences. So much easier to fill it out over a few weeks IMHO.

    Beware though, there may be new rules about needing it received rather than postmarked by the election date (which is obviously bullshit).

      They hate mail in ballots but Florida has been Republican nearly 30 years and uses mail in ballots. Their excuses are just bullshit.

      Especially with who’s still in charge of the USPS, and them purposefully delaying mail right now to set the precedent for November.
