minus-squarefoggy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up31arrow-down7·edit-212 hours agoPerfect plan! Everyone knows 18 to 22 year olds are in no condition to walk a couple miles! This will totally thwart the student vote. Bitch they walked further home from their last one night stand. And that was in a fairy costume in freezing temps the night after Halloween. Bitch they got Uber. Bitch you just gave them a social activity centered around voting. You literally just got more people to vote.
