my grandma is 95, with arthritis so bad she can barely walk, and somehow still figures out a way to vote.

Haven't read through the thread other than the jest of the first post. Bottom line, Saban makes his career off of black athletes. He could be a 10 million dollar republican supporter but he knows where his living is made. Black athletes. He knows the game. ALL college coaches make their living with the help of black athletes...this is no secret. Why this is a shock to anybody is laughable. Maybe it is time to realize the reality of the situation. ANY college football coach would fall in the same situation.
If I had the money to change the world, I would put a bat and glove in the black community and provide a baseball field, facilities, and equipment to highlight the talent that is out there for the youth that does not have that opportunity.

Good for her. Not everyone has that experience.
Just because something doesn't happen through your own lens doesn't mean its not valid.

It is for some. Not others.

I see this as a win for Saban. Now that he’s pissed off the Bama fanbase, he won’t have to worry about visiting the dump that is Tuscaloosa once he retires.

there is a few more and they know exactly which ones.

I never understood why elections were on a workday, that part really makes no sense to me. Just about every modern democracy in the world has it on the weekend or it's a holiday.
Then Mitch McConnell said it was a "power grab" and they made their intentions entirely clear to everyone.

Republicans are really comfortable with spreading misinformation. Here are the results from actual research.
A majority of voters in seven states support elements of Democrats' voting legislation and passing such legislation without a filibuster-proof majority, according to a series of new state-level surveys.
The voting rights group Fair Fight commissioned surveys with Public Policy Polling, which does polling for progressive groups, in Alaska, Arizona, Maine, Montana, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Fifty-four percent to 64 percent of voters surveyed in each state support the idea of senators passing voting bills along a simple majority — not the 60 votes currently required by Senate filibuster rules.

Politico New Poll:
What about the Democrats’ Freedom to Vote Act, which will be brought up this week in the Senate? Many of its core provisions receive majority support:
— Expanding access to early voting: 65% support, 23% oppose
— Prohibiting partisan gerrymandering: 64% support, 19% oppose
— Making it illegal to prevent someone from registering to vote: 62% support, 24% oppose
— Making Election Day a federal holiday: 61% support, 26% oppose
— Expanding same-day voter registration: 56% support, 30% oppose
— Expanding access to voting by mail: 55% support, 35% oppose
— Allowing Americans with prior criminal convictions to vote: 54% support, 32% oppose
— Expanding automatic voter registration: 51% support, 33% oppose
Finally — and these numbers are more surprising — our poll found an even split when voters were asked whether the Senate should require a majority or a supermajority to pass legislation:
We asked: As you may know, the Senate has 100 members representing the 50 states. Which of the following comes closest to your opinion, even if neither is exactly right?
— Bills in the Senate should be required to have at least 51/100 votes to pass: 40%
— Bills in the Senate should be required to have at least 60/100 votes to pass: 41%
— Don’t know/ No opinion: 19%

All of it huh? What do you have against these parts?
Are you a politician
You know that you are picking and choosing specific parts of the bill.
That’s intellectually dishonest.
Drop boxes and mail in ballots is what the dems want to cheat.
All of that cybersecurity bullshite is bullshite.
Dems will find a way to cheat.
They always have and always will.
75% of the American people believe in voter ID
Including blacks and Hispanics
In my opinion
It should be one person, one vote, with an ID, and in person.
And put purple ink on the finger after.
Anything else is a reason to cheat

See, now that's actually useful. Thank you.

Has there been any valid proof of this cheating?
Posted on 1/19/22 at 2:26 pm to silverstreak
Yes
Piles of evidence

well yes, and i'm sure most conservatives would support some elements like election day, prohibiting partisan gerrymandering(which the left does more than the right), etc.
but as always, the few good things in the bill are far outweighed by the utterly terrible things. not least of which is more power in the hands of the federal government.
