Try living in one of those underserved communities where it can be an all day affair only to find out that they have removed you from the rolls. For many people it is much harder than others. The reason the voting rights act require preclearence to any change in voting times or locations was the abysmal record those states had in allowing voting. Every state convention I hear about how republican counties are locating most of their polling places in white areas and few in the non white areas.

@glennlab Glenn- do you know I was born in one of the poorest u.s. cities? I keep my fingers on the political pulse
of this and other areas hit with redistricting/gerrymandering
and political curruption & graft.(mayors of 2 home city's
PROSECUTED BY FBI in 3 years)-but again Democracy is the
best vehicle in the lot. Also ,I follow aarp; and women league of voters and know what occurred in Georgia/Alabamma/and Mississippi- PLACES I DON'T LIVE.
I am not going there to protest- but I am LOCALLY VERY active. In 3 years voting in my "adoptive nieghborhood"
I've seen people using walkers to vote- yet not many young
folks ARE visable. These facts( I concied to yours about
voter rolls/ restrictions; historic) are 15 years of erosion the
democratic underpinnings; and the politicization of social institutions. I feel the cuts inflicted on those citizens who struggle against systematic reductions of thier RIGHTS;- not born there ,I from a distance fight here,that a reversal of the barriers isn't needed here also.
Respectfully

The people who don't vote are expressing that choice.

@BitFlipper I agree; which is why I disagree with people who insist everyone "must go out and vote" and those who argue that voting should be mandatory.

@Jnei I don't believe people should be forced to vote. But, in the current system, the party that succeeds in delivering The largest sense of hopelessness will always have the advantage. By making voters feel hopeless, they gain The advantage of the non-voters.

,,,I remember previous discussions , and you explained partially your system!!! I ,today see it as a bit more preferably::::
You don't have the Electoral College !!! AND a no
confidence vote means = build a concencous.!!! These 2 points are real hindrance to how a government COULD be
improved. Just on party lines, good laws the people want
are held hostage; no dialogue;stagnation- after a concencous
was reached. I value your new input.
The time of one button one result is gone

I agree. It always seems like it’s the lesser of two evils.
