Typical Texas bull shit
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...ers-ken-paxton
charged for a 1995 crime?
quote: A Texas man who became a national hero after he waited seven hours in line to vote in last year’s presidential primary has been arrested and charged with voting illegally.
Hervis Rogers, who is Black, became a symbol of a determination to have one’s voice heard.
“I wanted to get my vote in, voice my opinion,” he told a local ABC affiliate after his long wait to cast his ballot in the 2020 election. “I wasn’t going to let anything stop me, so I waited it out.”
But on Wednesday, according to Houston Public Media, he was arrested and charged with two counts of illegal voting.
The Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, is reportedly bringing charges that allege Rogers voted while on parole for a 1995 conviction for burglary and intent to commit theft.
AND he just happens to be black

So if you're black, the laws should not apply to you.
Good to know.

With all the corruption and irregularities surrounding your side during the election, and you have the balls to cry about this?
Typical leftist whiny baby.

The funniest part of this story is that he managed to vote while having these convictions on his record.
Apple can put the entire online universe in the palm of your hand
Banks can send you an alert the minute your bank account is out of order
Facebook can cater an online advertising campaign just for you
The ****ing government cannot even develop a system to link the criminal law record with voting systems.
Seriously comical.

What is really needed is that the next election is all about equal rights for all, and special rights for none.

Does that mean the laws should only apply to white people? But how can that be since we're always told that white folks are people of privilege?

Seven hours in line?  Residents should be demanding big changes at their boards of elections.

The liberal media always blames Republican voter suppression of poor areas for those long lines when in fact many of those long lines are in areas where the elected officials overseeing the elections are Democrats.

Quote from linked article:
Such a mix of systems makes it extremely confusing and difficult for anyone who has a felony to figure out if they are eligible to vote.
Mix of systems? All states have different rules regarding voting eligibility for felons. How hard is it to only concern yourself with the rules regarding voting eligibility in the state where you live? All this voter suppression BS, liberals act like a certain segment of the population as a whole is totally helpless.

Liberals attempt to justify their insipid political philosophy by creating victims in various areas of our society, only so that they can subsequently masquerade as knights in shining armor to rescue all the oppressed and downtrodden in the land.
