The GOP took >100 days to pass a budget, but 2 days to weaken your voting rights. They’re scared of their own voters—but we aren’t. Gov. Stein vetoed HB 958, and Dems will vote to uphold that veto, because we will protect every eligible voter’s right to cast a ballot that counts.

They can't gerrymander the statewide office of governor--though behind their gerrymanders they strip away his powers when they can. It's a long, hard struggle for democracy here but its defenders (and they're the vast majority) haven't given up.

The SAVE America Act: Voter Suppression in Disguise | CrisisOfTruth.org — As voting rights attorney Marc Elias explains: this is not a voter protection bill—it is a voter suppression bill. More than that, it is a partisan voter suppression bill. crisisoftruth.org/save-america...

Access to the ballot box is fundamental to a working democracy. Thank you, Gov. Stein, for standing up for voters and vetoing HB 958. Every eligible citizen deserves a clear, accessible path to make their voice heard!

Republican voters are too dumb to understand this but the politicians they vote for have been laughing at their idiocy for decades. Can't believe their luck & that their trickery has worked for so long. 30 yrs of Foxnews was a huge boost to get their corrupt agenda across to the numpties.

I will do my best to vote, and I will encourage my family and friends to vote, but all anger directed at voters or the public should be directed at elected officials. They are the ones who caused all this, and this situation continues.

Pay attention! Even the slow learners have to understand! It is 576 days of the lies and destruction! We have 75 days to unite, and change the course!

Democrats want every want every qualified American voter to be free to cast their ballots. MAGA Republicans only want old land owning white men to be able to vote. Just like in the 1800s. That's what Trump means by MAGA. Women, minority voters, the youth vote are denied their rights.

This is what NC Dems fought for: A Democratic governor to have some power against anti-democratic GOP ghouls, and to protect Voting Rights in the state. North Carolina voters must continue and vote in more pro-democracy Democrats into state legislature to keep fascists away!

Lmfao. No voter ID, shutting down bills that promote election transparency and rules to prevent ballot tampering and voter fraud while worrying about losing an Americans vote is beyond. You already lost your vote to an illegal you just don't know it yet.

Watching police tear gas nonviolent protestors, driving military vehicles, and regularly shooting and killing innocent citizens preemptively reinforces the lesson not to fight back, not to stand up, not to speak out.

The GOP doesn't govern; they loot. Nothing they do or have ever done has been about helping or uplifting US citizens. We would be significantly better off as a country if more people understood this.

#30million8/30 March in August to protest the regime. March in September to protest the fascism. March in October to protest the failed Legislators. March in November to the polls to be heard. NATIONWIDE PROTEST 8/30 RISE UP! OVERTHROW! END FASCISM IN AMERICA!

Americans need to read what's in the save act. Oh wait they love the uneducated. Release the Epstein files and remove all of them from Office. Red and blue

I will do my part to vote and encourage others to vote, but every OUNCE of outrage directed at voters or the masses should be directed to elected officials instead. THEY are the reason this is happening and continues to happen. bsky.app/profile/theg...

"You Americans need to wake up! Can't you see what's happening? Why are you ALLOWING this?" Meanwhile:

Average Americans have access to infinitesimal wealth? Maybe Illusion of but not access to. Meanwhile, I'm proud to be a member of my country, but embarrassed by all the ignorance, arrogance and "I've got mine/sucks to be you" attitudes.

Easily stated, but how exactly do we direct our outrage to elected officials? Make calls? Send emails? Which only staffers acknowledge, reluctantly I presume. This said, wouldn't you agree when we crank our cars up, we are contributing to climate change? Same true for other individual decisions.

When people make posts and memes and call for the masses to move, they should direct that energy Instead at their elected representatives. That's what I'm suggesting. You already said calls, emails, calling them out online.

If Republicans get their way. It'll be just rich white "straight" landowners that get to vote. Puffy Duffy doesn't understand that's exactly what they want. The US shouldn't have people sleeping in the streets when our representatives are participating in inside trading and RAPING the Treasury.

republicans do not believe in democracy. How many times do they have to prove it to you for you to show up and vote? Vote while you still can. They spend a lot of time looking to prevent people from voting. If they could, they can eliminate elections altogether

Actually they've got their uneducated minority under control They're scared shitless of the 75% who see their bullshit for what it is & must stop us This is their ONE shot & they're taking it These are the aholes the old GOP used to hide in the attic & they know dictatorship is they're only hope

Or women who change their name after marriage. Or anyone who lacks a passport (which will not be provided for free, and is therefore the equivalent of a poll tax; which isn't a problem for Republicans who reject our Constitution) Or --if the fascist orange has his way-- any state that votes by mail.

As a American woman born in a state other than NC and married twice with one husband deceased it has cost me $270.00 to get myself legal to vote in the case voter supression "Save Act" bill passed. The IRS sure knows who the hell I am. So F U.
