It's sickening that this happened and something definitely needs to be done to stop this from happening again.

It enrages me, honestly. Anti-democracy enrages me.

Maddening. I'd heard this was happening - that everyone knew it was going to happen.

I read about it even before the election, but it seemed that nobody was trying to do anything about it. It's an outrage.

I agree. And I really think it shoudl be checked if this a reason to contest the election.

The margins were so close that the voter suppression probably really made the difference.

I'm sure they would, in many precincts.

I was extremely disappointed in my state's low voter turnout. (I live in Wisconsin.)

Voter ID laws should not be this damn strict.

AGREED. You show up at the polls. You're a person. You're obviously over 18. You have a vote. End of story.
