Voting May be easy where you are. But it’s literally made difficult in a lot of places. If you are new to Texas for example, getting registered to vote is a whole ordeal. It involves ancient websites to check your registration status and then if you find out you aren’t registered, you have to go to another website, fill out a bunch of information and then you have to print it out, sign it and then mail it in. And if you made any mistakes you won’t find out for 10-15 days as the mail has to get to them, they have to look it over and then they mail you a response to tell you there are errors. On top of all of that, they have a system where they pay people to report voter registration that are suspected to be fraudulent and those registrations generally get purged without notifying the voter. So if you were a false positive (many people are) and then you find out the day you go to vote that you aren’t registered, you just don’t get to vote that year.

Harder than fascism?
Yeah, I know they go out of their way to make it hard in democratic and minority strongholds. But that’s not everyone.
