    If voting didn’t matter they wouldn’t make it hard.

    My area demographics is 80% white 20% asian. My polling place is walking distance from my house. If I fell lazy and want to drive the parking lot is nice and big. In the entire history of the provisional ballot system not a single vote has been thrown out.

    The area right next to mine is nearly 100% POC and every single election there are stories on the news of multihour long waits to vote and at least once I heard that a judge tossed out a mess of votes.

    Vote! Vote! Vote! There is a reason why they are making this hard.
