Is he saying more people will vote? That is what makes a healthy Democracy. He just let the cat out of the bag. Republicans power rely on people not voting.
A power grab is not calling a Senate vote to reopen the government so Trump/GOP could inflict enormous pain and suffering to millions of Americans for 35 days just so Trump can keep his tantrums costing US billions of taxpayer funds. VoteThemOut2020
WTF? Democracy now!
This excuse is unacceptable. Election day is for all Americans, what's up with this DemPhobia ?!
Wrong, SenMajLdr, it's power grab by the PEOPLE. cnni voxdotcom BuzzFeedNews nytimesworld axios BBCWorld thehill guardianworld NewYorker
This is the 21st Century VOTE BY MAIL No lines ✅ No bad weather effect ✅ No hackable machines ✅ 100% paper ballots ✅ No lost work 💰 ✅ Higher participation ✅
What a hypocrite! Can't stand it any more. Does not even hide it. Unless he thinks we don't remember
McConnell is just plain ignorant and dumb. He politicizes everything. He's just an evil, mean and hateful old man with no one who would be there for him if he ended up all alone with home health care 4 the remainder of his days.
😂😂😂😂 Mitch even Satan is going to throw you back when you arrive.
... beeeecsuse only Democrats would vote on Election Day?!? This effing overdue funeral customer.
It's time for me to go. Mitch the frog.
This old turtle needs to go. Expired a long time ago.
He's also said the statue of liberty is a whore trying to attract foreign sailors with that red light of hers,so . ...
Its called DEMOCRACY
So letting people vote is against democracy?
McConnell ! Why are you so scared of giving everyone a fair chance to vote.
How hypocritical that he talks about a power grab. He needs to look in the mirror.
kc8hps Election Day should be a Federal Holiday, and all businesses should be closed,
It’s not a power grab. Remember federal employees cannot be involved in political activities. It’s a violation of the hash act
Giving citizens the right and the time to vote is a power grab, Really? Republicans are into gerrymandering, voter suppression, Voter ID laws, purging voter rolls, restricting polling places, restricting registration days, restricting early registration so (R) can hold onto power
senatemajldr: To call efforts to make it easier for citizens of this country to exercise their right to vote a “power grab” is to lay bare the agenda of the GOP. Only one party in this country supports democracy. Hint: not yours. We see you.
LeTortue is really an 'enemy to democracy' if he believes that EmpoweringAmericans to vote is only a 'power grab' from his opposition. I wonder what he would call it if he actually supported it Lawrence
Clearly senatemajldr would have us believe only Dems will go to the polls on Election Day if it's made a federal holiday. He doesn't think members of his own party will avail themselves of the day off for the opportunity to vote. Question: Is he implying they're stupid or lazy?
You held the government hostage and workers have not been paid
How about the Federal workers work every day of the year? They get big perks, sick days, vacation days, old school health Care, pension, backpay after furlough, and retire after 20. And they want more time off. There are 2 classes . Fat gov workers and beat down citizens.
Why you can't say that GOP will not win if they let all Americans vote? SAD
What would you believe anything Senator McConnel says? Why?
Love this picture of senatemajldr face. It reads 'scared shitless'.
The people of Kentucky should be ashamed of them selves, to keep re electing someone who’s politics directly hurts them. But they are from Kentucky sooooo yea.
This is stunning. I guess he thinks “screw it, everyone knows who we are, so Ima lean in”
OH THE HORROR! Imagine a Holiday that allows the American people the time & opportunity to vote for the candidate of their choice!
Make it the first Monday in November to make it a 3 day weekend. Allow voting on Election Day only.
It is getting to be 'mark of the beast' time. Sunday laws..
I have an article showing how many nations set non-work days for voting. Most of them Mitch. Most of them. You are one sorry piece of shit.
So he's admitting that giving citizens the time to vote would be beneficial to the Democrats?
Unreal
It would not be a tragedy if every citizen who wants t vote gets the opportunity to do so.
McConnell is an enemy of the people.
Really? Or maybe they’re just afraid that people would actually go out and vote. 😏
He doesn’t care about Americans or our fundamental ideals. He only cares about his party. He puts party over country.
Preventing bills going to the floor for a vote seems like a power grab to me, you wouldn't know anything about that now would you DitchMitch
Most of the private sector doesn’t close on federal holidays. I fully understand why liberals would want federal employees to have an advantage over private sector working class when it comes to voting...
Mitch is a joke! Pathetic!
Mitch is afraid that enough people would get to vote him out of office if they could have the day off to vote
Yeah, McConnell wants to make it more difficult for actual workers to vote. They might vote for Democrats.
You know it is. But I say you liberals are so disgusting it will backfire.
And here's Australia. We have compulsory voting, and we do it on a Saturday! We have cake stalls, BBQ's & everyone just walks in, checks their name on the electoral roll, & we vote, on paper, & leave. PS we all enrol to vote once, when we turn 18, a miracle in Democracy 😊
Shame, shame, shame! This is how history will remember you, for your shameless and contemptuous disregard for democratic norms.
'Turtle'...
Or we could respect the American worker and veterans and have a holiday on the second Tuesday in November honoring the American tradition of voting.
Wha?
The only reason McConnell is saying this is that they didn't think of it first.
Remember, a journey of a thousand lies begins with a single misstep. I await the remaining lies about democracy, rights, voting, and the down home, folksy musing about kicks of a mule -- something like the people want to vote so we'll make it illegal, the mule said so.
Yes. If the country has the opportunity to vote, they won’t vote for McConnell. Not sure it’s a power grab just a rude awakening.
Ha ha ha ha ha
Wouldn't it benefit both parties?
How is this traitor not in prison!
A day to make voting easier for Americans is a power grab?
It is a regular people thing, not a rich people thing.
U ain't seen nothing yet Treason Toadie
Thanks toyour reporting we know more of how trump is trying tokill all Americans those protecting us and us living here free. Shultz stay out of the race please
Dishonesty with masked straight face!!!
But changing and closing polling stations in Democratic counties isn't?
Fine print says raises for beaurecrats and holiday only for government employees and still no voter ID! Vote it down!
Why can’t we make voting day on a Saturday on Sunday? senatemajldr this way, you won’t have to pay a dime to all the federal employees for an extra holiday.
It's a 'power grab'we all should see as a step forward in democracy.Grab,Grab,Grab.
I don’t know why he said that, Domocrats don’t even work.
Republicans vote also!
No it’s not McConnell, it’s about the right to vote. Stop choosing party over country. Wake up man, and start standing up for American people. It’s about the right to vote.
The shade of WaPo for using that photo of McConnell looking scared! Lol
Change Election Day to Saturday. We don’t need another holiday.
What are you afraid of McConnell?
What a waste of my tax dollars paying this heathen.
You should know this is reality in many countries. So if you want democracy to be real in this country you better support it and ask your Rep to do the same.
No, Mitch. That would be a power grab by the people to make it simpler for everyone to get out and vote. But then, perhaps all citizens voting scares you because you know how unpopular the GOP really is.
Turtle strikes again.
Sure Mitch, you don’t want 🇺🇸 to vote! 🇺🇸 are not voting for GOP so all you can do is keep people from voting at all! Disgusting
The lazy Dems and Unions should either get out of bed early or go vote at lunch...lots of players and cry babies out there.
senatemajldr Agree to the Election Day Holiday in exchange for a national standard for Voter ID at the Polls.
Rubbish
this man needs to take a permanent holiday
What’s even more ridiculous than the majority leader of the United States Senate being against making it easier for people to vote (in a democracy) is the fact that members of Congress get the day off.
Seems like Pelosi and McConnell think they wete Elected President. Last election proves it was Trump.
It's Fear of the Blue Wave. They can hide but it's coming.
Elections should be held on a Saturday with the option of a postal vote for those that can't make. Weekday elections are outdated and ridiculous in today's commercial situation
Seems like Pelosi and McConnell thhink they were elected President of U.S
EVIL TURTLE CORPORATE PUPPET
So giving federal employees a day off with pay to vote is a “power grab”. That is amazing coming from the guy that hid and did nothing to stop the shutdown. You could care less about federal employees not getting paid for over 30 days!!
But refusing to provide advice and consent on a nominee to fill a Supreme Court seat vacant for a year? 🅰️👌
You mean by providing millions of Americans with the ability to vote? Yes sounds like a power grab.
If Election Day were made a holiday, it would be like Thanksgiving. Folks would also take Monday off & with Tuesday, they would have a nice 4 day traveling weekend. You can't possibly think they would stick around to vote.
Just like the GOP likes to steal elections by limiting people the right to vote.
Allowing people better access to the polls is a power grab?
McConnell needs to be exposed for the fraud he is
McConnell needs to crawl back into his carapace and let someone who cares about democracy lead the Senate
Democrats are mostly off everyday. They have no excuse not to make an election.
Voting is a personal privilege, not a holiday. Would probably be used for trips, parties and the like. Leave it the way it is. If an individual wants to vote, it will entail a personal commitment.
IT SOUNDS LIKE MITCH IS AFRAID OF THE VOTERS
McConnell is becoming unfluffed. Calm down Mitch.
The look on senatemajldr face seems to be saying “whoops did I just say that out loud”.
So fostering greater participation by our citizens in our Democracy is a power grab senatemajldr? Let’s hope so, this government should be of, by, and for the people, not the corporate minions like you!
seems like neck flab doesn't want too many people to vote... gotta make it harder NOT easier!
How is it a power grab!! Might even benefit the republicans?! A ... unless they like that those working hourly wage don’t usually or can’t take the time to do so!!!
Stupid old man...
Oh, is it anything like GOP changing the rules during voting, like saying Indians living on the reservations needed a street address on a photo ID. Or, maybe it's them moving and/or closing voting places making it harder for minorities to vote. McConnell just shut the hell up.
Hilarious!!!
Way to find the most villainous pic of all time Jesus
rowedl
Because Republican Gerrymandering, restrictive voter ID laws which impact POC, students, and the poor, and the weakening of the Civil Rights Act weren't power grabs. Riiiigghhhhhtttt......🤔
Elections are not a Democratic Party staple of power. All voters republican democrat libertarian or any other should celebrate our democracy by making Election Day a national Holliday.
No it’s scares you because you are afraid if you do t pad the voting you won’t win.
Mitch is afraid Mrs Mitch will be out of a job in 2020.
Why don’t they have it on a Saturday or a Sunday? If they continually have it on a Tuesday, there are working people that are tired after they are done working. They don’t want to stand in the long lines because our voting system is such a mess. National Holiday Yes
No a power grab is changing the Parliamentary procedure to override a rule from 60 vote majority to a simple 51 vote majority. A power grab is refusing to hold SCOTUS hearings for a year ahead of an election. A power grab is voter suppression by gerrymandering.....
Republicans Blocking voters is an attempt to hold on to power by dirty tricks.
Does that mean gerrymandering is the only thing keeping Republicans alive in city, county, state and Federal elections? senatemajldr Are Republicans dead in the country so you refuse to make it easier to vote?
The ole power-grabber himself fearful of a power grab by the People.
It’s a power grab in the sense Dems would gain power if more people were able to access polling stations. Is he acknowledging that the majority don’t want him or his party? mcconnell
Can you believe this is how the Democrats are spending their time! This is an outrage!
senatemajldr -- Can you please explain to me why making it easier for all citizens to vote is anything other than helping democracy? Is the problem that the words democracy and Democrat are too close?
McConnel you are a hateful man
urokiamok You guys turn all the news inside and out. Your all fake news
Why? Is it because more Americans would be able to vote?
If democrats think it’s such a needed holiday why didn’t They do it when Obama was President and they controlled both houses? Because Now they are playing politics with it .
It his guy gets elected again, then everything he does after then is not his fault. It’s the fault of all the voters in his state.
This statement is hardly worthy of ink.
Wow, no
Umm I didn’t realize democrats worked and needed off to vote. Weird. This with out a doubt would help the right more than left.
How so? Why are you scared? I’m an independent. I say this makes sense and lawmakers should pass this and Pres shld sign.
Who would want to have fewer people voting? What are they afraid of?
Power Grab is when you 1) deny hearing to a SCOTUS nominee for a full year 2) deny holding a vote on reopening the government that house had already passed 3) when you rush the hearing of a SCOTUS nominee when there all sorts of doubts and concerns. Need more examples?
I'm kinda confused by this move... Making it a public holiday would just alow more conservatives the time to get in to vote... Isn't that counterproductive for the democrats?
GOP only wins (with their policies favoring the rich and Corp America) when voting is restricted!
have lost all respect for this man. his own doing!
%^ Him, HYPOCRITE ALL we BEEN SEEING is senatemajldr POWERGRAB, USSupremeCourt BENCHES & DECOURM of the way the SENATE WORKS. LIARSCHEATERS&THIEVES are SCARED . Boy BYE! 2020
Because ensuring United States Citizens their right to vote is a “Power Grab.” People, our government hates us and does not want us having rights. Fight the every step of the way.
God forbid every American can vote!
Yep, a power grab. Not common fucking sense. Just a power grab.
DON'T ALL AMERICANS VOTE?
Idiot
Vote on a weekend, but no hand ballots, day-of-election-registering, advance voting (unless medically handicapped or traveling), no online or driver's license registering or voting. Picture ID required. Vote all day Saturday and Sunday if needed - that will shut up the Democrats.
I think that's a great idea. Go dems.
So making it easier for working people to vote is somehow a 'power grab'? Really?
It would allow more Americans to vote on Election Day. What's the problem Mr Mcconnell?
Yes Mitch. It’s clear that you believe in voter suppression. Win anyway you can!
senatemajldr 🦃💩👺
And mcconnell is a big fat ass. Voting on Tuesday is crazy with out it being a holiday. Republicans seem to not be able to help people. Why?
They have been intentionally suppressing the vote for decades
What are you afraid of Mitch?
Interesting
Hope he gets voted out the evil turtle
Isn't this pretty much saying, blatantly, that if the vast majority of Americans are given every opportunity to vote on election day, that the government would be more liberally represented? suppressthevote
What’s he so scared of. Republicans would get to vote as well.
Like the GOP grabbed on the Supreme Court?
Power grab! Let me see! Who knows about that better than anyone? I remember! Mr. Dinosaur 🦖
Of course he does if it doesn’t come from Mitch then it’s a big resounding NO he’s the most obstructionist politician in history .
Don’t federal employees have enough paid days off a year already!?
no it is enabling everyone to get to do their right.
Great idea....better yet every state should have vote by mail...everyone who has an address is automatically registered to vote!
McConnell is absolutely correct.
Mitch- why are so against making it easier for Americans to vote?
Go on and let them have their day off on Election Day. It would afford plenty more time to dig up bogus absentee and late ballots.
So was the reason why his wife married him
Mitch it’s time you retire
Illinois state employees have, for years, major election days off work, paid. That’s what happens when you organize a union.
How?
Making it easier for more Americans to vote is very patriotic not a power grab. What is Graham afraid of if more people could vote?
senatemajldr , and I use the term leader loosely, why would anyone who purports to support democracy demonize a movement to help more people vote? Maybe because they take a lot of money from Russia?
McConnell is 2 damn UGLY 2 have 2 look at often he should retire he's made enough $$$ off US GOVT N INSIDE INFORMATION (PROBABLY) tired of lookn at these ppl FEDERAL HOLIDAY 2 VOTE IS A GOOD IDEA, MCCONNELL GO AWAY TIRED OF LOOKN AT U SEN NO CHIN!!!
Don’t need it
Why scared of being voted out 😡🐸
Keep going taitor 🐢. Gerrymandering and voter suppression can only work for so long.
'McConnell says bill to make Election Day a federal holiday is a 'power grab' FOR DEMOCRACY. ' Fixed it.
Scared Mitch ?
What a hack Mitch is.
So... If it is a federal holiday... Who is going to run the polls?
What's the matter, Mitch? If people could vote, you repugs wouldn't have a snowball chance in hell? Why is that, Mitch? Why do you think that is? Huh? Hey, let's get rid of gerrymandering and the electoral college and see what happens then. Give the rich another tax break, Mitch!
Making people vote. Is a power grab. How ancient is this man 😳😳
So is your move to close the Govt..
Change the voting day to Saturday and Sunday. That should do it.
Most voters on election day are Republicans
Republicans believe in Nationalism, they don’t believe in Democracy
Self preservation.
I guess were just going to dismantle democracy in plain site.. more than normal GOP gags
How can democracy be a power grab? Then what were the GOP's gerrymandering and vote suppression for again?
Goddamn the oppressors of true democracy.coal really ruined America
He’s a sick puppy.
WOULD THAT NOT BE A POWER GRAB BY THE PEOPLE … YOU CAN READ RIGHT ... 4 THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE .. YA THOSE DEPLORABLES YOU REP … DUDE WAKE THE F --UP !! thehill nytimes latimes
A power grab because more people will be able to vote? Lol
Amen DNC need to push this hard. Believe most Americans feel that it's an important day and given all the delays in voting taking place it gives them time to stay in line. Heck make it election weekend, the 1st weekend in November with Monday a holiday.
Why not just have all elections on a Saturday (or postal votes for those who don’t want to vote on the Sabbath) like we do here in Australia?
Why on earth would we want to make it easier for people to vote?
Why does the face of EVERY Republican of the House or Senate always seem to be in a perpetual frown? McConnell should just replace all of his photos with sad face Emoji’s. That would, at least, look a bit cheerier than he does.
A power grab by 🇺🇸 to wrestle our country back from 🇷🇺!
Because if people can vote Republicans lose power. There power is dependent on thwarting democracy
Every man and woman has one vote. GOP, Democrats, Independents ....all have one vote. So how is allowing everyone to have opportunity to vote a power grab?
vile and disgusting man
Advice from a power grabber....
Better a Democratic power grab to get voters out to the polls than the Republican power grab that keeps voters of colour away from the polls.
Republicans are terrified of voters participating in elections.
He’s so out of touch with reality. Or is he another Putin puppet?
Or maybe just enable everyone an opportunity to vote
Then vote on Saturday or Sunday or Both. Mitch must only be able to count to 5. He must have big brain like Trump.
Because allowing people to vote is a problem for his team? Crazy.
A holiday for everyone or just federal workers!?
Let’s get rid of Columbus Day as a federal holiday and switch it for Election Day.
People often ask how Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has such a exaggerated frown. Actually, he was born with it ...
He’s just pissed cos he didn’t think of it..
it is, which is why gop is the party responsible for vote rigging & gerrymandering bluewave2020
POWER GRAB!? What do you call gerrymandering and voter suppression MitchMcConnell? Your GOP has been at it for years!
McConnell is a living and breathing attack on Democracy.
If by “power grab” MM means protecting the Constitution and empowering all Americans to participate in our democracy, then yes, it’s a power grab
Keep deluding yourself. You Mcconnel are the king of power grabbers.
I have taken voting days off forever. Did not ask permission, I said I was not working. Simple.
Why doesn’t anyone pursue this line of thinking? Ask follow-up questions! Put him on a hot seat where he must explain his rationale! Dementia might be hiding in plain sight!!
Don't Republicans vote, too?
Let’s just have the election on Twitter , the one with most likes wins. That way Russia can influence who wins. Oh geez that’s already been done ! My bad .
What a shock that he is against making elections easier for all eligible Americans to participate in
Would that be 'Power to the People' Mitch?
What an ass. And I don’t mean that in a good way....
He makes me sick!!
SenMajLdr Mitch McConnell is the most immoral American politician since John C Calhoun, and will be remembered as an accomplice to the destruction of our democratic republic
What an idiot. They going down one waynor the other.
Riiiight. Because Democrats would be the only ones who’d get the day off and vote whereas they might not have otherwise 😂 how is that even a thing when supposedly we’re all no good layabouts living on welfare and therefore wouldn’t need the day off to vote. Make up your mind!
Considering an Election Day holiday would include all Democrats, Independents and even Republicans, does senatemajldr ‘s argument make sense to anyone? Not me!
McConnell is such a sad sad man.
Amazing. GOP is so obviously against increasing representation. They are always in favor of restricting voting and against more effective voter registration. They are in favor of gerrymandering and against fair redistricting. They're admitting they don't have popular support.
Man, he looks like death.
It's only a Democrat power grab if your goal is reversing a century of civil rights progress, and the creation of a one party state where the Republicans are perpetually in power (the end of America's representative constitutional democracy).
Your party just stole the WH by voter suppression and selling our country out to the Russians, now you act like it’s a deviant idea to make it easier for citizens to vote! This idea comes from people that have no idea about how we the people live in our communities.
FOOL
How is making it easier for working people to vote a power grab on one party? In my small town, many people work jobs more than an hour away. Most leave before polls open and return after the polls close. My town is majority Republican. senatemajldr is wrong.
White men like me make me so sad
The man is a sleazy, Uber-partisan traitor to the oath he swore to protect, defend the Constitution. That voter suppression and gerrymandering he’s so fond of, by the way, is the true power grab.
So allowing more people the freedom to exercise their right to vote is a power grab? So then by that logic stopping it is power hoarding.
The bill's proposal of online registration with proof of signature by ' (i) in person, the individual provides the appropriate State or local election official with a handwritten signature; or (ii) the individual submits with the ballot a handwritten signature'. Path to fraud
I can see how YOU would see fair voter access as a 'power grab'. You NEED an unfair advantage to compete. You and the elites have MULTIPLE holidays, why not the proletariat?
rational ppl understand what he means. This is simply a ploy to get more UNREGISTERED, ILLEGAL and DEAD VOTERS to the polls If Democrats love votes so much, the DNC wouldn't have suppressed Bernie Votes
He's right, there are more Democratic supporters who are disenfranchised then GOP. Mitch is a traitor to his oath to the Constitution but he does know how to manipulate politics.
What kind of stupidity is that....? Wouldn’t these paid holiday leaves apply to both republicans and democrats alike.... so where is the power grab.... this man has definitely got to go...!!!
Great idea Mitch McTurtle
And Mr Turtle has spoken.
Why is the Democratic Party the only voters in America Federal Holiday effects/ benefits all Americans!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
senatemajldr Kids are off school on Election Day. It IS an unpaid holiday because someone has to stay home and watch them.
senatemajldr God forbid that the government of the USA allows WeThePeople to vote for their own president. Instead we have an ElectoralCollge & Russia to do it for us... thanks GOP SAD!!!
The Majority of the work force in America doesn’t get every stinking federal holiday with pay
Turtle has done great things for Kentucky. Only 57% of workforce work. Over 8% on disability, twice the national average, ranked 4 for poverty. Of course he doesn't want them to be able to take time off. They might vote for a better way of life. GOP senatemajldr
If more people voting is a power grab, then it’s a power grab BY THE PEOPLE VOTING!
Mitch is right the Democrats want to give people the power to cast their vote!
It seems the American people are being pushed to claw back their democracy from people who have vowed to serve them. That is a real shame.
McConnell AGAINST VOTING? Putin has to be behind this. GOP senatemajldr
senatemajldr should lead based on his constituents and focus on our country and the divide we are facing
Whaaaaaat?
Republicans live in fear of a government of the people, for the pep, by the people.
You’ve got early and absentee. A holiday is just another free pay day for govt workers and banks.
Are you Afraid of people voting Mitch?
Voters are scary. Mitch is gazing into a new future. First they vot down the Electoral College. Next they’ll dismantle the party system. ✝️💩!!! Can you say DEMOCRACY!?!?
senatemajldr elections have consequences. Grow up!
Remember his face America... He wants you to think voting doesn't matter, He laughs when black and brown voters are suppressed, He doesn't think women should vote, He doesn't want LGBTQ people to vote, He fears your vote, He fears you... Remember his face when it's time to vote.
So... not making it a national holiday is a means of voter suppression if one follows his reasoning to its logical conclusion.
Why does mcconnell not want everyone to be able to vote? Why is he tied to Russia? Why won't he and repubs stand up to Trump? Why is money the only thing he is interested in?
Well, SenMajLdr would know a “power grab” when he sees one!
Because people will vote ?
Lol. He can't wait to watch this in a million election ads. What a jagoff
If it were presented as bi-patrician how would it be a power grab unless of course the GOP is not interested in higher voter turn out ?
Trying to steal democracy back from Putin?
We don’t need one more federal employee freebie - shoot that bill down like Wyatt Earp at the OK Corral.
Republicans work very hard at making it as difficult as possible for people to vote, it should be a surprise to no one that they don’t support giving Americans more opportunities to vote.
We all need to come out of our shell and vote Mitch! Plus, We, Little turtles ARE the Majority! Isn’t that going to be fun!!
I can’t believe what I am reading from a bunch of delusional democrats . Safe guard the vote process to safe guard democracy. Your minions of illegals are voting now and u find no issue with it! That is disturbing. Voter harvesting is a total scam!
More like a power grab by the people but of course that would be unacceptable!
Did he think he was using his inside voice when he said this? Because, it seems pretty dumb to let these words actually escape his mouth. Now, he's backed into a corner to defend it without sounding like a slave to his dictator.
DaveKelley6 Enabling more eligible voters to vote is a 'power grab, but Republican gerry-mandering and broad efforts to stifle the vote are just fine. Hypocrite of the first order.
When you know there are more Democrats registered to vote, this is the response you get.
Every time Mitch opens his mouth, something stupid or evil comes out of it.
Republican leadership is pure evil
He is a laughing stock... Beyond fatuous.
Ok I’m serious there needs to be a warning before posting that turtle man’s face come on! 😩
Like he doesn’t do this the devil
It is probably the most important day in the four year cycle and should have always been a national Holliday. As for a power grab, it just goes to show you how the republicans will cheat, lie and illegally block Americans from exercising their constitutional duty. EVIL PRICK!
The king of power grabs said what?
Typical republican🤮afraid they might lose. Very un America

Enough with the accompanying pics of Mitch! We know what he looks like, just stop. He literally gives me the chills.
A power grab for what?! More like a power-take from the GOP. PopularVotes ArchaicElectoralCollege
Republican mentality is to suppress voters who don't agree with their racial ideology!!!
Voter suppression is a major electoral strategy for the republicans and everyone knows it, so why try and hide it. The republicans campaign slogan should be... When Americans vote we lose.
Yeah democracy its self is a power grab I guess huh?
never mind what disenfranchised Americans think. No no, keep them away from the polls.
How the hell is letting people celebrate their right to VOTE!!! How is that a power grab? Making people excited to vote is a wonderful thing
I bet it would be really hard to find someone in the history of the US Senate that has grabbed more power than McConnell... he's abused his position diabolically... for years, he's acted like he 'owns' the Senate and the Courts... despicable... he should be somehow removed...
Showing your true voter suppression beliefs. Let’s be proud of the turtle man.
sure Columbus, being well versed in the whole sinking thing, would be okay with sinking his holiday and floating a new inclusive one.
Thought for Today: If McConnell is so against a new federal holiday, maybe congress should just change one out. I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t hurt Columbus’ feelings if we took away his holiday and gave it to voters. Even the venerable Santa Maria ran aground and sank, so I’m prett
'What kind of a country do you think this is, a democracy or something?' - Republicans
Why is this man so hateful and nothing is never right in his sight? All I know what is in you will come out of you. ❤️🇺🇸
Insanity- GOPComplicitTraitors
Let them trade Election Day for Presidents Day. senatemajldr That’s what Private companies do, give the Unions a choice of which one they want to give up to take off Election day. They already get two holidays in November.
. Compromise: Move President's Day to November! Rename it: Elect a Real President Day, Putin Denial Day Constitution Day Freedom Day FKKKYouMitch Day senatemajldr .
I’m confused why this day is not yet a holiday? Really, power grab? exhausted
senatemajldr elections have consequences and grassroots american are going to have the power from now on...gop 40 yrs of power grab is over!
What's the matter Mitchie, got no balls? Oh no, you DO have big balls , you just have no guts. With EVERYBODY voting on a day where everybody can, you in particular and your obnoxious GOP would be trounced. And the world will REJOICE.
It’s really not that hard to grab power from a geriatric turtle.
Well that speaks volumes!
What a scared, impotent, little man!
Spoken by the master power grabber himself
So sad after what Republican have done so long!
When working people vote, they vote democratic
If you want to have true democracy, you need to consider convenience of voters to cast votes in large numbers. By avoiding voters you are undermining democracy with hypocrisy and use of jargons. Stop pointing out democracy to others like Venezuela
Sounds like he scared
APPARENTLY THE GOP DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO VOTE .... BECAUSE GOP REPRESENT CORPORATE ELITE INSTEAD OF THE PEOPLE
Sounds like you don't want people to vote Yertle.
Republicans don't want people to vote. Period. The end. senatemajldr McConnellPOS
McConnell is obviously suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's Only a GOP fool would see it that way as they are used to pushing underhanded laws designed to circumvent the constitutions protections for all Americans
To McConnell, the very idea of majority rule constitutes a power grab.
Only the GOP is allowed power grabs, right, senatemajldr? Even though this bill is actually about repairing the damage to voting rights caused by Republicans. They’re not trying to push elections in their favor with this bill. Hey! More projection from the right.
nice, so predominantly poorer people shouldn’t vote. doesn’t sound very democratic to me....
Why does he look like that
no its the right thing to do thats why you dont like it
Yes, it is a power grab!! (Hell froze over, I agree with senatemajldr ) Isn't that essentially what elections are - people grabbing power!? This is another sad (!) example of the Republican's desperate attempts to maintain power and their OVERT efforts re: voter suppression.
What are you afraid of SenMajLdr ? Perhaps allowing legal voting on a day off will expose the gop for the voter suppression party they are...
I hope he has stage 4 cancer.
Obviously More time for the schmuck leftists to round up more illegal voters etc.
powergrabvoting = democracy
Because only dems would be able to take advantage of a day off to vote 🙄
Yea, you wouldn’t want participation in a democracy because then you might have to do what the people want and not what’s best for your cronies. That’s if you still had a job. One of the most anti-democracy, anti-middle class, anti-American citizens ever. Mitch McConnell
We don’t need more days that people are paid to not work.
But about your Russian ties, senatemajldr?🍿
Pot calling the kettle black
Disgraceful!!!
Tell me how giving Americans a day off to make it easier to vote is a power grab? Do you think, McConnell, that only Democrats work during the day, so only they would benefit? Do you think all republicans are so rich they can easily take the time to vote
DitchMitch2020
Giving people the opportunity to vote is so undemocratic....
Yup! Letting more people vote is good for the Democrats... what does that tell you, Mitch?
Maybe if your political party suffers from more people voting you shouldn't be in power?
Vote him out
SCOTUS stealing NUCLEAR Mitch whines like a baby when legislatation to insure free & fair elections is introduced. Guess the power grabber can’t deal when caught & prevented from power grabbing senatemajldr
Yes Mitch, by the people.
history will not look kindly to mitch unless he has his own scrooge event
McConnell ought to be wearing a Russian flag lapel pin. If he’s against making it easier to vote, then he’s not really representing American values.
I watched him say this. This is one frightening dead soul!!!
Any politician or leader who claims that making it easier to vote is bad for you does not have your best interest at heart. A true leader would respect your voting rights even if it hurt him. McConnell is evil and doesn't view you as worthwhile. Resist these fascists.
Can this guy get any more deplorable?
Because it would make it easier for people to vote ...
A power grab by the GOP.
Many countries vote on a Sunday
I find it funny that Republicans always say that Democrats don’t work or have jobs, yet when a holiday is proposed for Election Day, they claim it will benefit Democrats! Hypocrisy
For Mitch, power is gerrymandering and voter suppression. The GOP wants less democracy, not more.
Federal government employees get enough days off in the year, I work to hard and long in the private sector to be paying for someone to have a day off to go vote
Bars and liquor stores used to be closed on Election Day. Why not
Yes, people voting is always bad for GOP
If you make it a holiday then make it the law to vote. If you don’t vote you will pay a fine equal to your days pay with benefits.
Well if there is anyone who knows what a power grab looks like, it’s you.
Giving time for all people to have time to vote is now a power grab. What will the GOP come up with next. Here's an idea, why not only allow rich white men to have the right to vote - that would make McConnell very happy.
The fool just openly admitted that voter suppression is a 'real' Republican election strategy.
It certainly would be bad for republicans if everyone was able to vote. That’s a fact, not a “power grab”.
Because God forbid we have fair and free elections as we spout freedom around the world.
Because they know they can’t win if everyone votes. Next thing we know SH Sanders will be telling us God wants some people to vote but not everyone.
I will trade Columbus Day for Election Day if that will help.
Wha? Making sure everyone can vote is a power grab? So you think GOP would lose in an open unhampered election?
And Mitch would know about power grabs...Merrick Garland
I think the power grab here is that neck going for his face.
POS.
To McConnell allowing voters to vote is a power grab.
The GOP knows that if democracy was allowed to work at its full potential they would lose . Thus cheating , voter suppression, gerrymandering, foreign influence
What are u afraid of Mitch? senatemajldr
A nice way to prevent 54 people from deciding the fate of 800,000 wouldn’t you say?
Lol forgive us for advocating for inclusion
Why don’t we petition the American voters? It’s time we stop 600 people from deciding the fate of 350,000,000 Americans. Let’s not forget, 54 people shut the government down, denying 800,000 workers a paycheck. Change is coming.
I would like to purpose that the Super Bowl be played on Saturday, with Sunday off to recover. Better yet, make it a national holiday with Friday off,so we can prep for the game! Get your priorities in order , lol.
Like gerrymandering for the GOP? That kind of power grab?
Enabling voting access is only a power grab if you’re restricting access to stay in power
Like Trump, McConnell continually tells 180 degree lies, not power grab by Dem, power loss of GOP
Democrats will do anything to win from having the dead vote to non citizens, to promoting illegals.
“Power grab” McConnell is disgusted with is called democracy. The Turtle’s days as Senate Majority Leader are numbered.
Just hold the election on a Saturday!! Not hard!!
Mitch ought to know what a power grab is by now... that’s all he’s been doing for a very long time. ThursdayThoughts
Don’t you want everybody that can vote,VOTE! What power grab?
Does anyone believe Lord Sauron any more?
Making it more convenient to vote is a power grab. What does that say about the appeal of your party Mitch?
Why does he assume that more voters = more democrats?
McConnell should read the Constitution.
So gerrymandering is fine, but a national Election Day isn’t? Hmmm, OK 😠
1) It's weird that election day isn't a national holiday, and it should be. 2) McConnell pretty much is admitting that suppressing the vote is the best way Republicans can win.
True colors...
Headline: Assturtle Hates Democracy
THIS--HE--is Pure Evil.
Makes me so angry. Another example why this racist turtle is single handily is ruining this country. The man would rather see the country burn than let evolve. He knows “conservative” way of thinking will eventually die if they don’t do something drastic.
Democracy is a power grab!?!
This is very upsetting. It makes me believe that the republicans got voted in by rigging the votes. Having a day for all to reach the polls might boot them out once and for all.
blocking it is a power grab. it’s clear the GOP can’t win without cheating.
I think it’s the most wonderful thing they could do. Patriotic. Mitch is just a spineless trump shill. Another boy of Putin’s!
The GOP is a narcissist party. They don't care about others, they accuse others of what they themselves are guilty of and now they are lying. Only caring for their perceived image. Narcissist sums it up.
No. It’s a way to allow all citizens to be involved in the process. Something he attempts to suppress. That’s why he’s still there. We need it to be a holiday. This is the senate majority leader folks. Take note!!
No one knows a power grab like Sen. McConnell. He’s the master of power grabbing, be it thru lying, cheating & stealing. An act of integrity like a national holiday for elections must shiver his timbers.
Making it possible for more people to vote is a 'power grab'? We know where senatemajldr is coming from...
senatemajldr knows the GOP are dying out and they can only win by cheating.
How could a holiday for everyone be a Democratic power grab? Is that an admission that he doesn't want everyone eligible to vote to show up at the polls?
we need to stop this. pass a resolution banning turtles from holding public office! it's an outrage!
lol...why are scared of more people being able to vote?
But won't all voters no matter their party get equal time off? Seems non partisan and opportunity for all voters to get time to vote. Unless he likes the underclass working and not voting cause that is a Republican power grab.
Is he saying Democracy is Democratic, so he opposes it? Cool
😆😅😂🤣😆😅😂🤣😁😆😅😂🤣😁 he's suck a joke!!! I can smell the GOPs desperation
He's so FOS... If the Government Of Putin had any good ideas, they could get votes too.
It is. In the sense it takes the GOP's power to suppress votes away.
It speaks Volumes that GOP leadership admits that the party is scared of Americans voting. Think about that.
actually it is a 'power grab' by the American People - we want to be able to vote like much of the civilized world does - we don't want to be removed from voter rolls by partisans, we don't want tainted voting machines, we want time to vote, we want fair voting rights in USA.
McConnell is Wrong. This is a great idea considering the long lines and trying work around job kids and voting
I've heard people say he's smart but I don't think he is. He is a willing Trump puppet. He also has his own agenda which doesn't include the well being of the American people. He's despicable. He needs to go away.
Voting is a power grab? In a democracy? People, we are so screwed if the GOP stays in power. Vote them out!
Looks scAred. They can’t win withou cheating
No a power grab is letting realDonaldTrump to declare a national emergency when there isn’t one 🤬🤬
Showing that republicans know that their party is dying
I have never seen a turtle that needed so much to be made into soup. Mitch, its time to retire.
You need to be in Jail
Making it easier for people to vote should be a no-brainer.
Is it a Power Grab to allow more people to vote? Give us a break, Mitchie.
Unbelievble. They know fair elections spell doom for them.
How transparent can you possibly be? I wonder why you aren’t in support of high voter turnout? Hmmm. 🤔
I say let’s get rid of Columbus Day and replace with Election Day.
*munch munch* 'power grab' *munch munch*
If it is a power grab, does that mean the Democrats really represent the will of the people? 🤔
Making it hard for people to find the time to vote seems like the power grab to me.
In other, correct words- GOP didn’t think of it first.
Republicans will get the day off too
He has dropped all pretense that he is working for the people it’s all orange all the time for the turtle please make him go the way of Paul Ryan do nothing unless it benefits him personally
💔🇺🇸💰
why does both voting and truth have a liberal bias according to conservatives?
McConnell is so pathetic. Vote him out in 2020.
Omg —his face—what a face
How is it a power grab to make it a holiday for every American to be given the chance to use their right to vote
A day for all to vote is a power grab? What are you afraid of Mitch? Are you afraid that if all Americans vote they will vote you and the republicans out of power?
And 'Muffler Mouth' McConnell has spoken on 'power grab'....the same guy who denied a legit SCOTUS Dem. appointment ....start 4 starters.
Sunday?
As a proud Authoritarian. Senator McConnell is just being a loyal soldier to the Trump's GOP, the Banana Republicans.
tired old white men's last gasp at clinging to power. Of course it should be a holiday. Mcconnell is concerned about everyone getting a day off. I work 250+ a year..how many does he work..135?.so about half the time a regular person does and complaining about us getting a day off
This is an excellent idea, and would increase access to democracy.
This is an 'emergency.'
Careful now, that face might freeze.
Yep to put his sorry ass back to the house. where he should be,
A power grab is the GOP drawing only 3 Democratic districts in NC because they couldn't find a way to only draw 2. gerrymanding VoterSupression VoterFraud
No - it makes sense to give everyone the opportunity equally to exercise their right to vote. Then we would not have students in the schools that are polling places.
So trade voterid laws for a federal holiday or hold elections on a Sunday. Why can you people not compromise. TermLimits
I just find it so difficult to believe that McConnell is not animatronic.
Clearly. I knew they were up to some sneaky shit proposing all Americans be provided a day off to participate in our democracy. With the majority leader’s keen sense of inclusion I am sure legislation for a federal poll tax and literacy test is in the works.
He means when the ppl have the power it’s a power grab? That’s exactly what needs to happen.
afraid that this holiday would mobilize more Democrat voters and republicans?Cheeze. Pretty telling if he is. statement alone a form of voter suppression?And doesn’t say much for how the party feels about federal workers. Well we already know about that ah SHUTDOWN.
A party wanting power is acceptable 1 man blocking a Senate floor is abuse of power
I see, making it easier for more Americans to vote is a 'power grab' by Democrats. You don't have much confidence in your party to get votes, then, do you, Mitch? What a sad, sorry lot you Republicans are!
If one views making it easy for legal citizens to vote as a “powergrab” it means they know they are the minority and need to suppress voting in order to attain/retain their position. OldWhiteMan
Because it is!
Because he knows GOP ideas suck so they can't get majority of votes honestly
Mitch prefers gerrymandering instead.
McConnell is repeatedly demonstrating why he too is UNFIT
Republicans have always advocated against equal opportunity in voting. The poor and disenfranchised are able to be kept under control by white, wealthy, old men through this, gerrymandering and other voter suppression techniques.
make Election Day a holiday and get rid of early voting or keep early voting and no holiday. To do both is counterproductive
Right, why would anyone do something to help people exercise their right as a citizen to vote. Crawl back into your shell you hypocritical putz.
More GOP attempts to suppress the vote. They want to roll back voting rights and a national holiday specifically to encourage voting will make it harder to achieve voter suppression. Voter suppression seems to be the only way they think they can win - can't sell their ideas?
...as opposed to a power sucking by repubs...in not making it a national holiday...?
Is this guy serious?
Spoiler: it’s not. This headline sux.
I think it's time to fit McConnell with one of those faux pregnancy prosthesis & make him wear it for a full week and watch him sleep in discomfort and waddle around all day and not being able to get up and down oh and include an attachment that gives him painful shocks all day
senatemajldr belongs in HELL! 😡
Wait. What?
The ‘ideals’ & bigotry of the GOP riding into the sunset. NewsHour TheDemocrats
Is China man son-in-Law SenMajLdr crying already fear of loosing the Senate in 2020
Old- Export democracy New- Import democracy
This is a prime example of power hunger, greed, and despotism.
How?
THE REPUBLICANS ARE ''SCARED '' WHY
How the hell does ensuring that ALL CITIZENS are able to exercise their constitutional right a power grab? The Republican Party has been working hard for decades to suppress votes of those that will VOTE THEM OUT! they are showing their true colors!
McConnell, get real. Republicans woukd have it off, too. Are you scared Trump and you have made so many Republicans do angry that they won't vote Republican?
First I've heard, but makes good sense for everyone
Turtle turtle turtle
If anyone knows about power grabs it would be McConnell and the GOP. He's a snake. (My apologies to actual snakes, noble animals. Creepy, but noble in their own way.)
McConnell -- If more people vote that's a 'power grab' for Democrats. Only to tone-deaf Republicans is 'Democracy' a power grab while having unlimited, unreported dark money flowing to your re-election campaign is 'Freedom'.
New first line on McConnell's resume. CEO of voter suppression....
Liberty_Chip Hey WaPo, I love you, but please don't write headlines like this. 'Mitch McConnell says XYZ' makes it sound like the thing he's saying is assumed to be true, so when people see this headline and don't bother to read the article, they'll likewise assume that's the conclusion.
Why is he so anti democratic he’s scared people are learning about his corruption. shitStain
Yep. Letting voters vote more easily bad for GOP. But great for democracy.
Power grab are the GOP efforts at gerrymandering, their efforts at promoting idea of rampant voter fraud and need for IDs, the disenfranchising of minorities by various means which are essentially efforts to keep turnout low to undermine the impact of changing demographics.
If I were a Republican, I’d want to suppress voter turnout too.
No - a power grab is refusing to hold a vote on a Supreme Court justice for nearly a year. MerrickGarland
When Power becomes frightened, it attacks Truth. When Truth replies to Power, it cannot breathe the ratified air and therefore withers. Now, Justice will soar on these high mountain currents.
Wouldn’t it be a federal holiday for both Dems & Repubs though? 🤷🏾♀️
Allowing more people to vote is a 'power grab'? Only to those who know the more folks that vote, the less chance republicans have. Why doesn't Mitch just come out and tell us exactly who it is he doesn't want voting?
Says the man from a party that does everything in its power to steal elections.
Not more of that pesky 'democracy' stuff again! What is this? The United States of America?! McConnellSucks
He’ll be dead soon folks. No panic yet.
Do we need any more evidence that this traitor is all about suppressing people's right to vote? Power grab? Yeah, in the words of the immortal John Lennon, Power to the People.
Kentucky desperately needs two 2 new brand new Senators.
Voting is every taxpayers right
His goal is to keep the working poor from being able to vote - suppression, long lines, inconvenient polling locations, gerrymandering...
McConnell knows that the only way Republicans win is to cheat or suppress the vote.
Truth—- because it would be fair and there are more dems than Republicans...and that divide gets larger and larger while trump and Mitch are still there
The irony, it burns.
Says the guy who delayed reopening he government
Unreal....
Voter fraud is a lie to get more voter suppression. Duh!!
Well, he’s right
Read the lines on McConnells face
gtconway3d So he is basically saying: 'If more people can vote, Republicans will lose.' It seems to be a pretty strong indictment of your own party when the primary reason you are able to be elected is by minimizing the number of people who can vote.
McConnell needs a new job where he wears a paper hat and says “Do you want fries with that “? Please Retweet! Keep it short. Brevity is the soul of tweet! Do you consider him qualified?
... and would that face lie to you?
FYI senatemajldr 'In most countries, general elections are always held on a Saturday or Sunday, to enable as many voters as possible to participate; [...] when elections are held on a weekday, countries or regions declare election day a public holiday.' Is that the Dems
:[
Fair elections, accessible polls, Wanting as many people to exercise their right to vote a power grab? Only a Fascist would say that. You sir are anti-American. senatemajldr
Mitch McConnell just gave away the GOP's biggest strategy: Suppress the vote no matter what - republicans know they don't do as well when more people turn out to vote VoteThemOut NeverVoteGOP senatemajldr GOPChairwoman LindseyGrahamSC GOPLeader
Why are you afraid the people will not vote for your party?
How is encouraging people to vote a power grab? There is so much inherently wrong in that one statement!
It is, as all dems, want to give free, free holidays, free healthcare, free education, free pass into the US, free benefits, free housing, etc... Who will pay for all the free?!?! And people who vote can do it over several days, not just one day.
Just another old, white man that has no real concept of how the world should be. Time to retire Mitch!
What’s the matter Mitch are u getting outplayed
This is disgraceful, no matter what party you say you are from. Democracies should encourage voter turnout, not just the right amount of people for one side to win. McConnell will be remembered as one of the great villains in history.
Some McConnell is basically admitting that the only way GOP can win elections, is to suppress the vote. Not to mention, collude with Russia.
Can't say he's wrong. But what does that say about Republicans that if more people voted, fewer Republicans would win?
Your democracy mask is slipping, Mitch.
So he acknowledges that his party is anti democratic. COOL
Republicans have to go to work Democrats don’t
Perfect opportunity, SenMajLdr , trade voting holiday for national Voter ID!
Oh sure everything the Democrats do is evil. What world are you living in ‘McConnell
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Pot calling the kettle black comes to mind here too...
In his defense, McConnell is expert in power grabs (Justice Garland).
GOP: giving America no choice or voice
Stupid Republican's they are like a dog's goes after their boss😶
His about national VoterIDLaw and not allowing ballot harvesting which is cheating anyway? Then we can look into this one.
Duh
🤣😂😁
If only someone could grab the power from him and actually put things on the floor to vote on, maybe just maybe the Senate could actually be involved in the government process
Making voting harder is a power-grab. Making voting easier is improving our democratic process.
No. It is adherence to constitutional rights of all people and our Government.
Voting should end on election day. It should start 2-4 weeks earlier with both vote by mail and in person options nationwide. No need to make it a national holiday.
Heaven forbid we make it easy to choose our elected officials! They aren’t even trying to hide their need for voter suppression anymore
No. A power grab is failing to hold confirmation hearings for nearly one quarter of a presidency.
It's illegal to use a legal name | ReadTheBCCRSS 'McConnell says bill to make Election Day a federal holiday is a 'power grab' by Democrats.'
At least it's not a pussy grab, like our commander in chief is wont to do.
Excellent work in the photo department, folx.
I'm almost but not quite speechless. Why wouldn't you want it easier for people exercise their civic duty as U.S. citizens? Could it be because people who aren't your base need a holiday to get to the polls? It's a power grab for civic duty.
Making it easier to vote is a partisan issue?
Truth.
How is making it easier for people to vote a power grab?
What are you afraid of senatemajldr ?
Has he considered instituting policies that people might WANT to vote for?
If I were a turtle-shaped sack of cowardice, I’d be scared of people voting, too.
Mitch McConnell actually believes that fairness is unfair.
Because when you're Mitch McConnell truly ANYTHING that makes it easier to vote for the masses MUST be a power grab.
According to senatemajldr and GOP only a certain color of people and a certain gender should be able to vote. Rather than trying to expand their base, they try to make it so that only their base can vote.
.senatemajldr is pathetic.
According to Cocaine Mitch a Russian Oligarch beneficiary and Cocaine profit beneficiary says VOTING is a power grab. YES, the Economic Vampire said that.
Admitting he doesn’t want Americans to vote.
I'm sure McConnell thinks Democracy is a power grab.
Merrick Garland!
Democrats want to grab them by the votes (the pillar of democracy) while gop and senatemajldr are fine with wanting to grab them by the ...
Anything to remain in power by the GOP
When one party wins only through active voter suppression, that's not a democracy.
Election Day should be a holiday. There should be no more mail in ballots. Everyone should have to vote with an ID. Only military members deployed should be able to vote by mail.
Ain't it soooooooooo easy to sling shots without having to explain yourself? I mean, this makes no sense but of course he can't offer anything more than the headline since there just isn't any more than that. All politicians suck, some MORE than others like Mitch
Is he he saying he’s afraid more democrats would come out to vote that’s why he is against it Well well what do you call that ?
