That's what is happening in Indiana
http://www.indystar.com/story/news/2017/08/10/silencing-vote-data-shows-unequal-barrier-indiana-polls/435450001/ State and local Republicans have expanded early voting in GOP-dominated areas and restricted it in Democratic areas, an IndyStar investigation has found, prompting a significant change in Central Indiana voting patterns. Here's what that looks like in numbers: https://twitter.com/DrHedrick/status/895680896765919233 --- kin to all that throbs ... Copied to Clipboard!

why dont the democrats just expand it for themselves But Indianapolis Mayor Joseph Hogsett, a Democrat, told IndyStar he is in favor of adding additional early voting stations to the county's 2018 budget. And four attempts to expand early voting in Marion County have been approved by Democrats, but blocked by the county's lone GOP representative on the elections board. --- kin to all that throbs ...

then why dont they just block the repblucans They lack the power to do so; other counties don't require unanimous approval from elections boards. In 2013, the state legislature began implementing reforms with specific controls over Marion, Lake and Allen counties' early voting systems. The law was specifically created to allow Republicans to limit absentee voting in populous, largely Democratic counties. --- kin to all that throbs ... Copied to Clipboard!

The law was specifically created to allow Republicans to block the creation of early voting sites in populous, largely Democratic counties. is there a method to recall ms. hoff from the election board? is each board required to have both democrats and republicans on them? --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

I mean... I don't really see what the issue is here? Sounds like local republicans put 2 more early voting stations in their counties, and democrats failed, just like they failed the rest of the Hillary campaign.

is each board required to have both democrats and republicans on them? I believe so. Since legislation passed in 2001, every county requires a unanimous vote of the three-member board to expand early voting. County elections boards are currently made up of a Democrat, a Republican and the county clerk. That legislation set the stage for the current disparity. --- kin to all that throbs ...

ok so the issue is the legislation that requires the vote be unanimous, yeah? that's something dems could undo if they ever win the IN legislature again

Darkman124 posted...ok so the issue is the legislation that requires the vote be unanimous, yeah? right so if dems seize the state they could reverse that, and if they felt like being dicks, flip it around and apply it only to GOP areas and close all their early voting centers these kind of games are pretty fundamentally anti-democratic --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...
