@norkinm And that Part of being privileged is a part of the much larger more awesome (miraculous) privilege of having a home address where the water service can actually be delivered. C'mon norkinm, you are intelligent enough to understand that a truly large number of otherwise upstanding citizens can easily be denied the huge privilege of voting that so many people of privilege take so much for granted that they forget to express their gratitude to the less privileged human beings who here.

@norkinm Privileged white people have a hard time understanding that they really are privileged. Part of the privilege they endure is the ability to have a water bill to pay, ability to pay it if they do have one, ability to get a receipt for paying it if they did so, ability to physically carry it into some location (whether near or -more likely- quite distant) during restricted hours to use it to obtain an acceptable photo-ID, ability to physically get that to some distant place...etc. 2 vote.

my ancestors came here and formed. Indians did not do it, did they? the greatest nation ever known to man. a Nation that helped move the world forward in human rights. when this new nation called American was formed it had laws that said who and who could not come here! and right now Latin America is dumping an underclass on this nation that is largely undereducated, and those Latin American countries are not doing their fair share of social services to their citizens and we are broke!

@tommyfuller103z While I agree, illegal immigrants are a large problem, your defense is awful. "i did not ask them to come to my country", think about that statement a second, and then think of America's past. No one asked your ancestors to come here, why are they here, we didn't invite them! Oh, that's right, they came here looking for opportunities, for a better life, free to be who they want, and be an American. Like I said, I still agree illegals are a problem.

[tommyfuller103z]

lady please !this is not the 1960"s trying to keep blacks from voting the problem is Latinos who are here illegally and who want a handout from the government. sorry they are not my problem and they need to be deported! period most of them are not legal residents and i did not ask them to come to my country!

@atheistssuckdogdick Hi. You're a fucking douche bag. You're demented and sick. And I pity you. I would try to make intelligent conversation with you, but considering what you said, I don't think that's possible. You're obviously close minded, ignorant, and full of hate. And there's no point in arguing with that because logic and common sense has no effect on idiots because they are too dumb to understand it. You might just be trolling. But either way, I think you're a waste of space.

@GlassAgate That's correct. I apologize. Thinking ahead of my typing. 0.0000000000001%

@ucroar888 In ohi the poll workers are not required to help a vother if the vother is in the wrong polling place. This means the poll worker can if he wishes not tell the vother where he is supposed to vote.I vote in a libary that is shared by two cities. If I go to the wrong tabel the poll worker can choose not to direct me to the right table in the same room.He can just tell me you're not registered here Oh this is Ohio.
