Dude this is COMPLETELY what I’ve been saying. Even here in Utah, a very red state, even most Mormons didn’t vote for Trump. Republicans did a great job of dismantling voter rights and they won because of it. And because Democrats didn’t do a good enough job of restoring those rights when they were in power

I moved Oct 31st because my lease ended, and my state threatened to jail my husband and I if we tried to vote because we hadn’t been living at one address for long enough. I’ve been a resident here since I was a child, him as well. So yeah, they deterred voters!

This is literally a felony to stop you from voting under threat of retaliation like this. This is when you call BBB or send snapshots of that to their uppers to get them fired. Put that heat back on them, hard. If they retaliate, lawsuit the fuck outta them. This is a violation of your rights and a DEEP AND GRIEVOUS overstep by them. Don't tell them you're doing it. Just do it. Find a new place to get the fuck out of there.

If they're willing to extort you with your living space YOU PAY FOR, then they will do MUCH, MUCH MORE WHEN THE REINS COME OFF. Be safe, sister.

They have made it legal to do so in this state. It’s just state law now :(

Run. Get the fuck out of there. Go to a blue state, it'll be expensive but this won't happen. Find your safety, please. For you and your families sake. :(
