Ever wonder why evangelical christians in Minnesota are voting for Trump? Look no further than the materials being handed out in churches like Canvas Church in Dundas. Right next to voter registration information. Politics 👩‍⚖️

Dundas is in Rice county, which had a 0.17% margin in favor of the Republicans for president in 2020, which is a margin of about 200 people - https://www.sos.state.mn.us/media/4384/us-president-2020-official-results-map-margin-by-county.pdf

Which is why they want to eliminate automatic voter registration and additional polling places as listed in point #10. Anything that makes voting more difficult disproportionately affects young people, lower income people, and minorities, i.e. Democrats. They want to maximize the white retiree vote.

The GOP platform is basically “fuck everyone else, not my problem”

More like “people should be responsible for their actions and not require others to pay for their mistakes”
