    You realize all these have been rebutted ad nauseam!

    reducing the number of ballot boxes
    - Reduced only to per-pandemic levels and even codified their use into state law, ensuring they are now part of the law to which they were not prior.
    shrinking the window for early voting - Actually, the new law has no changes the existing rules on the books. This is a lie that continues to be batted around, yet is blatantly false. Even the the left wing WaPo gave this 4 Pinacchios.
    make it illegal for outside groups to give water or food to voters stuck in long lines - I laugh at people who chose this hill to die on. There is nothing in the law that says you can't bring food or water and nothing in the law that says you can't run over to a hot dog wagon and grab a bite. What is embarrassing is that you think voters are not smart enough to prepare for a hot day.

    Fair enough.... why do you disagree with this one?

    A state has said that anybody who has gone the "extra" mile to get a booster shot doesn't have to quarantine, as they are considered a better risk to hit the beaches immediately...

    It's a reward for the diligent, not a punishment for the lazy/ignorant. They can still come to Hawaii, but have to go through the quarantine process... No change there...

    This is not much different than the states who were giving rewards to get original vaccinations, including red states (Ohio, Arkansas)

    What a completely ridiculous take. So we can't discuss a states laws (and how stupid they may be) because, hey, states rights? Wtf is that? Just a thought, if you don't have anything to offer - don't!

    You can discuss what you want... I'd just like a shred of consistency, for a change of pace..

    LOL the only inconsistency is in your head, NO ONE argued Hawaii doesn't have the autonomy to make their own laws.

    I was referring to undocumented immigrants being not only welcomed, but incentivized with zero vaccine requirements.

    Yes, your pants do seem to be huddled around your ankles today. Fully vaccinated and boosted still allows COVID to infect and spread from the host. Do you deny this?

    You don't have the luxury of disagreeing with one part. Its a package deal.

    What is TRULY embarrassing is you think they should have to prepare to spend any significant time in line at all...

    But you aren't CHEERING it... I want a full throated defense of a state offering a simple incentive to do the right thing...

    We've done it for 245 years and do it in everyday life. If you're that out of shape to stand for a bit of time, maybe it's time to look into a treadmill.

    I don't... I live in an area that doesn't allow the bullshit they do in Georgia and elsewhere, with nearby, high capacity, fast voting polling places... Never waited in a voting line for more than 10 minutes in my life...

    Not everybody has that luxury, but we should do better...... unless, of course, if gets more D voters though the line faster...

    Can't have that cheese in MAGA world...

    BTW, New York has less early voting than that of Georgia and yes, most states have volumes of lines depending on the hours people chose to vote so don't preach BS as standing in line to vote is a common as apple pie!

    Wow!! You found a picture of people standing in line in NYC... Banner day!

    BTW, standing in line to EARLY vote is a choice.... standing in line to vote on election day is not....

    Buzz off with your ridiculous stuff.... or continue on, but know you are doing it alone...

    Quick, quick. Backtrack and pretend you said something else! Better get the mods to delete your embarrassing nonsense.

    LOL
