So the Democratic party candidates performed well in

the midterms much to the party of traitors dismay. My greatest disappointment as always is the dismal voter turnout. Is it really that difficult to take a few minutes to vote. There is absolutely no excuse for not voting. Early voting, mail in ballots, drop boxes and same day voting what more can we do as a country to get the uninterested to be interested.

In some places, it doesn't take "a few minutes" to vote.

It takes hours. Long hours.

And that is by design, to discourage voting.
