Judge Says Opening Second Dodge City Poll Site Would Create âConfusionâ ⌠AND might negatively affect the chances of Kris Kobac
Therefore we cannot do it.
Well, itâs true. Giving people more opportunities to vote does create confusion. Having more people vote creates confusion. Democracy creates confusion. Thatâs just how it is.
Coxâs attorney, Bradley Schlozmanâwhere have I heard that name before? Oh yesâBushâs henchman during the mass firing of US attorneys.
âIs your name Bruce?â
âNo. Itâs Michaelâ
âEvery one of us in this department is named Bruce. You coming in here as Not Bruce, well, thatâs just going to cause confusionâ

Thank you Ms Cox for fuqing the system . ( How thick was the envelope that the Repubs passed to you ? )
what possible confusion could there be? Absurd.
They are, of course, creating the perfectly staged film clip of âDemocrats busing in illegals to voteâ that will run on an endless loop from now until eternity. The Fox âNewsâ film crews will wet themselves as the buses filled with Hispanic voters from Dodge City pull up to the polling place in the middle of nowhereâŚ
Apparently having the only polling place be outside of the city wasnât confusing for everyone.
I know the name of the town is Dodge City but come on!
I hope someone with money would hire a fleet of buses and bus every single voter from Dodge City to the new polling place two miles outside the city limits. Talk about obvious voter suppression!!!
So there has to be some sort of Republican directory of willing and able Republican lawyers, with a track record of âby any means necessaryâ that a lowly county election official and consult, right?
Lemme guess, that city bus to the polling station will run twice a day.
Let me fathom a wild guess: The judge is a white male Republican. The US is a fake DemocracyâŚvoting rights take a back seat to GUNS. What a joke.
That LOL should really be good for a criminal referral.
On Maddowâs Show the âbusâ was a van - and passengers had to schedule an appointment to get a ride to the voting site.
All over the map there seems to be an underlying precedent being set that people can be legally excluded from the polls for all sorts of petty bureaucratic reasons (changed address from id, or no address, middle initial instead spelled out name, âsignatures donât matchâ, removing early voting hours and stations, removing or limiting election day polling stations and machines, requiring difficult to acquire or expensive documents, common name shared with convicted felon somewhere, still on the rolls with former residence in another state, postcard challenges/caging, and so on and so on).
Itâs nothing more than a newer, âmore subtleâ iteration of Jim Crow laws - pretending that legally certain people have the right to vote, but that they just arenât willing to go to the trouble to actually do it. Sympathetic judges just grab that fig leaf to pretend theyâre not naked.
The âConfusionâ of not electing Kris Kobach as governor of Kansas.
Well there you go. I hope the Democratic party has a fleet of free Ubers and plain olâ rides for those non-connected folk lined up at the usual polling location and are blanketing the city with offers of free transport. Even so, the fear of getting stuck in line out there is going suppress a lot of potential voters, and that, of course, is the point.
And unfortunately, with the moron (and McConnellâs) unprecedented ramming through of judges, we can expect more of this in the future. Whoeverâs running in 2020 better pledge to add two additional SC judges.
