When I registered to vote there was absentee ballots and voting day. anyone who wanted to vote voted. Early voting was started to accomidate minorities. Isn't this called racism? Should just let them vote all year long, but that still wouldn't be enough.

I am so tired of all these people claiming that cutting early voting i racist and that they need to extended early voting tomore days. I went Friday morning, walked in, voted and walked out in about 5 minutes. People have had plenty of time. If you didnt vote early, then you'll have to vote Nov 6.
