Beto O’Rourke 2020 campaign megathread

[libertpaulian]

He's just bought and paid for by big oil interests, isn't he?

Don't forget billionaire suburban housewives.

The two most important states in 2020 will be Florida & Wisconsin. Amendment 4 (Voting Rights Restoration) having been passed and now implemented in Florida.

Maybe I spoke too soon. YIKES!

"In a 71-45 vote Wednesday evening, legislators voted to require people with felony records to pay restitution, as well as all court fines and fees — including fees that have been converted to a civil judgment — before regaining their voting rights. " aka a modern POLL TAX

My signature continues to be accurate.

Requiring felons to pay their pre-existing fees before voting = poll tax? LOL

Yeah, it's ridiculous to object to that requirement for felons. It's not as if it was being proposed for actual people - what's the outrage here for?

If they're being required to pay restitution, then that's an extra thing (aside from the fines) that they're having to pay, after already having served their sentence, in effect having to buy back their voting rights. So yes, it's a poll tax.

Peaceful Beto supporters please refudiate.

God, what have politics come to.

Imagine traveling back in time 20 years and telling someone that your job is to write "Tweets" for your congressman's dog.

Yeah, I can’t defend that other than by saying that he probably won’t be the last.

[Comrade Funk]

I read this on another forum, but it's probably best for Beto that Buttigieg is having his upswing in polls now as opposed to later in the year.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Beto may win Iowa, yet, it's a flip of a coin

The Florida Legislature approves a bill requiring former felons to pay fines and fees before voting. The bill now heads to Gov. Ron DeSantis’s desk.

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/5/3/18528564/amendment-4-florida-felon-voting-rights-fees

Florida voters overwhelmingly approved restoring voting rights to felons who have served their time.  Rick Scott, Ron DeSantis and Republicans are ignoring the voters and continuing to suppress votes, ignoring the mandate of the people. This is outrageous and is a modern-day POLL TAX. Republicans only have a chance in 2020 by CHEATING!

It's pretty typical Republican Party politics. Especially for the Florida Republican Party.

[John Dule]

DeSantis has some of the highest approval ratings in the country and has reached out to Democrats in his cabinet-level appointments.

Nobody cares about a governor that took office like 4 months ago. WAY TOO EARLY BRO! You do realize this is a DEMOCRAT 2020 thread right???

Lol @ party of facts. You believe scientists when they say global warming is real (which it is) then don't believe them when they say gender dysphoria is a mental illness (which it is).

And don't lecture us on fake news until you stop watching biased bogus such as MSNBC and CNN.

umm, who tf is denying gender dysphoria? And as for CNN and MSNBC, while they are bad, generally reports facts and does not barrage you with propaganda.

The left, and they aren't denying gender dysphoria. They are denying that gender dysphoria, and its indirect affect, transgenderism, is a mental illness, which most scientists say it is.
