Tom Toles for November 06, 2018

And you get your “Free to _itch” membership card, guaranteed by the 1st (unless the GOP takes our democracy down).

You can tell they’re not guns because Republicans want to restrict access to their use.

Unless they’re kept out of the box.

They are ONLY automatic in Texas…mark “D” and it automatically gets registered as “R”.

Just be sure you use them. VOTE

You can only vote once each election.

But there is no limit to the number of letters you can write to your elected official once you elect them. Write them often.

Although attaching large denomination bills to the letters does have a tendency to get them read more!

Ballots, not bullets.

Look at how powerful computers are. They can steal an election and never be exposed.

Paper ballots, counted by hand, in public.

Tennessee still uses paper paper ballots with are feed into a machine that tabulates the votes.

Another great one, Tom.

They are less powerful as the organization that COUNTS them Just ask Brian Kemp. The politician that gets to select who votes has more power than the voters themselves, just ask Elbridge Gerry the father of Gerrymandering.

Tomorrow expect the drumbeat of war with only Glorious Leader to keep us safe. WWII did not end fascism.

I guess you could call the “Straight ticket” box semi-automatic. Only semi because it will change your votes due to “operator error”.

whatta buncha believers we are, eh?

Where can I buy a sword around here?

When you take up a pencil and sharpen it up

When you’re kicking the fence and still nothing will budge

When the words are immobile until you sit down

Never feel they’re worth keeping, they’re not easily found

Then you know in some strange, unexplainable way

You must really have something

Jumping, thumping, fighting, hiding away

Important to say

.

Pete Townshend – Guitar And Pen

Vote early, vote often this election day

Vote early! Vote often! The American Way

Vote early! Vote often! And the Force even may

Be with you (though doubtful) this election day

IN FACT:

Considering the tone of almost all of the debate

I’d like to draw and quarter every single candidate!

Thank you, Mr. Toles. I got up early, had voted by 7:15, was sipping tea while looking through the political cartoons. Your work today, though simple, actually choked me up. Truth and love of what is correct often do that to me.

Well done, Mr Toles – thank you.
