I haven't voted in a while but seeing people get disenfranchised makes me want to

“Suspended”? Odd way to spell disenfranchised

I posted on another thread that I got purged. Please check your status if you're from Texas.

Can you register as a republican so they are less likely to remove you from the rolls even if you actually voted Democrat in the election?

i think they still would if you live a democratic majority county. gop uses another suppresion method, restricting voting to the district/county you are in.

I really, really wish I had more faith in the integrity of our electoral system and its ability to resist politically-motivated interference

Its a good thing they don't put as much priority or effort in this constitutional right as the 2a.

But then again, its not profitable to have voters be able to vote.
