@cjciaramella Interesting history (I'm a big Spanish art nerd): while it was posthumously titled "saturno devorando a su hijo" that wasn't Goya's title, and art historians think that's probably a female, not male, snack. — PolitiTweet.org

@BradOnMessage Low turnout benefits wealthier, higher educated folks and disenfranchises poorer and often nonwhite folks. Doesn't always benefit R's but it often does. — PolitiTweet.org

@BradOnMessage Big difference between having a base problem because of a specific candidate/environment (you lost MT & WV because of great Dem candidates AND subpar, uninspiring GOP nominees in a wave year). Having very low-profile elections on isolated days isn't the same thing. — PolitiTweet.org

@LoganDobson @BradOnMessage @RalstonReports I can see a debate over how long folks should have to vote early. And I think it's a good idea for folks to hold their ballots if they're not 100% sure who they'll vote for. But giving people just one day to vote inherently disenfranchises people! Your ballot, your choice. — PolitiTweet.org

@BradOnMessage early voting is crucial for access too! sympathetic to your "processing the full campaign" point but having a one-day election (esp. if it's not a holiday!) disenfranchises people and disproportionately hurts poorer/younger/nonwhite voters. undecideds hold their ballots anyway. — PolitiTweet.org

Six states cut 50%+ of their voting places from 2016-2020. California, Nevada and New Jersey also sent all registered voters a mail ballot. Kentucky, Maryland and North Dakota did NOT. CA alone is down 10K+ polling places, half the nat'l cuts. https://t.co/NbE6Bmow10 — PolitiTweet.org

It's a lot more complicated than that! the biggest cuts come in... deep blue California, which is pivoting hard to vote by mail and voting centers. But it's definitely a part of this. And even in states w/ easy VBM, this hurts voters not trusting mail who wanna vote in person. — PolitiTweet.org

@debvarco @VICENews @GOP @TheDemocrats it's not that cut and dry! California has by far the deepest cuts numerically but it's a VBM pivot. Other states with very deep cuts that didn't send everyone ballots include Kentucky (red state with a dem gov who agreed to the policy) and Maryland (blue state with a GOP gov) — PolitiTweet.org
Cameron Joseph @cam_joseph
These cuts will disproportionately impact poor, nonwhite and young people. "Closing this many polling places at such a vast scale really does affect voters. Fewer polling places can lead to longer lines, longer wait times, and hurt people," said @LChapmanEsq of @civilrightsorg — PolitiTweet.org
Cameron Joseph @cam_joseph
All these cuts could lead to longer lines for voters — especially in states that didn't do much to expand mail voting. Not all voters trust mail voting, some for good reason. And voters without access to a car are much less likely to vote if their polling place is far away. — PolitiTweet.org

This was a biiig lift - it took bugging 50 secretaries of state/election boards (and DC!) for their info and comparing it to 2016 and 2012 @No_Little_Plans deserves kudos for doing most of that. — PolitiTweet.org
Cameron Joseph @cam_joseph
The deepest cuts were driven by COVID and shifts to vote by mail and voting centers. But many states are just cutting while doing little to nothing to expand VBM. 40 of the 45 states that weren't already vote by mail saw cuts, and 35 are not sending mail ballots to everyone. — PolitiTweet.org
