Mississippi Election Commissioner Complains That "Blacks" Are Register

[wvit1001]

An election commissioner in Mississippi claims her intent wasn’t to be racist despite posting on Facebook that she was concerned because “the Blacks” are having lots of voter registration events.

According to a report from the Clarion Ledger, Jones County election commissioner Gail Harrison Welch is now pushing back at people who have questioned the integrity of the election commission where she serves after she made the comments on social media last week.





“I don’t mean anything by it,” she told the Clarion-Ledger. “I have worked hard to make sure everybody is registered to vote — Black or white, everybody — that’s just how I am.”

Why the concern at Black people registering to vote then? And the implication that there is a distinction between “blacks” and “people in Mississippi?”

Oh no! Blacks want to vote! We certainly can't have that! Well, if a bunch of them register, we'll just have to close down most of the voting stations in their precincts! That'll show 'em!

*for those too stupid to realize it, that was sarcasm. It's the truth of what happens, but is still sarcasm.

That wasn’t  so smart as more blacks are supporting Trump

joining the #walkaway movement for their own self interests

LOL! It doesn't matter for whom they vote. Voting should be painless.

Painless is not the only way for voter integrity

So?

Don’t you agree with her and want to say ALL Missippians voting zippy ?

She is sounding the alarm that the Blacks are being taken to multiple Voter Registrations across the State as a setup for casting
   multiple votes this Fall.
