Especially the votes of the young first time voter, the elderly long time voter, the working poor with limited transportation. What would you do if you saw a long line at the polling place? Now wounder voters are just giving up on government.
yours is so funny for a first post!! may i suggest that you go back and read the article so that you can see your inflammatory assertions debunked with the info re longer hours of operation, weekend voting hours, early voting and the old standby of absentee voting!

this is all an attempt to save sumter county money. so if this cost-cutting measure is not to your liking, i hope we don't have to read your complaints re taxes that are too high.

welcome to the political forum, big guy.
