Will people just accept it like usual?

Tens of thousands of eligible voters in at least six swing states have been removed from the rolls or have been blocked from registering in ways that appear to violate federal law, according to a review of state records and Social Security data by The New York Times.

1. Yes, poeple will just accept it as usual.
So try to make sure it doesn't happen.

2. They wait until the end to do the purges.
That makes it harder to do anything about it.

3. I think more and more people are waking up to this
And honestly, I don't know that it would work so well, or so I'd like to hope.

A ton more people are aware of these issues since 2004; I know I've spread the word so much some folks are tired of hearing it.

4. Revolt! Riots! Taking up of arms!
Tens of millions will take to the streets, pillaging, burning, destroying the opposition!

(okay, one can hope!)

5. One can hope but this isn't 1776. People today are intellectually lazy
and apathetic.
