re: #504 Anymouse

Well, relitigating the election certainly isn’t going to help. I was disenfranchised in 2008 (just got over being homeless and had not yet established residency in Oklahoma) so I could not vote. Mrs. Clinton was not the candidate in 2012. As the primaries this time wound up, I was a supporter of her candidacy (with time and money).

I agree focusing on the non-voters is useful. A few ten thousand of those in the right places and we’d be talking about Hillary Clinton’s first thirty days as President now, instead of my state governor’s billionaire relative becoming Deputy Commerce Secretary.

You bring up a good point about disenfranchisement, something I’m glad to hear Democrats address more lately. I hope to see more work done to return the vote to ex-felons and allowing homeless people to register an address (for purposes beyond voting) and expand the voter pool as well. Remember that Republicans lose when democracy prevails.
