Ah, so you only have opinions now when Republicans do this. When a Democrat does it, "ask you in November."

Gotcha.

Health over primary election. Fine.

Just get it together, USA - before November, so there’s a way for everyone to vote absentee. Or - devise some other way to vote without risking lives.

Surely we can come up with something highly accessible and fair.

What about voting over several days or weeks? Cars line up at polling places, ten voters go in at a time, vote, return to their cars, drive away , the next ten cars pull up - repeat.

Vote by mail. Oregon's been doing it since 1981. If a bunch of craft beer drinkin', legalized recreational pot smoking anarchist's can make it work surely the rest of the country can figure it out. (So says a native Oregonian craft beer drinkin', legalized recreational pot smoking anarchist)
