Didn't see a thread on this ballot measure, but it's important.

This is now the 2nd time voters rejected Republican efforts to limit voting.

MT voters rejected the measure by a huge 57-43 margin in a heavily GOP climate & state.

Previously, Maine-voters rejected ending same-day registration after Republicans wanted to restrict voting.

Thoughts ?

People are unwilling to have their voting rights curtailed for partisan reasons.

What makes you think the GOP gives a crap?  They'll go a different route.

This is what you get when you try to enact a rightist policy in a state that is only purple-red (as opposed to pure red) when it's not a presidential race.

What different route? They don't have the governorship.
