HEY! If you are one of the nationally-recognized liberals attacking the state of Kentucky for "Closing polling places! Vote suppression", you're spreading a false narrative. Our Democratic Gov Andy Beshear has EXPANDED voting opportunity to protect us in the coronavirus pandrmic
Every single KY registered voter was sent instructions to obtain an absentee ballot, so they could vote by mail and NOT STAND IN LINE AT A POLLING PLACE and risk coronavirus to vote. 27% have already voted by mail.
Every single county has had open, walk-in voting, all day, for the past two weeks. You didn't have to go to your precinct, you could vote anywhere open in your county. BECAUSE THERE'S PANDEMIC AND WE DON'T WANT YOU STANDING IN LINE TO VOTE.
Yes, Jefferson County (Louisville) is using Expo Center as a polling place. Because it's huge, there is plenty of room to keep the final Tuesday voters indoors, near bathrooms, safely apart so they don't catch coronavirus. There are free buses running every half hour to get there
Poll workers across the state are nearly all older people very threatened by coronavirus exposure . The KY National Guard has been trained as poll workers, and will be deployed across the state so the usual poll workers can safely sit this primary out at home.
So, really, you non-Kentuckians screaming about polling place closures - YOU NEED TO SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN.

Our Democratic Gov Andy Beshear has one of the best performances in the country protecting us from Covid, he has EXPANDED safe voting opportunities for our Tuesday primary
We are expecting a GREAT voting turnout for a primary election, especially among black voters in Louisville, especially considering we are in the middle of a dangerous pandemic.

Our Democratic Gov Andy Beshear has EXPANDED our voting opportunities.
We don't want our people standing in line on Tuesday catching coronavirus!

But if they didn't vote by mail, or vote at the polls that have bee open all day for past two weeks, we have them safely covered Tuesday.

Y'all need to STFU and stop attacking our Democratic Governor.
