Lol they are complaining about how many special votes we get in elections, but isn't it pretty widely known that special votes tend to lean left?

Exactly that.

This is just disenfranchisement.

Why? Why are afraid of people voting?

Never mind, don't answer that. They are getting their marching orders from the USA right wing oligarchs.
