The saying here in MO is "Yes on 6, the rest are tricks."

Prop A (the redistricting map) Vote NO to keep the old map. They took this to the USSC twice to push their new redistricted map, after voters successfully filed a petition to stop them. They failed to convince the SS. Vote NO

Amend 3 (overturns abortion rights that voters already voted to reinstate in the last election) Vote NO to keep abortion legal. They've been running ads on TV that frame this amendment as preventing trans surgeries on minors, which is a total lie. Trans surgeries on minors are already illegal in MO, and has nothing to do with this amendment which is to overturn the will of the people who voted a year ago to legalize abortion. Vote NO

Amend 6 (Voting) Vote YES to make sure your votes are honored and cannot be overturned by the legislature. Vote YES

Amend 7 (establishes a prosperity fund that the legislature can use however they want) Vote NO

Amend 8 (removal of sheriffs without vote or consent of the people) Vote NO

All of these ballot initiatives basically have to do with diminishing or removing the voice or will of the people/voters. Hopefully, people are paying attention, and will VOTE BLUE!

This sounded like Ohio

Not about a ballot issue, but Sherrod Brown's run to regain his Senate position:

They've been running ads on TV that frame this amendment as preventing trans surgeries on minors, which is a total lie. Trans surgeries on minors are already illegal in MO

It's also illegal in Ohio, but they're accusing Brown of this (also falsely) because he once voted for Trans rights. As with last time when he lost, it's all about Transgenders and immigration. Never mind jobs, foreign wars, affordability, and all the REAL issues Ohio faces.

Let's hope the morons stay home this year...smh

SAY ‘NO’ TO WAR!
RESIST!

But the telling thing is....

While they are telling all these lies and scapegoating minorities (like Hitler did), they are also trying to diminish voters' rights and voices going forward, steadily trying to advance their fascist agenda.

Of course they won't say that, but that is so obviously what they are doing. And the sad part is, more than a few people seem to be okay with that, perhaps believing that they need to compete with minorities to win favoritism from the upcoming fascist regimes?

Fascism is real

Many don't understand it, or Trump's parallels with Hitler and Mussolini. Ironic, considering their hatred and fear of 'socialist government.'

SAY ‘NO’ TO WAR!
RESIST!

Exactly!

In a world where you can be anything, choose to be kind.

That is so annoying when they write up to trick people.

That should be illegal. It is already immoral and unethical. Why not go for the trifector?

Yep… you really have to be on your toes.

They do it purposefully, of course, to throw you off. They are trying very hard to deceive and thwart the power of the people going forward.

This should be illegal! It is already immoral and unethical...

So why not make it a trifector?

I thought I'd posted this same response a couple of hours ago, but it wasn’t
