MassGOP keeps suing Mass., first in Federal court, now in MA court, over our voting laws, and losing because they have stupid "clownish" arguments. Is Jim Lyons the new Rudy Giuliani? No because Rudy had his law lic. suspended for doing it and @MassGOP learned the lesson. #mapoli

Trump Continues Push To Shut Down Voting Methods 69% of Americans Use https://news.yahoo.com/trump-continues-push-shut-down-235256216.html?soc_src=social-sh&soc_trk=tw&tsrc=twtr #boston #bospoli #mapoli

"..Trump continues to push for single-day, in-person voting in elections—prohibiting mail-in ballots and early voting.."

@MassGOP is working for Trump, not us. https://twitter.com/speedofwhite/status/1544443954736893952
