It doesn’t need to be a good answer. It just needs to be an answer.

Because it’s an electric SUV and not a pony car. It’s an entirely different vehicle, apart from the name slapped on it.

Group policy.

Because any time anything changes in Windows, people bitch about it.

The US federal government does not operate elections. States do, and they all do it a little differently. However, so far as I am aware, each state only requires you to register once, and applies all the different districts from your address. Even so, US House districts also depend on your address within a state; those are not statewide offices.

There are many different voting districts, each one depending on where you live, and they overlap and don’t in all sorts of ways. It’s not just “what state do you live in”.

Mmm capitalism is definitely bad.

If the process in this Tennessee county is as described in the article, it’s not unfair. Playing fuck around with voter registrations that have no issues is something else entirely.

I said I was old; I didn’t say I was sensitive. I just have my finger on the pulse of the aged.

And don’t get me wrong, there’s definitely a whole lot of active and open malice towards trans people. It’s a good idea to consider these kind things with suspicion first, because your safety may be in question. Even with this comparatively benign incident, there’s a safety aspect: if a trans person answers truthfully, well, that’s on record somewhere now, isn’t it? Who has or will gain access to that information, and what might they do with it?

Be careful. Make the decisions that keep you the safest. Don’t burn up all your mental effort on plain outrage. You will need it for action.

You know, this is not unfair.

Most of those purged were cut from the rolls in March, before anyone knew a special election was coming.

They were cut from the rolls after the Davidson County Election Commission sent letters to voters more than two years ago, that were returned as undeliverable.

People whose letters were returned were purged after they did not vote in two consecutive November elections.

“We don’t purge anyone 90 days before an election,” Roberts said.

He said people purged may have moved or died.

Roberts said if someone was purged, and they come to vote in the primary election they can re-register to vote for the general election, which is on December 2.

This tracks.

You’re not wrong. That’s the hamfisted part. Among the older generations, asking “if you fuck, can a creampie result in a baby?” is more offensive than “when you were born, what parts did you have?” because the latter keeps the jizz further away.

The medical reasons are not entirely amorphous. There are biological differences to take into account, the most obvious being whether a person is capable of becoming pregnant. There are certain warnings and considerations that the pharmacy may be required to inform someone of if they are physically capable of becoming pregnant. Might be corporate policy, might be because of state laws (especially if you’re in a slave state). Demographic information can be used to ensure that different groups of people are treated fairly.

Companies take actions that they think will maximize profit. Yes, they will trample all over anyone in that process, but it will be for profit, and not for anything else - malice included - in the absence of maximizing profit. Point being: they may be hamfisted about it, but that’s about it.

I must admit that I didn’t fully “get it” until after I had hit send on my last reply.

You are why I love the internet.

Just like the 14th.
