I have great respect for Markos. This community has been a literal life saver for me in the past and I’m more grateful than I can ever express for your help.
I have long appreciated this community’s advocacy for expanding voting days and hours to assist the working poor, like me, who have to work 2 and 3 jobs to make ends meet.
Today, I humbly request we walk that talk here and apply that advocacy to our own straw poll.
I’m lucky there is one job where I can read and post here pretty easily and often. However, when I’m driving part-time for Uber and Lyft, I obviously can’t post online. Nor can I vote when I’m taking seniors to medical appointments or at hospital for long hours. Since my schedule is far more flexible than most who work multiple jobs, I often get to vote in the straw poll.
Others are not so lucky.
Please, consider there are plenty of active, long-time Kossacks who can’t make it here between “between 9 AM PT/12 PM ET and 5 PM PT/8 PM ET” because they don’t get home from their 2nd job or 3rd job until much later in the night.
I humbly request the straw poll hours be expanded to either a) a 24 hour window or b) at least 10PM PT.
