Spent some time with the 19 year old Granddtr yesterday. This child doesn't have a mean bone in her body.
She was telling me about voting for the first time, and how upon feeding her ballot in, a poll worker, a woman basically watched her and saw her choice. She was not nice to my granddtr. My gay Granddtr who voted her interest.
Fuck these people. I have seen you are. I am not forgetting. Sorry, not sorry.

@CinnamonGirlE Poll workers are not supposed to do that. If you are not in a red state where it would hurt perhaps turning the worker into the election supervisor.

@hapkidogal
Of course they aren't.
I would likely have made a scene if I had been with her. This is the very MAGA World we live in now.

@CinnamonGirlE

I'm sorry your granddaughter had that experience.

As a grandfather to a 20-yr-old trans grandson, I'm right with the "Fuck these people" crowd.

@slapout
I pray for them both and their safety. And all of ours.

@slapout
Keep your grandson as safe as you can and we all just hold on until this nightmare is over, hopefully.

@CinnamonGirlE

Fortunately, it is not all dark for us. He relocated back to NY from Oklahoma, and is getting the care he needed. Even with his strong views of the state of politics, I've haven't seen him brighter in years.

@slapout
That's wonderful, I am so happy to hear this for him. Hoping he absolutely soars!

@CinnamonGirlE

I hope your granddaughter stays hopeful. We need the young to stay strong.

@slapout @CinnamonGirlE (((💙💪🏽💙)))
To both of you. Thank you for your love for your children coupled with that fierce protection gene that never leaves. Being in a safe place to bloom makes my heart lighter (grandson in NY)

@CinnamonGirlE That stinks! Please let her know that many Americans are anxious about her rights and the rights of all minority/marginalized people. I care and I will be on alert to stand up for them. 💔
