Because the people making those rules don't want those people to vote. They figure, if it's that much of a hassle, they won't turn out. Meanwhile, in Republican-strong areas, they have multiple voting locations and very short lines.

Decades ago, the parties were much different than today. There were pro-choice Republicans and pro-life Democrats. Only one time in recent (2000+) memory did the Dems ever have the 60 votes necessary for codifying Roe. They used that two-ish week window to pass the ACA.

And that's not even touching on the differing public approval of abortion.

He famously doesn't drink alcohol, but I'm sure he'd appreciate something else. :)

English? Rules?

We don't do that here.

As a Minnesotan, I'm saddened for our potential loss. But as an American, I'm happy that the rest of the country will get to benefit from him.

I'd be sad to lose him here, but happy that the rest of the country gets to have him as well.

It'll go to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, since that's where Florida is.
