My German wife got a letter in the mail notifying her of the time and place of the federal election. The letter is ID. No citizen has to register to vote. It is also considered a responsibility and privilege. Voting is held on a non-work day and polling places are walking distance in most places.

@steveschmidtses.bsky.social I listened to your conversation with Ro Khanna. I’m a democratic and he scared me, His lack of imagination about what Trump & his cult are likely to do is very concerning. Apparently he has not paid attention to recent history of authoritarian consolidation of power.
