NBA announces plan to convert arenas into polling places as part of agreement to resume play
By Marina Pitofsky - 08/28/20 02:03 PM EDT

The NBA and the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) announced a plan on Friday to return to the league’s playoffs, as well as a commitment to convert some arena facilities into in-person voting locations during the 2020 general election.

NBPA Executive Director Michele Roberts and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in joint statement that the league will return to playoff games on Saturday “with the understanding that” players and the league will focus on a slate of civil and voting rights programs. 

The leaders said that in every city where the league’s franchise controls arena property “team governors will continue to work with local elections officials to convert the facility into a voting location for the 2020 general election to allow for a safe in-person voting option for communities vulnerable to COVID.”

What a stupid idea.  Which explains why No Bimbos Allowed jumped for it.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

How many of those arenas are anywhere near residential areas? I wonder if this is part of plan for the democrats to buss in a particular type of voter that would be hugely beneficial to them.

Stuffing a couple thousand people into indoor venues, while simultaneously closing Churches because COVID-19, comes across as a bit non compos mentis.

ETA:  In Phoenix, the Basketball venue is in the middle of a large tract of Industrial zoning.  As with games, people have to come in from all over the Valley.

My plan is to always stay at least 25 miles distant from the game locations of both the Lost Angeles Lakers and the Lost Angeles Clippers.  (Nice buildings, shitty neighborhoods)
