I don't want refreshments when I go to vote. I want to be able to vote now. We're all entitled to our own opinions, not our own facts. The data shows that black and brown voters have to stand in line a lot longer than their white counterparts.

If you're a working class person and you gotta take off from work to vote, that is a kind of poll tax, in my view. (13:38–13:46)
