Voter suppression!
“the largest legislative effort to scale back voting rights in a century.”
People who are too irresponsible to get proper identification, and people who are ineligible for it, vote overwhelmingly democrat.
“A survey by the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law found that 11 percent of citizens, 21 million people, do not have a current photo ID. That fraction increases to 15 percent of low-income voting-age citizens, 18 percent of young eligible voters and 25 percent of black eligible voters.” (NY Times – Republican Threat to Voting)How in the hell do these people go about their daily lives?
You can’t even rent a movie at blockbuster without a valid form of ID. You certainly can’t get a legitimate job without it. When I got my first civilian job after honorable service in the US military, I had to show up with a valid US passport to prove I was eligible to work in the United States.
That's Racist!
Can you believe it? GOP state governments are so racist that they are passing laws requiring voters to actually present ID at the polls in order to vote! What is this country coming to? And to get this ID, they are required to present a birth certificate or naturalization paperwork proving they are an American citizen! Imagine that!
“The Wisconsin bill refuses to recognize college photo ID cards, even if they are issued by a state university”Oh no! Diplomas are also issued by state universities, and we know how little the vast majority of those are worth.
The Democrat propagandists at the New York Times go on to breathlessly inform us…
“The Texas bill, so vital that Gov. Rick Perry declared it emergency legislation, would also reject student IDs, but would allow anyone with a handgun license to vote.”Anyone with a brain can see the logic behind this. Universities do not require source documentation such as a birth certificate or passport to issue their cheap little ID. A Texas “handgun license” owner has had to prove residency and citizenship. BTW, any non-felon can possess a weapon in Texas. The license is for concealed carry, lest a reader think Texas has turned yellow belly sapsucker liberal while we weren’t looking.
My Plan to Prevent Voter Fraud
* Purge the voter rolls every two years
* To vote in a state you must possess a state drivers license or state ID card. You can only get one of those if you present proof of citizenship (passport or birth certificate) and proof of state residency.
* No sidewalk registration by acorn thugs or voter advocacy groups. If you want to register to vote you must present yourself to the county office every two years with your state-issued ID or drivers license in hand.
* No voting by mail except for military and US government employees stationed overseas
* You must present a valid state issued ID or drivers license at the polling place. If something doesn’t match, you don’t vote
Electronic voting needs a complete overhaul, but that's a whole topic of its own.
