Not for long.
22% Favor Stealing Elections
Yeah, but the dems say this ain’t so.
America really, really needs leadership which advocates policies which grow American businesses, in America, and benefit those of us in the American workforce.
Globalization is killing America.
Bring back American businesses. GOP bring back American businesses.
Now.
Kinda surprising, surely more than 22% in this country are Dems.
How true. Consider the Election officials in some areas are not citizens. Then you have Holder/DOJ saying it is unfair. Until we impeach or convict Holder, nothing will change.
Let’s stop the early and/or absentee voting (except for the military). It is an opportunity to make ballots disappear. I know damn well that’s what they’re doing.
Watching the news reports recently of voting in Crimea, I was interested to note all voters presenting some form of ID before voting.
Amen to that methodology!
“require proof of citizenship before allowing someone to register to vote”
Different from the headline.
Yes, for registering, but I wouldn’t be against it every time they actually vote.
Also, note that the only reason that citizens are so concerned about federal elections is because of the federal government's perceived powers. In other words, as a consequence of parents not making sure that their children are being taught the federal government's constitutionally limited powers, people don't understand that the states have never granted Congress, via the Constitution, the specific power to establish much of the federal spending programs that many citizens now rely on. Corrupt federal politicians then take advantage of low-information voters by making all kinds of constitutionally indefensible campaign "promises" in order to get themselves elected.
what the heck is wrong with the other 22%??? Are they ILLEGALS??? Probably
Requiring proof of citizenship would obviously be just another right wing extremist attempt to suppress the vote, and it would endanger Dim success in many parts of the US.
78% you say?
That leaves 22% of the American population as total idiots.
Just sayin’
Haters
That means 22% are still stupid.
78%?! What the heck is wrong with this country?! 100% of Americans should DEMAND that proof of citizenship be provided in order to register to vote.
Quite reasonable. However, at present I’m not aware of any easy way for a native-born citizen to prove citizenship.
I had to jump through a number of hoops a decade or so ago to get a passport.
IOW, if we’re going to require people to prove citizenship before registering to vote, then we need to make it reasonably easy to do so.
This tends, at least, to point us back in the direction of a national ID card. Which a lot of conservatives oppose for other reasons.
BTW, I found the passport ID requirements more than a little disturbing. The two primary docs required were SS card and birth certificate. While these certainly proved a Sherman Logan was born in the US, how did they prove that I was the Sherman Logan in question?
Went through a similar issue recently with my wife and her driver’s license. Had to get a copy of the marriage license from a county in MO. But that was all handled over the phone, with no real way to prove that the Miss Wilson on the birth certificate was the one who became Mrs. Logan. Anybody could have called up claiming to be Mr. Logan and get a cc on the marriage license.
Possibly there’s some mechanism here I don’t understand.
Only 78%? It should be 100%!
Strange, you would think that such a requirement would be widely discussed by elected officials if it's so popular among voters. Plus, the citizenship requirement to vote, in and of itself, is already on the books in every state of the Union. Yet, to the best of my knowledge, not a single congresscritter nor state legislator has been making a big issue about voter registrants proving citizenship. Not even "conservative" Republicans. What the heck are they scared of?
