Republicans have a window of opportunity. Two years (and most likely four years) with control of the house and senate and presidency.
There is no more important issue at this time in the history of the US than vote fraud. It must be stopped. Institutions must be put in place to stop it forever.
Something along the lines of secure identification of voters and real enforcement of one-citizen-one-and-only-one vote.
If this is not done, the RATS take over... forever.
Once they start winning big with vote fraud, there's no stopping them.
Ever.
They already won. And the Stupid Party is too apathetic to surround State Government buildings in Olympia with hundreds of thousands paralyzing it until they get a revote.
Exactly. I've been saying that since 2000 -- but the GOP has its best opportunity right now. Electoral Reform has got to be made a priority.
I know, I know, there's always somebody going to say "you can get a phoney I.D. you know!"
OK then! Require that a digital picture be made of that I.D., and the person demanding to vote when they show up to vote, and they don't show up on the voter lists. Maybe even require a thumb print to get a "provisional" ballot.
If it turns out they are fraudulent, PROSECUTE THEM! You'll have their picture, a picture of their phoney I.D. as proof of fraud, and a thumb print to prove actual I.D..
Discrimination? Hell yeah! It's good to discriminate between an eligible, and a fraudulent voter! It would only be RACIAL discrimination if it required these measures of ONE RACE OF PEOPLE over another.
Any idiot poll worker can snap a digital camera pic. They make simple stickers that hold a thumb print, (I was required to do that in the 70's in K.C. MO. to cash my paychecks at my own bank! They stuck the print to the back of the check.)
DEMAND that your Senators, and Representatives introduce and pass something to address voter fraud before the next national election. And if you get the run around, let em know that they don't have job security. Tell them that you will work tirelessly to REPLACE them with someone who will REPRESENT the wishes of the governed!
It will only get worse, if they continue to get away with it SCOTT FREE!
