But naturally, this is another Dem attempt to get their base of ininformed voters to the poll.
No. On the contrary we should attempt to bribe people not to vote. Here’s a pack of smokes of you don’t vote. Here’s a sammich if you don’t vote.
Not only NO, but HELL NO!..................
If anything, the US needs to restrict the privilege of voting so that only net taxpayers, current or retired miliary service members and NO welfare recipients of any sort are permitted to vote.
Not everyone should vote just as not everyone should pilot an airplane.
How about efforts to stop people from voting multiple times, stopping the dead people from voting, stopping felons from voting, illegal aliens from voting, and other voter fraud. Every election we read stories about some counties having more votes than residents of that county (blue counties of course). But then again... if I recall, proposed measures to stop voter fraud is considered racism.
No.
Should the U.S. Adopt Compulsory Voting?
__________________________
Nope. But we should return to the Constitution when it allowed only land-owners to vote.
If this nation wants REAL change,move election Day to April 15th.....
We already do. It’s called the electorial college. You don’t have to show up and your votes are hijacked.
Ever notice how the Left tries to ban anything they don’t like, and make mandatory anything they do like?
It’s a personality disorder.
“this is another Dem attempt to get their base of ininformed voters to the poll”
Exactly.
There are people who have a duty NOT to vote. Any democratic form of government requires a competent, INFORMED citizenry. Any citizen who is not competent and informed has a moral responsibility to NOT vote.
If I don’t know anything about something on the ballot (like judges or something where you can’t find information) I leave that blank, don’t vote on that. My ignorant 50/50 chance of being a decent vote should not negate the vote of somebody who knows what they’re doing.
Hell no!
Did they say how many voted more than once?
ML/NJ
No, we should go back to only allowing property owners the right to vote.
We need voting licenses.
Do you have to take a test to drive? ........ Sure you do. Voting should be a PRIVILEGE like driving. And you should HAVE to take a test to vote. Basic knowledge of American history and civics.
If asked who won the civil war......and you answer the “blue”. Sorry, your just too stupid to vote.
Hell NO!!!
We should make the franchise something to strive for! It should be a jealously guarded privilege!
One of the most annoying things about America today, actual voter fraud to one side, is that any schmuck or schmuckette above the age of 18 who can be enticed into a voting booth can negate my well-reasoned vote — even if he/she/it is incapable of tying shoelaces or signing his/her/its own name!
Less obstacles to voting? Try MORE! I want a basic reading and citizenship test - IN ENGLISH. I want voters to provide identification. I want a damn dress code! No shirt, no shoes, no ballot!
Make it as difficult as possible for people to vote and the cheaters will be easier to catch and the drooling half-witted parasites will stay home!
I don’t know about compulsory, but would be nice to vote FOR someone.
For most of my adult life, too much of my voting has been holding my nose and voting for who I dislike the least!
Voting should be a rewarding, joyous occasion, with a legitimate hope for improvement. Most of the time I see it as a blocking exercise - “well if enough of us turnout, maybe we can keep the bigger jackass out of office.”
How about a property requirement for voting. I like that better.
