Because this is Louisianna perhaps a can of Colt 45 Malt Liquor would work better than Thunderbird. I am just trying to help the dimocrats out!

what about amending the bill to redefine a voter as one who owns property within the voting district.

$40...if you vote twice. Paid to your nearest relative if you’re deceased when you cast your vote(s).

How do you plan to get $10 from every single person in United States? Over half don't pay taxes...

That is why I am intrigued with the possibility here. In theory, we now have an actual money audit trail to the votes. If the dead, illegals, Micky Mouse and Fido are going to vote, then they need to associate a valid SSN with that ballot in order to collect the $10 - which I assume would be paid on the spot. (interesting security concerns with $10 x #_of_voters_in_precinct at hand).

It is no longer just unenforceable election fraud, now we have the fiercest, tyrannical and evil entity in the world policing the ballot box - the Internal Revenue Service. Defrauding Welfare, Section 8 and SNAP is considered standard practice whereas at least half the current recipients are engaging in massive fraud. The only time there is an attempt to prosecute fraud it is almost always a physician defrauding the various Medicaid/Medicare programs. But this changes the rules - it is now "tax fraud" with serious penalties.

If Hector Lupe Gonzalez fresh from Honduras with his bogus stolen SSN votes, $10 will be taken from the Treasury and the IRS will allegedly be notified.

The Government always insists on convoluted forms complete with thick instruction booklets written in every language since Babel, so there will be massive amounts of paper-work which will do one of two things: require burdensome community organizer involvement in shepherding the illiterate, drug-addled, and insane, aka: "Typical Demoncat Voter" or they will be too discouraged by the paperwork for a measly $10 and just go outside and sell their SNAP voucher to the nearest pimp leaving one less vote for the Enemy.

In effect, the SSN and the 1090 becomes the de facto, ultimate Voter ID, where we filter voters, in all practicality, on the ability to have a paying job and the ability read and write. Eliminating the demographic that finds $10 too little and too difficult to navigate the labyrinth of paperwork for might just save the Republic.

I guess knowing proper English is not a prerequisite for being a journalist? Although, given the extreme leftist tilt of many journalists, I'd guess overall intelligence isn't really necessary, either.

I'd say you're correct on both points.

In Chicago here they vote early and often one could get rich with this kind of proposal.

Ok, so everyone has to fork in $10. Now, who is likely not to fork over the money then have to prove who they are to get it back? So everyone would have to have a picture ID? Then there is the point of who could get the $10 twice by voting twice, and how about dead people voting without a picture ID? Hmmmm?!

Voter fraud often consists of people showing up at the polls and voting a legitimate voter's name, thanks to the lack of I.D. requirements to vote. Imagine how many people will show up to vote someone else's name again and again and get 'their' ten dollars 'back' under this scheme.

Also, no one is going to require poor people to pay ten dollars for voting pre election, but the poor will still collect their ten for voting.
