“Registering and voting should be harder.”

I absolutely agree. You can’t cash a check without some form of identification. You should have to make an effort to vote, as it is more likely that if you are motivated you will have some knowledge of the issues. Same day registration should never be allowed, as it does not allow time to check the validity of the registration.

On the other hand, if they want to push for easier registration and voting, then I would push for very steep penalties for proven voter fraud (at least 2 years in prison - mandatory, and a permanent loss of voting rights).

Further, if they want to talk about ‘disenfranchisement’, then they need to recognize that every fraudulent vote dilutes and therefore disenfranchises a qualified voter’s vote.
