"'We don’t check' For Citizenship"

Without voter ID, the only thing that prevents people from casting fraudulent and multiple votes is the honor system.

I live in Texas ans I have to show a registration card as well as an ID like a drivers license. How are these people getting around that?

When I moved here and I went to get a drivers license I had to show my marriage certificate and birth certificate. They actually made me go home and come back with my divorce papers
because the name on birth certificate had my maiden name. I was at that office 2 times that day. So how these people are registering without proper documentation is astounding to me.

This is true. Election judges and election clerks check for voter registration and proof of identification, not citizenship. When someone is registered to vote they have already been vetted for citizenship requirements at the point of registration (Drivers License or County Voter Registrar) by someone trained to vet proof of citizenship documents. An election clerk has about 4 hours of training on how to look up voter registration, what are acceptable forms of ID, how to process voters through showing ID to “cast ballot”, and how to handle exceptions. At the election I worked if someone wasn’t registered to vote in the county they couldn’t vote in that county. If they could provide proof of voter registration and ID and still were not in the county system they were given a provisional ballot.

When a person sneaks into another country-—they have left whatever HONOR they might have had behind.

The politicians that won’t stop this behavior also HAVE NO HONOR.
