Make election day election day.
I wish Trump pushed that sentiment. I wished he leaned on the repugnicant governors to get them to lean on whomever they needed to lean on—if needed—to make that happen.
Ditto.
Don’t see anything wrong with in-person early voting. Up here in N.GA it’s the same process regardless of which day it’s on. If you only do in-person voting on a single day, there can be massive lines and hours of wait-time. Might discourage the lazy welfare class, but on the other hand Dems have always cheated no matter the vote process.
“When the federal statutes speak of ‘the election’… they plainly refer to the combined actions of voters and officials meant to make a final selection of an officeholder… By establishing a particular day as ‘the day’ on which these actions must take place, the statutes simply regulate the time of the election, a matter on which the Constitution explicitly gives Congress the final say.” Foster v. Love, 522 U.S. 67, 71-72 (1997).
*THE DAY* – THIS IS VITAL
The voters vote. The officials count. These combined actions form “the election,” and the election must be decided on *the day*. States that failed to make a final selection of officeholder by midnight after Election Day have violated the statute, subjecting the nation at large to the very evils Congressionally mandated deadlines were drafted to prevent.
Federal Election Day statutes were designed to curtail fraud, and to infuse a prima facie sense of integrity in our electoral process. But these States – in failing to obey Congressional deadlines – have flagrantly attempted to preempt federal law.
Agreed, but is it a mistake for Republicans not to embrace and take advantage of the changed election paradigm?
And eliminate tax withholding.
