“Election reform”. To a liberal that means business as usual with millions of fraudulent ballots.

Two election reforms that I think would pass everywhere.

Must have a valid photo ID to vote.
Must be legal American Citizen to vote.

Opinion polls whatever they are worth show huge support for both things across all political lines.

Put those two simple to understand reforms on the ballot and I think you would see a major difference in voting patterns.

I want election reform: in person voting with picture ID required. No mail in ballots for federal elections. Absentee ballots only in very limited circumstances.

The “reforms” were mostly ranked choice voting, which is a tool to get liberals elected with a minority of the vote and was rejected in all states except Alaska where it won by 600 votes. The left spent 100 million pushing it, a lot of it reportedly dark foreign money.

“Must have a valid photo ID to vote.
Must be legal American Citizen to vote.”

“Dangerous, right-wing proposals” is what the AP would say.

You are correct, as am I, "ranked choice voting" IS election fixing.

IN NEVADA-—it was rejected.

NONE of the ads promoting it ever said a WORD about RANKED CHOICE VOTING.

Primary participation can be changed WITHOUT inserting RANKED CHOICE VOTING.

Many states had VOTER ID on the ballot.

IIRC—IT DID PASS...

They got on AZ ballot illegally anyway.
They never collected enough valid signatures, but filibustered the opponents until it was too late to remove them from the ballot!
Luckily they lost bigly, otherwise we will have lawsuits about that for next decade!

Yes!
It turns out, there is no requirement to prove citizenship to vote for president.
Here in AZ, they passed requirement that you have to prove citizenship to be registered for vote.
It turned out, this can be only a STATE requirement.
After some lawsuits, they settled that people who cannot give proof of citizenship must be still allowed to vote for President, senate and congressmen, but not for state reps, judges, propositions, etc.
So called Federal only voters!

You guys outside AZ, remember, there is NOT requirement to prove the citizenship to vote for President, and, in most states, to vote for everything!
Crazy!

This is the type of case that needs to go all the way to the Supreme Court and see what happens, the question is can a state implement a law that without a picture ID and proof of citizenship, you can’t vote.

“It turns out, in retrospect, we weren’t yet ready for prime time,”

Do you think that voters looked at what it did to Alaska and California and said "Hell no!!"

They want us to turn into the UK where even if you only got 30% of the vote you get to run the government.

How about, no.

Az requires picture ID (kind of useless, since most voters vote by mail where picture ID is not required), and proof of citizenship, but apparently, Federal government does NOT!
To accommodate Fed government, we have these “Federal only” voters!
