Another law that is not being enforced. Idiots and dead people constitute the majority of voters in NM. Probably the only state that will elect a former Clintonista (Bill Richardson) to public office (Governor.

Dems look to add to their base.

They already do. They're called Democrats.

Idiots have been allowed to vote for years. Look at the NJ Supreme Court for example...

Next, it will be the prisons and felons (ex-felons)?

Some idiots can even be voted for and become vice-Presidents like Gore......Quayle.......
To: Jaidyn
Or worse. No check on voter ID in NM.

They apparently do in Flori-duh.

Spent a (looooong) year in NM, and can verify that this law will simply cement current practice.
To: elkfersupper
In Florida, it is perfectly legal for idiots to try to vote. Fortunately, most don't succeed.

In cases like in Florida, just how does one determine the intent of an insane voter?

Sorry, I got booted off dial-up connection for a while. Ahhh! The pleasures of rural life.
This is yet another example of political correctness run amok. Ballot authors object to perfectly sensible language circa 1927.

Indeed. One of the definitions of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly, hoping for a different result.
To: Jaidyn
Because so many of their core constituents have been in jail/prison the dems are screaming BIG time to reenfrancise them. I mean after all you can't afford to lose one voter simply cause he's a killer or rapist who has been released early on parole.

Pardon me, but Dan Quayle was the same kind of "idiot" as Ronald Reagan. Back to DU for U.
To: elkfersupper
Recently, in Wisconsin, for most election, the majority of voters have been idiots.

Don't be so hard on yourself. It's everywhere. I am very concerned about the future of the Republic. The people in my household are forced to think. I'm not so sure about everyone else's
