The Arizona Scotus decision today ‘uncorks state power’.... The Left wanted state power stripped and they lost.
First,........Arizona can simply push the state forms in all state offices and online, and keep those federal forms in the back room gathering dust...... When you submit a state form, YOU HAVE TO PROVE CITIZENSHIP......Thanks to Justice Scalia, that option is perfectly acceptable.... Loss for the Left..... Victory for election integrity.
You might say,..... Thats a small victory... Nonsense. This was the whole ballgame to the groups pushing the Arizona lawsuit..... They lost, period.
Next,...... when voters use a state, as opposed to a federal, form, they can still be required to prove citizenship. .....The federal form is irrelevant in that circumstance.
After the decision today, states have a green light to do double- and triple-checking even if a registrant uses the federal form......
..... The Left wanted the submission of a federal form to mean automatic no-questions-asked registration.... This is a big loss for the Left because now states can put suspect forms in limbo while they run checks against non-citizen databases and jury-response forms......
Another significant victory in todays decision. The Left wanted to strip them of that double-checking power.
The decision today is a great example of how conservatives can be distracted by squirrels running past........... It is understandable and forgivable because they arent daily immersed in the long-term election-process agenda of the left-wing groups.........Nor do they daily involve themselves with the details of election process........ But having been in the preemption wars for nearly a decade, I can assure you this case is a big win, even if it doesnt appear so at first glance.
I think this was more or less a dumb ass thing to say. He admits his first reaction was to say this was a nothing decision, and he is in a position to know. Why should we be taken to task for having an immediate negative reaction as well.?
This guy's bedside manor needs a little polishing..., way to insult people who share your ideology.
