Nestled within the bill is the American Coronavirus/COVID-19 Election Safety and Security Act. ......The so-called 'ACCESS Act' is a clear and present danger to election integrity and to the sanctity of the franchise.... In short, the proposal nationalizes election laws, is devoid of any election integrity protections, and sweeps aside any conflicting state election laws.
Regardless of existing state laws, every state would have to provide 15 days of early voting, same-day voter registration (including same-day online registration), and electronic signatures rather than actual signatures....... The bill would also prohibit the use of any voter identification requirements, including photo identification or other identification documents.
The bill also has special requirements for absentee voting.
Requires states to allow absentee voting for any reason, eliminating state laws requiring a statutorily required excuse; *Prohibits any voter identification requirements for obtaining or casting an absentee ballot; *Prohibits any notary or witness requirements for casting ballots; *Limits signature verification requirements by imposing cumbersome due process obligations on election officials; *Requires online absentee ballot requests and processing; Extends these provisions to all elections, whether conducted during an emergency or not.
Most outrageous and dangerous of all, the act requires that every voting jurisdiction mail an absentee ballot to every registered voter for the November presidential election. Just to put that in perspective, more than 30 million absentee ballots were either lost in the mail, not returned, or rejected as invalid in the 2016 election. Nearly every state in the union has voter rolls that are dreadfully out of date, containing tens of thousands of invalid addresses of individuals who have moved or died.

Shove the Porkulus 4 bill and let the people out of citizens arrest.
If there was a serious deterrant these games would not be played. We dont even indict let alone prosecute jail or hang by the neck until dead. The last choice would be my choice in getting rid of these pukes
Any Republican Senators pushing to vote on this piece of crap?
The deterrent is to take the House back and reduce her back to minority status. If that happens she will likely resign.
People who PROHIBIT rather than demand voter ID and one person one vote are beneath contempt.
Funny if the electronic signatures have Nancy Pelosi's handwriting. Just helping them, she'll say.
This woman does everything she can to hurt Trump... and in the process she hurts millions of Americans.... and she comes out and says the most ridiculous lies ... does she think she is believable?? when she talks, she looks like and acts like someone taking drugs... old age drug hang on...
Probably Romneyrhino. But, he did vote with the other Republicans on the intelligence committee to subpoena Hunter Biden and others affiliated with the Ukraine cookie jar. Since he had an associate who might be implicated in that scandal, I was surprised, but perhaps he voted with the others because his one vote would have overturned the result and Republicans are mad enough with him as it is.
As does "motor voter",same day registration,"ranked choice" voting (Maine) and opposition to requiring IDs at polling places
Your lips to Gods ears! I will open a bottle of champagne on the day that we are rid of her.
I would guess Romney would....maybe Lynda Graham and Collins.
Don’t fall for it.
She's like a Pedophile waving ice-cream to unsuspecting voters!
Almost right. There will be a brokered Democrat convention, and Hillary and ???? will emerge as presidential candidate.
She was already planning to resign if Hillary had won.....of course when that didn’t happen her freedom to do so was locked back in handcuffs to do their bidding.
Not that I’m aware of.....but we now there will be those who will sit on the fence and pretend they care until they can make some revenue with their vote.
