“Jim Barton called the ruling bad news, because it may mean lower voter turnout if only citizens can vote.”
This is the Babylon Bee right???
Insane..
Yes, but the Constitution requires ONLY US Citizens voting doesnt it?
Isn’t voting in federal elections a federal issue?
I really do not understand why people are not mad as hell that our local, state, and federal governments are making it easy for noncitizens to Register to Vote.
Are too many people waiting to cry and whine on November 5th when Trump loses because noncitizens voted for the Democrat?
FReepers, this is something each of you can do now.
Ask your Secretary of State how many of the Registered Voters in your state have a matching REAL ID Driver’s License or ID Card.
As Bannon says: ACTION, ACTION, ACTION
Allowing foreign, illegal aliens to vote is an insurrection by the bag ‘o’ sh*t government against the people of the United States. We need a national vote by the American people (those who pay taxes) to decide if we want foreigners to vote in our elections. The only reason they’re here is because they screwed up their own crap hole country. Voting at home is the only reason they are here begging for asylum. I don’t think we need those maggots to screw up our country. If they really feel they gotta vote, they can take their asses home and vote there.
Jim Barton sounds like a real piece of meat with two eyes.
The fix is in in every state of the union...
At least 10-to-15 million of the 60-million migrant invader vermin already in the country are set to vote in November...
Nothing and no one has done anything substantial to stop them...
Agreed! And the GOP, Trump campaign, etc. should having a shizzit fit filing lawsuits NOW, not after ANOTHER steal happens.
Isn’t voting in federal elections a federal issue?

For the most part “no”. States are in charge of conducting federal elections. There have been Constitutional Amendments and some federal laws which give the federal government grounds to intervene, but those only involve cases in which voting rights are illegally denied. Federal law does not REQUIRE proof of citizenship only that there is a penalty if one DOES vote illegally. This is why the Dems (and even some Republicans) don’t want a federal law requiring proof. That suddenly torpedoes the who slow walking process of expanding voting-rights to “global citizens” instead of US citizens.
I thought the Bidenskyyyyyyyyyyyyyy street taco hounds and carnies were allowed to blow off any federal court decisions that they didn’t like.
If Kati the lard assed porker allows illegal aliens and foreigners vote in our Federal elections EVERY ARIZONA BALLOT SHOULD BE THROWN BACK INTO THE DUMPSTER AND BURNED.
Until Sept?.... WELL THAT MAKES A LOT OF FR’KN SENSE!!
When the Electoral College meets don’t accept or allow AZ electors to participate.
You’d like to think so, but no it doesn’t. I write as someone who taught Constitution word-by-word to 7th graders for more than 25 years. Through amendments the Constitution says that states cannot deny the vote on account of race, sex, lack of payment of poll tax and to people over 18 years of age.
Congress and state legislatures have passed additional laws regarding the restrictions on the right to vote.
So since everyone blames Californians for the democrats being in control of the state despite it being the illegals who voted that way, does that mean I now get to blame Arizonans when Arizona turns blue?
But as you correctly point out -
Federal law does not REQUIRE proof of citizenship only that there is a penalty if one DOES vote illegally.
And that penalty includes misdemeanor fine or imprisonment, deportation and even permanent ineligibility for U.S. citizenship. Ergo, it is a quite serious issue.
It would seem entirely obvious that states that do not wish to participate in, or even accept the results of corrupted federal elections would be free to direct their congressmen to vote at the Joint Session against the certifications of states who do not confirm citizenship.
Accepting or rejecting the votes of states is the sole purpose for the Joint Session!
