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...

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?

Recently, in Wisconsin, for most election, the majority of voters have been idiots.

"New Mexicans to decide if 'idiots,' 'insane' have right to vote" We know the Al-Quaedacrats voted for Hillary in New York, so why not?
To: elkfersupper
If approved, the amendment would scratch out references to "idiots" and "insane persons," which may have been considered reasonable when the state's constitution was written in 1912, but is considered offensive and meaningless by many people today. In clinical usage, the term "idiot" has a precise meaning: somebody with a measured IQ under 40, ie severely retarded. (the clinical definition of moron is IQ 40-60 and imbecile, IQ 60-80).
But of course the imbecile who wrote the article wouldn't know that...

They're not going to let Congressmen vote?

In most states not only can idiots vote but they seem to hold most of the elective offices.

Isn't megalomania insanity? Well, that would mean Hitlery wouldn't be able to vote for herself if she were a resident of NM. Same for the Big Creep Sugar Bubba, I suppose. Funny I believe that puts them on the same list with the likes of Saddam, Stalin, Hitler, Lenin ...sad. When only the dead are allowed to vote ...

The Democrats will get absentee ballots for every drooler and hallucinator under their care in nursing homes, and fill them out and send them in.
Here's a newspaper report from the 2000 Election.
TRENTON, N.J. (Reuters) - In a post-election fracas to rival the presidential battle in Florida, New Jersey Republican Dick Zimmer on Thursday demanded a recount in a U.S. House of Representatives election where he trails Democratic incumbent Rush Holt by fewer than 200 votes. Zimmer issued his call for a recount a day after he charged Democrats with voting irregularities for allegedly distributing absentee ballots to patients at a psychiatric hospital in hopes of aiding Holt's re-election to the House. The New York Times reported that the family of one hospitalized schizophrenic woman who believes she gets shampoo tips from God were outraged to learn she had voted for Holt. "I made up my own mind,'' the woman, Doris Mount, told the Times. "I usually vote Republican, but I admit I was a ticket splitter on this one.''

Let me see, the New Jersey court says that the law is clear that before 51 days a candidate can be substituted but after 51 days the law is silent, so it is okay to make up whatever. Insane? Feeble-minded? If they can be judges, why can't they vote?

I actually think the Republicans in NM are starting to figure out how to attract this idiot vote (I was a 32yr, 3rd generation NM resident until this past spring). Notice the last name of the (R) candidate....SANCHEZ.
I do have to say I loved Johnson's time in office. You don't have to agree with all he stands for, but he was a master at infuriating the dems.
To: elkfersupper
I see two words in that states future right now....Tamminy Hall!..I know the spellings incorrect but I think you get my meaning. The record of every mental institution in the state will be registered to one party. Wanna guess which one?
