The typical dishonest leftist talking points.


Of course Republicans don't want everyone to vote. Neither do democrats/leftists. For different reasons however.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but overwhelming fraud and illegal ballot casting does not equal more people voting, so you're confused on that one. Democrats do love it when Conservatives turn out in high numbers, because their corrupt 'win' is generally easier to cover up for many reasons. One reason high turnout is better for dems is it takes a long time for a battle, and by the time it plays out, their 'winner' is installed.

The electoral college is brilliant and cuts down on corruption. It's much easier to pull off fraud with a simple count of 'votes.'

think the better standard would be no vote if you received federal or state government assistance during that election cycle (usually a year). That removes the "bribe" aspect of social program election platforms and would really disintegrate the democratic party's base (the pandering).


I’d be fine with this too.

You didn't list the partisan ballot harvesting that makes this bill a non-starter

Last I checked we are a republic.

Anything that takes more power/rights from states and gives it to the fed is bad.

The voting rights bills would have expanded voter registration with automatic and same-day registration, increased access to the polls by expanding early and absentee voting, and created new criteria for determining which states must receive pre-approval from the Justice Department or U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia before enacting laws that would affect voting rights

None of those things are the purview of the federal government.

Using what though? I can walk up and just give a name and be registered or do you need some sort of racist identification?

With same day registration, i could travel to a blue district and vote red. If enough do the same, could flip a seat. Is why this is bad. My home area doesnt need my vote to stay red.

Both Republicans and democrats used to say the vote by mail is very easy to commit fraud with.


Democrats were also laying doubt on dominion for lost elections in 2018.

Hillary and the majority of democrats still say russia changed votes.

Let's be real. Republicans don't want everyone to vote. They win when fewer vote. They win because the Electoral College is a ridiculous byzantine way to determine a president. There was no voter fraud that impacted the election in 2020.


You’re dumber than hammered owl shite! Let me ask you a question.

If one party (the American Marxist/Dim Party) simply promises people free shite at taxpayer expense how long can a constitutional republic last. Don’t worry about giving me an answer because you’re either too stupid or you’re one of those people who are lining up for “free shite”.

Student loan forgiveness anymone?
