Yes, we would like something a bit more than self-attestation to determine if someone is a citizen.


Could you be any more racist? Sheesh man.

Member bamaATL? That was her schtik. That black people were too dumb and too poor to manage to get an ID. Yet they would need them for:

Getting a job
Boarding a plane
Rabble rabble

And all 10 million are Democrats that vote. Republicans are evil geniuses.

Perhaps what you are figuring out is that Democrats are against all barriers to voting for citizens. Every citizen should be able to vote. Republicans are in favor of limiting the right to vote and making it more difficult for citizens to vote. Glad you
are finally seeing the truth.


Holy frick you’re retarded…


Pray tell……. With zero barriers to voting…. How would you determine the person voting is a citizen or not?

Multiple posters have asked you since yesterday for some examples.

Once again, you are proving good with the slogans but poor with the details to back them up.

Republican voter supression has a long history.

quote:

The key figure in writing and implementing the 1871 Federal Election law was U.S. Commissioner John I. Davenport, the fiercest Republican partisan of the era, who created a vast federal election machine explicitly designed to check the vote in New York and other Northern cities. Appointed U.S. Commissioner and Chief Supervisor of Elections for the Southern District of New York by the U.S. Second Circuit Court in 1871, Davenport spent a quarter century claiming to prevent fraud that in fact mostly consisted of intimidating legitimate urban Democratic voters.


quote:

But the evidence from numerous congressional investigations and other testimony shows that many of those routinely arrested or warned by mail to stay away from the polls—victims of Davenport’s “bulldozing” as it was called—included perfectly legitimate city voters: Civil War veterans who held naturalization papers issued by courts after their discharge from the Union army; men who had lost their naturalization papers; and other citizens, both naturalized and native born, who had attempted to vote legally. They would all be let go after an election and virtually none were ever prosecuted for violating the laws.



quote:

Davenport held deep prejudice against cities and urban voters, as when he once contrasted the largely Republican voters of upstate St. Lawrence County—“plain, temperate, substantial farmers, possessed of intelligence, discrimination and industry”—with the mostly Democratic voters in the neighborhoods of lower Manhattan, whom he described as “degraded, intemperate, ignorant and criminal in character.”



he's a little more eloquent than this board but the sentiment remains.

Conservative operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman were sentenced in Michigan to probation, community service, and fines after pleading no contest to election law violations. They orchestrated deceptive robocalls in 2020 designed to suppress voter turnout in urban areas, falsely claiming that voting by mail would result in warrants, debt collection, and mandatory vaccines

There is a thing called trust, but verify. You can't just walk up to vote and declare you are who you are, unless you produce an ID, such as a driver's license.

Agreed, as long as you are of voting age.

In 2008, flyers were distributed in the southern part of Virginia and on the campus of
George Mason University claiming to be from the Virginia State Board of Elections. The
flyers falsely stated that “[a]ll Republican party supporters and independent voters
supporting Republican candidates shall vote on November 4th…All Democratic party
supporters and independent voters supporting Democratic candidates shall vote on
November 5th.”


quote:

During Wisconsin’s gubernatorial recall election earlier this month (June 2012),
Wisconsin voters received robocalls saying “If you signed the recall petition, your job is
done and you don’t need to vote on Tuesday.”13 A spokesperson for Governor Scott
Walker denied any involvement with the calls and the source of the calls remains
unknown.


quote:

In Ohio, voters reported being confronted “with a sea of election-related
misinformation.”16 National media reported that some voters received calls stating that
Republicans were to vote on Election Day, while Democrats were to vote the following
day.17 Further, an election official reported that she had received multiple reports
concerning robocalls that provided incorrect information about polling places.


quote:

On Election Day in 2010, 112,000 Democratic households in Maryland received
robocalls stating, "Hello. I’m calling to let everyone know that Governor O’Malley and
President Obama have been successful. Our goals have been met. The polls were correct,
and we took it back. We’re okay. Relax. Everything’s fine. The only thing left is to watch
it on TV tonight. Congratulations, and thank you."4
The robocalls were authorized by Paul E. Schurick, the campaign manager for former Governor Bob Ehrlich, and were made to voters in Baltimore and Prince George’s County, the state’s two largest African
American-majority jurisdictions.5 In one of the very few cases of a court trial for
deceptive practices, Schurick was prosecuted under Maryland election law which
prohibits a person from willfully and knowingly influencing or attempting to influence a
voter’s decisions whether to go to the polls to cast a vote through the use of fraud.6
A jury found Shurick guilty for trying to influence votes through fraud, failing to identify the
source of the call as required by law and two counts of conspiracy to commit those
crimes.


Republicans love supressing votes

It would make voting more difficult for many women, e.g., those with a different surname on their birth certificate post- divorce or deceased spouse. I don’t hear Democrats limiting the harm to Democratic women, only…
