Schumer threatens to kill funding deal if House Republicans attach elections bill requiring photo ID, citizenship proof

You have to be 18 to vote.

 

Once the 15th amendment was passed it opened the door for federal review of elections to vote.  Why the objection to mandating and proving ONLY citizens to vote?


That's a Tom-lie. If you're 18, federal law says you must be allowed to vote, but there is no federal law saying that anyone younger can't vote. That determination is up to the states.

 

There is no objection anywhere, by anyone, to requiring citizenship for voters. Thus, Tom's question is Tom-dumb.

So kevin has no problem with requiring proof of citizenship and voter id to vote

Like it even matters anyway. 

 

Georgia has voter id and is run by Republicans.     That doesnt stop the crybaby MAGA pussies from saying the vote count was illigitmate there in 2020.   The biggest MAGA crybaby of them all and his personal cable news network are still chasing down that Jan 6 conspiracy.

 

We dont need to protect the voting volunteers getting their door kicked in by MAGA thugs.   We pardon the MAGA thugs who bashed cops over the head on Jan 6.   And now he wants his people at the federal level to take over state elections.    Welcome to fascism.    Good thing we have (barely) enough checks to get us to the midterms.    Dude belongs in prison.

Voter id was passed in 2021 a year after the 2020 election

I've already said that I "have a problem" with requiring those things to VOTE. I don't have a problem with requiring those things to REGISTER.

 

God, you're stupid.

And Republicans have been yeeping about "election fraud" for five years since.

Uh - no.   The Voter ID Act of Georgia passed in 2006.     Thanks for playing

Try paying attention

Because once a person is a registered voter, their signature is all that is needed to validate their ballot. Requiring ID to VOTE is redundant at best and discriminatory at worst.

 

DUHHHHHHHHH!

The key word being "stricter".  Georgia already had voter id.   All those contested ballots that Tulsi Gabbard is rounding up in Fulton COuntry as we speak were cast with voter id - per the law I already cited.

 

And Trump now says he wants that election to be run by Federal officers of his administration going forward. 

 

Be honest, Tom - you and your party dont want elections.  Whenever you lose you go straight to your Bigfoot conspiracies.  No voter ID law is going to change that, will it?
