This week, President Trump called on his party to nationalize American elections, an unconstitutional move ...
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com "Playing politics with the idea of fraudulent voters and stolen elections comes at a real cost to American confidence in our elections," Stephen Richer says in a guest essay. "It's an affront to our democracy and to all those who work to deliver free and fair elections."

**** House GOP Fast-Tracks Citizenship Proof To Vote Bill ****
"Republicans are moving quickly to pass a bill requiring voters to show proof of citizenship both to register and at the polls ahead of the 2026 midterm elections " a move that experts warn could disenfranchise millions of Americans.
Reactionary Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), the racist sponsor of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, bleated that House leadership would bring the proposal up for a vote next week.
The bill would require documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote, as well as requiring photographic identification that proves citizenship to cast a ballot. In most states, that means voters, even those who are already on the rolls, would need to bring a passport or original birth certificate to the polls. Only states with enhanced' driver licenses " Michigan, New York, Vermont, Minnesota and Washington " satisfy the SAVE America Act's heightened requirements " a REAL ID (used in most states) won't cut it."
~snip~
Good-for-no-one Chip Roy is running to succeed useless Texas AG Ken Paxton. This white supremacist called for a moratorium on all legal immigration to the US and he urged Dummkopf Trump to simply defy rulings by federal judges.

All you Trumpers really care about is gaming the elections in your favor. You don't GAF about free and fair elections.
I don't really know anyone who objects to voter ID. I take issue with other parts of the legislation that suppress votes. Such as the elimination of mail-in voting, which works very well in several states.
www.cpr.org
www.sos.state.co.us
Or the portion of the bill that might keep a significant # of married women from voting.
I live in Colorado. If you're so certain our election system can be significantly manipulated, then prove it.
My question for you Trumpers who advocate for one day, polling place only, paper ballot voting... with only hand counts:
How do you prevent the hand counters from cheating? Machines have already proven more accurate, everywhere.
OK, I wanted to include a song here. But it seems the song (Big Mouth - You Need An ID) is not available on the Internet.
!?!?!
But the lyrics are ...

You Need ID was released on January 1, 1988 by Rhino Atlantic as a part of the album Quite Not Right
Lyrics excerpt ...
...
Hey, guys
No problem tonight
The guy at the door is a personal friend of mine
It's the first thing you hear
When you try to slip into a bar
Just say that you left it
Outside in your car
So you back out the door
And you think it's a sin
'Cause without the right identification
They won't let you back in
You need ID
To get into a bar
You need ID
To drive a car
Where's your ID?
I can only imagine what it would be worth
To have a slip of paper with a pre-dated birth
You could say to the bouncer, "This ain't no jive
It's a fact, I was born in 1945"
You need ID
To get into a bar
You need ID
To drive a car
You need ID
When they say no
So what are we supposed to do?
Where are we supposed to go?
I say now, with this law, I must disagree
It's no fun for an underaged licensee
They say a picture ID ain't good enough and
You need a fingerprint and a retinal scan
You need ID
Or you won't get far
You need ID
To be a star
Identity
So what are we supposed to do?
Where are we supposed to go?
I don't know
There is some required identification
To achieve any level of inebriation
(I can't get no) gratification
'Cause I won't be of age 'til after graduation
No, no, no
Hey, hey, hey
No, no, no
Hey, hey, he-hey
Motels keep us out
Makes me want to shout
Got no place to go
No ID to show
No
Go
No
I took a lovely lady out on a date
With the hope that after dinner
She would take the bait
So when the waitress came
I ordered Coke with rum
But she looked at me and said
"You must be 21"
You need ID
To comb your hair
You need ID
To breathe the air
You need ID
To go anywhere
So what are we supposed to do?
No, no, no
Hey, hey, hey
All right, now, I'm gonna need a quart of vodka
(You need ID)
A half gallon of orange juice
(No, no, no)
A fifth of tequila, a fifth of Southern Comfort
(Hey, hey, hey)
And, uh, keep the change, man
(You need ID)
Hey, kid, I need to see some ID
(You need ID)
(No, no, no)
What, are you kiddin' me?
(Hey, hey, hey)
Do you know how old I am?
(No, no, no)
All right, man, I, I left it outside
(You need ID)
I'll be right back
(No, no, no)
I don't need this on a Saturday night

What? You live in a f*****g cave?
Thirty-six states have laws requesting or requiring voters to show some form of identification at the polls. The remaining 14 states and Washington, D.C., use other methods to verify the identity of voters. Most frequently, other identifying information provided at the polling place, such as a signature, is checked against information on file. See NCSL'sVoter Verification Without ID Documents.www.ncsl.org
Another blithering appears. 72% of states have voter, ID the rest have other safeguards. But your dumb*** bleats Buffoonisms.
