"All you need to know about Trump is how he treated his mentor, Roy Cohn, after he got AIDS."

Hell, all you have to know about Trump is Roy Cohn was his mentor. The guy is the historical bastard child of Hitler and The Devil.

Any surprise Trump matches all the hallmarks of the Anti-Christ?

"Trump's going to find those 11,781 votes if it kills him."

Let's hope!

Frankly, I've never been so disappointed in cholesterol.

"How do you know 100s of ballots are just sent to an address, and some one just votes with them?"

Because hundreds of ballots sent to one address would be suspect, true voters would report missing ballots, voters would report votes made in their name, and signature matches wouldn't match.

FFS, do you think somebody just shows up and asks for two dozen ballots?!?

"What is a "Universal mail-in" ballot? One without a chain of custody? "

"Of course not. They're serialized, water-marked, and embedded with identifying marks much like a dollar bill.

Only morons believe there is NO chain of custody.

"Hold on to your seat - I agree with you."

Do you also agree forcing in-person voting is easier to control than mail-in ballots?

" to insure only those qualified are voting."

Should it be made easier, or harder, for every qualified voter to cast every qualified vote?

"One who can say we need I.D. verification to vote."

ID verification is required to register.

Registering is required to vote.

Any additional barriers to voting will be additional barriers to voting. And demanding day-of, in-person is the easiest to suppress; more voters than all the vote fraud convictions in the history of the Heritage Foundation website.

" What Danforth was initially proposing is EVERY single voter receives a mail in ballot automatically without being requested."

No, I was pointing out how the mere act of registering is a proactive admission one would like to vote.

My bottom line is every legal voter should be able to cast their legal vote in the manner in which they choose, not the manner in which you choose for them.

And why?

Because the manner "allowed" by you is subject to suppression. A fact you've yet to address, ever.

"every election you need to register "

You're joking, right? Every local, municipal, county-wide, state-wide, and national?!?

Say it with me, suppressionists: An additional barrier to voting, won't be an additional barrier to voting!

"dan, my dear, my intent is to run jeff's troll threads"

Okay.

I'll unplonk, one of these days.

Be Well.

TH-

I usually like the intelligent posts you write.

I never enjoy the Turette's crap. It makes threads unreadable.

Please don't make folks plonk you. Get back to the thoughtful, intelligent stuff.

My two cents. And worth every penny.

"If not, how do you clean the rolls?"

Information on deaths, information on relocation, and periodic postcards of confirmation to non-voters.

And a sensible realization some folks only register to vote in major elections. Remember: a 7-yr cleanse chart means folks who miss ONE Presidential election can be excised, right before November.

"Not at the Bank of America I go to."

What??? No private guards at the public kiosk in your downtown?

You poor, poor victim.

"Republicans want ICE guarding polling stations to prevent people from voting."

That would be fine by me, if ICE had a perfect record.

Instead, they're given bonuses when they kidnap American citizens.

"Better yet, no ballots get mailed unless requested"

Best yet, allow legal voters who legally register to opt-in for auto-mailed ballots.

That way, everyone gets their choice...except the suppressionists.

"What about those who prefer to vote in person?"

They can trade their mail-in ballot for a mail-today ballot.

Just like my 83yr old MIL had to do.

See? Easy.

Simple question: Should it be EASIER, or HARDER, for the legal voter to cast a legal vote?

"That award was given to him by Barack Obama."

Well, if that doesn't prove Homan never took a bribe, NOTHING does.

Oh...

...right.

Nothing does.

"Tom Homan, on tape taking a bribe"

Which would usually lead to multiple threads posted by Bellringer, if only things were (D)ifferent.

Translation:

We've partially addressed the havoc we've caused.

"I did that and don't want a ballot mailed to me. Same for just about anyone who prefers to vote in person."

Then they can opt out.

See? Easy.

And every legal voter gets to participate the way THEY want, rather than the way YOU want.

"I'm fine with mail in ballots BY REQUEST."

And I'm fine with assuming a request when one registers to vote with a valid ID.

"Do you not see the problem with mailing everybody a ballot whether it's requested or not?"

Not everybody.

Just registered voters who proved their ID when they proactively registered.

"No, (MTG')s ALWAYS been a kook to me."
~Bellringer

Not according to your keystroke count.

Before she turned on Trump, the count equaled Blutarsky's GPA.

Does it then come with universal mail-in ballots?

"No one is trying to make sure someone doesnt vote."

Nonsense.

Every additional barrier to voting is an additional barrier to voting.

In-person, day-of, is the easiest to suppress: construction, bus line interruptions, lane closures, long lines, fewer precincts...all are suppression tactics.

And more votes get suppressed that way than ALL the Heritage Foundation vote fraud convictions put together.
