It seems the democrats are fighting tooth and nail against requiring voter ID. They are claiming that requiring ID to vote is voter suppression. Think I'm kidding? Watch this short video on X.
Hakeem Jeffries just called the SAVE Act “A voter suppression bill.”
I would think that all U.S. citizens would be happy to show ID if it helps in preventing voter fraud. I know I am. Currently, the requirements vary from state to state. If it were up to me, every state would require the appropriate ID and proof of citizenship if deemed necessary in order to cast a ballot. There would also be nearly no mail-in ballots with only a few exceptions and those carefully scrutinized. Elections must be fair and honest.
*Who cannot vote?
- Non-citizens, including permanent legal residents, cannot vote in federal, state, and most local elections.
- Some people cannot vote after being convicted of a felony or if they are currently serving time for other types of crimes. Rules are different in each state. Check this guide from vote.gov to understand the laws in your state.
- Some people who have a mental disability may not be able to vote. Learn about your voting rights. Rules vary by state.
One has to wonder how people can hate their own country and countrymen so much. Money and power, I guess.
