courts have given themselves far too much power lately

[umgud]

So, it remains legal for illegals to vote?

[cripplecreek]

We had a citizenship checkbox on our ballot applications for about 1 primary election.

I think its still there but doesn’t ask the question the same way and you’re signing an affidavit to the effect that you know the law and are voting legally.

[Salvey]

Little by little, our rulers are chipping away at ours and states’ rights.

[Yaelle]

This is too insane for insanity.

Such a huge bleeping effort to MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE no one gets asked for their ID before voting.

[SeminoleCounty]

The only reason you do not check voter ID is to commit voter fraud. Period

[DeWalt]

Why in the hell is any state asking the feds for permission to do anything.

[Gay State Conservative]

Last year I went to Town Hall to cast an absentee ballot in our special Senatorial election (it's Massachusetts so yes,the Marxist won).While there I asked the town clerk if they ever asked for ID before handing out an absentee ballot."Oh no",was her stunned reply,"that's against state law".I then asked her if proof of citizenship was required to *register* to vote."No,that too is against state law" was the reply.

I'm deeply ashamed and embarrassed by how far the land of my birth has fallen.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Trying to kick the states in the balls.The states need to tell the fed “Go pound sand” and mean it.

You need an ID to pick up your vacation mail at the P.O.

racist Federal post office........

Voter fraud is inexcusable. We are SO lucky in this country to have all the freedoms we have.

[Lurker]

States do not have rights. States have powers.

[Graewoulf]

” - - - States are vowing to go to the courts for permission to ask newly registered voters to show proof of citizenship after a federal commission ruled late Friday that it’s up to the national government, not states, to decide what to include on registration forms. - - - - “

The wussification of State Attorney Generals and Governors continues - - - .

[VerySadAmerican]

A “federal commission” decided what should be on a “federal” ballot. Isn’t that special!

[trebb]

The EAC said states can check driver’s license databases or ask federal immigration authorities for information, but they cannot tell the federal government what to include on federal forms.

Part of the problem is that the States have become bigger versions of welfare babies and think they have to ask permission to exercise their Constitutional rights/responsibilities. If they can't get the Feds to put something on a form, they should add their own form and force the Feds to take action - not courts-orders, actual action...

[Gritty]

Yeah, but get a concealed Handgun License to exercise your Second Amendment rights and the state still makes you give fingerprints, get intensive criminal and mental health background checks, requires you take special classes, charges you $120 for the paperwork, restricts how and where you can carry, demands you produce the permit if stopped by a police officer, and you are still at risk for felony prosecution in certain other states if you carry there.

Am I missing something here on our "civil rights" lesson...?

[rfreedom4u]

go to the courts for permission

Permission? since when do states have to get permission from a court?
