Democrat Keith Ellison thinks it’s difficult to vote in America and that it should be made far easier. Why does someone have to register to vote?
Because voting is a privilege and it should be hard (relatively speaking) to vote in order to prevent voter fraud:
About a hundred years ago, both political parties were caught STUFFING BALLOT BOXES with bogus votes, and the states decided to make it more difficult for a person to vote. So most of them set up a host of VOTING REQUIREMENTS, including REGISTRATION at least 10 to 30 days before an election. Most other democracies make it much easier for a citizen to vote. For example, some countries automatically register their citizens to vote. In the United States, the citizen is responsible for his or her own registration.
If the state is allowed to register people to vote, you can just imagine the shenanigans that politicians will go through to stuff the ballot boxes once again. Also what party would they choose for me?
No, we do it differently here the US in order to protect the vote as much as possible…because it should be protected. It’s a privilege. And that’s why states have taken even more steps to protect it, to prevent more voter fraud. People like Ellison hate that because they want to win at all costs, even if it means cheating.
And that’s why Ellison is a fool.
He is not a fool.
He is the Enemy Within.
anything to weaken America, he will be for...count on it
Keith Ellison is an anti-American, pro-islamist, far-left, Marxist piece of human garbage.
Why would I give two-thirds of a piece of rat sh!t what he thinks about anything?
Just hang around all day and vote as many times as you wish
On the other hand, he probably indorses the idea that gun owners should register.
keith elison (m). Not “d” or “r” or “i”.
Amen!
I am sad every time I have to think about someone like Ellison being elected to office.
I say make it easy to vote. You get a card with a barcode. You swipe it and you vote. I think it is not too much to ask someone to register, but the process should be streamlined and easy. But, in addition, if you abuse the right, if you vote fraudulently, you should face a severe fine and twenty-five years in prison.
For that matter, why should we have to vote at all? We can have people like Ellison decide things for us.

Why not just let everyone in China vote in our elections?
I have often asked myself, what kind of idiots elect representatives like Ellison?
How about the finger in the ink bottle? It seemed to work in Iraq! ... :-) ...
Let's start with a LIE.
“Why would I give &*#&^% what he thinks about anything?”
Because what he says today will be mainstream thought in 10 years; libs NEVER, EVER give up. NOT EVER.
Conservatives on the other hand, will shoot down other conservative unless they’re with ‘em 100%, ready to make changes NOW instead of waiting, or taking steps on their agenda one by one.
That’s what happens when you get a collection of Muslims all in one place.
Ellison is a commie activist.
WELL ... you gotta admit, going through the registration process is a bit more difficult than sticking your finger in an ink bottle! ... :-) ...
