It’s usually because they’re trying to attract females. They are an odd bunch.
I'd like to see how the SJW explain THAT! "Well, we were against voter ID because the poor and old couldn't afford it. But, now, we're going to use voter ID so that we can punish those people who don't vote ... probably the poor and the old."
No, the Dems are just upping the ante in their Marxist-like grab for total power over our lives.
If you go to Google map for “directions” to New York City and State, it will say, read “1984”.
This Glick woman is a budding Marxist/fascist in the best Democrat Party style of insanity.
New York reminds me of those communist countries where Dear Leader is re-elected by 99% of the vote because he is the only name on the ballot and the party concludes it was all a fair election.
Rachel ManCow in ten years?
Just checked the news here at FR and in the space of some 30 seconds I see that someone has been fined by the govt for architectural concept work...a Kennedy thinks the govt should own our organs by default...and now this creature wants to punish people for not voting.
What has become of America?
OK...the reason they say that requiring a photo ID to vote is bad is it places an “undue burden” on the poor (even though it would eliminate vote-fraud.)
However, THIS is an idea that says to me “we don’t like the results we are getting even though we can ‘vote the graveyard’ NOW, we want to FORCE more poor people to vote.” How is fining the poor $10 for FAILING to show up and vote assumedly-Democrat NOT an “undue burden”?
If the govt can force you to buy health insurance, they can force you to buy anything.
Democrats are so freaked out over losing an election, I’m surprised they don’t suggest a firing squad if you don’t vote.
Of course Republicans could get an opt out...
If you asked me to pick the gender based on that photo, I’d select none of the above.
It IS compulsory to vote see the Australian Electoral Commission form if you don’t below

I cant post docs or pics so maybe somebody can help
Cheers
It is indeed compulsory to vote in Australia; been that way since 1924. The fine is $26 if you do not vote.
New Zealand has never had compulsory voting. The two countries are not alike in this respect.
Some other idiot liberal will cry this will disenfranchise “poor and minorities” because they can’t afford the fine. But another will “fix it by having a default vote for democrat for all those who don’t make it to the polls.
You give the people of Manhattan WAAAAAY to much credit.
Sometimes, given poor enough choices, abstaining from voting may be the best political choice available.
If you like your politician you can keep your politician but you have to vote for them before you know who they are and can they hold a shovel ready job cause lots of stalls in new york need mucking
Forcing people to vote or be taxed. funny how stupid people can run for office and get away with stupid sh## like this
And when the wards of the state don’t vote WE get to cover their fines. This way the Democrats win no matter what. If they vote, they vote Democrat. If they don’t vote we pay their fines and the democrats steal the money to buy more votes with.
Dems know that black voters in PA, WI, and MI could have put Hillary in the White House and didn’t. They need to address that...
If this law passes it will last until someone refuses to vote gets fined $10 and argues he does not vote as a political protest. The courts will have no trouble declaring this law unconstitutional.
