No doubt whatsoever.
The problem cannot be solved without a return to Election Day.
No early voting (which is an abomination for more than one reason). No mail voting. No same-day registration. No college students who pay out-of-state tuition or who drive cars with out-of-state plates. No "provisional" ballots. End motor voter. No online or electronic voting. Absolutely, positively, every countable vote in a secure location under bipartisan poll watchers by last hour of Election Day.
What you have right now is the RESULT of electoral reform.
When the Democrats started their push to make sure "every voice was heard", instead of saying, "How can we help?" the Republicans should have said, "Hell, no!"
But they didn't, and now we are living with the results.
Nibbling around the margins of the problem without an overarching PRINCIPLE is doomed to fail.
The GOP wants voter ID, they want no illegals voting. In five years, when the Democrats are pushing for eight year olds to vote, Republicans will draw the line at ten.
What is the PRINCIPLE that has been stomped on and discarded? What should we be defending?
It's simple.
Way too many people are voting. There is such a thing as being qualified to have a voice in our public affairs, and it's not putting fog on a mirror to show you are breathing.
Now that I’ve stolen a senate seat, how much is in it for me?
Mission Accomplished...President-Trump-hating RINOs.
