How can this even be Constitutional?
America’s voting systems are becoming extremely unequal in that all standards are rapidly changing and being manipulated. Procedures, checks and management of mail-in requests, time of post-mark, time of return, government handling, signatures, period of review are all becoming greatly different.
And unequal standards, applied randomly and unequally - means ones voting rights and access vary greatly from state to state and town to town. This has got to be against both 14th and 15th amendments, as well as the Voting Rights Act.
When it comes to something like weights and measures or voting, the rule should always be; “STANDARDIZE,STANDARDIZE,STANDARDIZE”!
For at least the last 70 years we have needed a standardized ballot and voting regulations at the Federal level that pertain to ALL STATES and TERRITORIES.
Enough of this weird bullshit of changing the ballot format every year for every municipal election, state election, and federal election.
ONE STANDARD BALLOT format for all elections; a ballot is nothing but a list of candidates and new laws or regulations to vote yes or no on.
It is the CITIZENS RESPONSIBILITY TO BE AWARE of and KNOWLEDGEABLE of the current legislation and candidates.
LEGAL VOTER ID required to vote in ANY election at any level; Mandatory purging of all voter rolls every 4 years (it’s not that hard to re-register).
VOTER ID to be FEDERALLY ISSUED upon registering to vote; enough of this “I have a drivers license in 12 different states so I get to vote 12 times”.
I am not going to waste a lot of time here working out all the details but it’s not that hard to figure out.
Much as I hate giving the feds another job (that they will probably f#ck up), I think it is time for FEDERALLY MANDATED STANDARDIZED VOTING PROCEDURES in all states and territories, FEDERAL VOTER ID, and STANDARD BALLOTS.
Just seems strange to me that third world sh!tholes like Mexico and India can do this but we can’t.
I really don’t ever want to have to look at another picture of some goggle eyed moron looking cross eyed at another stupid punch card!
