Current Affairs 2024 POTUS race

Fake Melania.

Sad. Such low energy.

She's smiling too much to be the real Melania.
The real one has that "will he hurry up and die so I can get my money and split from this circus" pout.

On one thing I do agree with the republicans.
A vote should be on 1 day and on paper. Every community has to have a polling station within 3 miles.

No fuss, no discussions. People who can't vote can delegate that vote. One person can only have one 'delegation'.

Significantly disagree with that proposal.

Many people have work and caregiving duties or have physical difficulties getting to polling stations. Vote by mail provides them access so they can exercise their right.

Delegation to snother person would open up a difficulty in stopping voter fraud and enable coercion or false representation eg “it is OK love, I’ll just vote for you, you stay at home and look after the kids”

Staring at chip board beats voting for it?

Crazy ID isn’t required to vote though.

Not doing 30 pages. Not got strength.

You'd have to properly regulate the delegations. And you have a polling station within 3 miles. It's not like that's a problem in other democracies either.

How so? Voter fraud has never been an issue

We should be finding as many different ways to allow people to vote as possible in this day and age.

Not really

What's So Bad About Voter ID Laws? | League of Women Voters

Voter ID laws have long been debated in the United States. While supporters argue that voter photo ID laws are necessary to prevent voter fraud and ensure the integrity of elections, reality tells a different story. Not only do these measures disproportionately impact Black, Native, elderly, and...

www.lwv.org

This is partially because photo IDs aren’t as common as many people assume: 18% of all citizens over the age of 65, 16% of Latino voters, 25% of Black voters, and 15% of low-income Americans lack acceptable photo ID. Elderly and low-income voters may not have the availability, financial resources, or mobility to obtain the necessary identification, and rural voters may face significant barriers to obtaining the necessary documentation due to their geographic isolation. Further, many rural and Native Americans born at home or on reservations and tribal lands lack the mandated paperwork needed to obtain a government-issued ID that fits the legal requirements to vote.

Also, even with nearly half the country voting early, Election Day lines are often hours long. Constraining it to simply one day would massively exacerbate that problem and put a lot of people off voting altogether.

Not saying it has been or is an issue. But would be a very easy way to stop and rhetoric about stolen elections etc.

Well they would agree with the 1 day on paper.

But not the every community has one within 3 miles apart. Not that. Not that at all. Or more importantly, one voting place "per some capita" that makes sense.

This is assuming those cry-arsing about stolen elections give a flip about the truth.

People also don't understand, in addition to the points made above, I sign upon entering. No, I don't show my ID. But I sign next to my name, and my signature is on file. Right there.
