In reply to the discussion: SOME Democrat PLEASE put forth a LEGIT Voter ID bill. [View all]Johonny
(26,581 posts)28. This is a bull-shit issue that solves an imaginary problem
I'm so tired of the GOP narrative being driven by the press about an imaginary problem Democrats then have to "solve" to appease the low information American voter, who, while suffering from real problems, can't seem to get their head out of their ass long enough to face the fact they've been voting for complete piles of human shit their whole lives and thus are in fact to blame for their own problems. At some point, either the voting public stops trying extra hard to solve imaginary problems, or they're going to die of the real problems being created.
Just saying.

Only 12 states require an ID that proves citizenship - and most of those are very limited or no in effect.

Noncitizens can't vote in federal elections, but in some jurisdictions, noncitizens can vote in local elections.

Thank you. As always, Democrats have done or are trying to do what they're accused of not doing or wanting to do.
