Make election day a nationalized paid holiday if you really give a shit about Americans heading out to the polls.
-
Multiple days to cover people in emergency situations. One day would probably suffice when universal vote-by-mail starting at least a month ahead is in place.
-
Mail-in and early voting always results in bigger turnouts. It also tends to result in more progressive votes, so that's why conservatives try to reduce or restrict it. Imagine a country where a core right is the ability to vote for representation, and yet those in office try to make it harder to do so they can stay in power.
-
I mean we just vote on Sundays it's a pretty simple fix.
-
Jared Golden, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Henry Cuellar, and Ed Case
-
"Democrats" is enough. Stop voting for that party.
-
-
Funny how the Democratic party rails against Trump but when it comes time to voting, there's always a rotating cast of Dems willing to give him enough votes to screw the people over. Probably a coincidence, right?
-
Surely just a coincidence that the rotating evil is a different cast of people, despite the members of congress rarely changing.
Maybe if we donate to them and make them ignore the voter base some more, this time they'll stop Trump, and we'll get to kick the football!
-
Primary every taint-licking centrist that supports anything they try to do.

That fucking shit bag Ed Case..
AGAIN
-
Girlfriend and I had an episode in the anger dome for that fucking asshole doing his fucking DINO-ass shit AGAIN.
And for no fucking reason. Maybe he can argue there are secret conservatives in Hawaii for spending, but no one gives a shit about this made-up election-integrity issue. He's just a Fox News grandpa cosplaying as a Democrat and he's probably going to keep getting elected until he dies. All while we also vote for senators that are unreliable, but at least broadly default to having decent politics. Someone with a recognizable name in politics needs to announce a primary like yesterday, just like when Tulsi was taking the mask off.
-
How long before we can get rid of him and Schatz?
-
-
Cool, let's just normalize women not taking their husband's name. Less paperwork all around and no voter roll issues. I'm sure that'll go over great with Republicans as a bonus.
-
Also normalize the children having hyphenated names.
-
It's very few generations before that becomes unwieldy.
-
-
-
Perez and Cuellar? No surprises there.
IIRC Biden and Pelosi personally intervened on Cuellars race when it looked like Cisneros, a progressive, would have a shot.
There are the Democrats the Party has fought hard to get elected.
-
And I wonder why they worked hard on getting conservatives and neoliberals to win instead of progressives... Fucking ponderous.
-
-
This is why people both sides.
When it comes down to voting the Democrats will always vote for fascism because they only really represent their rich doners
-
Donors. Unless they are funded by big kebab
-
unfortunately we're the ones being spit-roasted.
eyyyooooooo

-
We know who they are.

"Republicans, and apparently some Democrats, are still obsessed with limiting noncitizen voting"
Why is this a crazy concept?!
-
Because you didn't quote the whole thing.
Republicans, and apparently some Democrats, are still obsessed with limiting noncitizen voting, which is already illegal and exceedingly rare.
Murder is far more common than noncitizen voting, but I think we can agree that it would be a ridiculous waste of Congressional time to keep passing bills to make murder illegal.
You've also missed the point of the article, and really the point of the SAVE Act itself.
But the bill will no doubt make it more difficult for millions of people to vote, particularly some 69 million married women who have taken their spouse’s name and do not have a birth certificate matching their legal name.
There are not 69 million noncitizens voting in elections. So even if you think we need a new law to crack down on noncitizen voting, the damage it causes far outweighs the problem it solves.
-
Sounds exactly like something a noncitizen would say.
