and fuck if i would give government power over the method of choosing

sometimes you need the voices that are clueless and stupid sounding to 90% of the people

it gets messy when individual uniquity gets fucky withy

by all means id like it if people that arent literally retarded are the only ones that can vote

but implementing that defeats the purpose

We do need a basic voting registration law just to prevent vote rigging

correct

Better than what exists now

One day she might be able to vote

also, why would we think the 'learned' people whatever that means, represent what would be good for most people

it just promotes tampering and excluding people from learning

Because education used to be part and parcel with moral standards

i still am amazed by how for US elections you just show up and vote, no ID whatsoever required

USED to be

and then its just might as well be a totalitarian state with like 10 people calling shit

@Sectator Pragmaticam Lex yea it's stupid

is there *any* other country on earth that's this naive about voting?

You show up and vote as many times as you want

in the UK we get sent a paper

one of the things though is that because they have a registration, they also know who you voted for

and that can be a little sketchy

even in backwater destitute south american pissholes we gotta show ID to vote

exactly why the US doesnt want gun registry

ah that would be different then yes

if you just show proof of ID

rather than government sending out a thing directly to people each time

works for me

unless it's done exceptionally poorly, voter ID only shows if you voted or not

but how will i win my district if i dont have my 500ghosts voting for me?

Also forcing people to need ids to exercise a right outlined in the constitution is the problem

ghosts have a voice too!

@MrDrk666 thats irrelevent

the purpose of IDs is to prevent dead people and illegals from voting

the people who the constitiution doesnt apply to

and if they 'are allowed to vote', then it votes AGAINST someone else

it infringes on the rights of official people to be heard properly

at least in argentina, if you put *anything* other than the slip from the party you're voting for in the ballot, that vote is null

so its the opposit of how youre looking at it

@Boop / 브파 / C'thUwU i know i was going to add also the hypocrisy between the right to vote and the 2nd amendment

Uninfringed to no voter ids.......
