Is automatic voter registration Unconstitutional?

[Harpy Eagle]

From our former POTUS...

I don't have a problem with registering US citizens.

Registering illegals should be a crime, and its not, its what the dems are doing.

Do you have a link to the Dems in PA registering illegals?

Thanks in advance.

 

[Blues Man]

I don't know if it is unconstitutional but then again the right to vote exists for all American citizens so the idea that you have to register might be unconstitutional.

The illegals are not supposed to see the voter registration screen, but if they answer "yes" to the citizenship question they get registered.

only if they have provided proof they are citizens, just like the rest of us have to do

It should be left to the public to register to vote or not.

Of course the dems say that there is a "opt-out" but it should not be necessary.....The .gov, in no way should be allowed to automatically register citizens to vote.

I can just see extra ballots being sent to the same address to be harvested now.

Like I trust the democrats behind the counter. I don't. I know migrants will be registered by the DMV.

They join 24 other states that do this.

From our former POTUS...

There shouldn't be "voter registration" in the United States.

Bear with me here...

Citizen data should be integrated between:

• State Department of Vital Statistics (births, deaths, etc.)
• Federal Department of State (Naturalizations)
• State and Federal Courts (disenfranchizement due to felony conviction or determination of mental incompetance)
• State Departments of State (restoration of franchise after felony removal)

We, as a government responsibility, should already know who are citizens and their voter eligibility.

The only need should be address changes.

[Dekster]

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.

The right of citizens of the United States, who are eighteen years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of age.

So which of these 3 Constitutional provisions regarding voting is violated by automatic voter registration? The US Constitution otherwise leaves it up to the states.

I bet no one would argue for the government automatically giving everyone a CCW permit.

Registering illegals should be a crime, and its not, its what the dems are doing.

It's Human-trafficking.

HUMAN-TRAFFICKING
Human trafficking, also known as trafficking in persons, is a crime that involves compelling or coercing a person to provide labor or services (VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS), or to engage in commercial sex acts. The coercion can be subtle or overt, physical or psychological. Exploitation of a minor for commercial sex is human trafficking, regardless of whether any form of force, fraud, or coercion was used.

Victim-Survivors​

There is no single profile of a trafficking victim. Victims of human trafficking can be anyone—regardless of race, color, national origin, disability, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic status, education level, or citizenship status. But as is the case in many crimes of exploitation and abuse, human traffickers often prey upon members of marginalized communities and other vulnerable individuals, including children in the child welfare system or children who have been involved in the juvenile justice system; runaway and homeless youth; unaccompanied children; persons who do not have lawful immigration status in the United States; Black people and other people of color; American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, Pacific Islanders, and other indigenous peoples of North America; Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex (LGBTQI+) individuals; migrant laborers; persons with disabilities; and individuals with substance use disorder.

Vulnerabilities​

Although there is no defining characteristic that all human trafficking victims share, traffickers around the world frequently prey on individuals whose vulnerabilities, including poverty, limited English proficiency, or lack of lawful immigration status, are exacerbated by lack of stable, safe housing, and limited economic and educational opportunities. Trafficking victims are deceived by false promises of love, a good job, or a stable life and are lured or forced into situations where they are made to work under deplorable conditions with little or no pay. In the United States, trafficking victims can be American or foreign citizens.

Locations​

Victims can be found in legal and illegal labor industries, including child care, elder care, the drug trade, massage parlors, nail and hair salons, restaurants, hotels, factories, and farms. In some cases, victims are hidden behind doors in domestic servitude in a home. Others are in plain view, interact with people on a daily basis, and are forced to work under extreme circumstances in exotic dance clubs, factories, or restaurants. Victims can be exploited for commercial sex in numerous contexts, including on the street, in illicit massage parlors, cantinas, brothels, or through escort services and online advertising. Trafficking situations can be found across the United States.

Traffickers​

Just as there is no one type of trafficking victim, perpetrators of this crime also vary. Traffickers can be foreign nationals or U.S. citizens, family members, partners, acquaintances, and strangers. They can act alone or as part of an organized criminal enterprise. People often incorrectly assume that all traffickers are males; however, the United States has prosecuted cases against women traffickers. Traffickers can be pimps, gang members, diplomats, business owners, labor brokers, and farm, factory, and company owners.

The .gov should not have any say on a constitutional right.

LOL....Stepped right on that one didn't ya?

It's OK.

Is that not basically what these 25 states (add in PA) are doing by making it automatic?

Or was I making that very point in a more subtle way?
