Most women vote Democratic. And most still change their name when they marry. And that’s where the GOP sees an Achilles’ heel.

Republicans don’t want women to vote. They now think they may have a strategy that could prevent them from doing so. House Speaker Mike Johnson and former President Donald Trump were pushing the Safeguard American Eligibility, or SAVE, Act, demanding it be part of must-pass legislation to fund the federal government for another year (the funding runs out at the end of this month, and then the shutdown begins).

It died in the House Wednesday night, but, like a bad penny, you can bet it’ll return.*

Trump, on his failing social media site, ranted Tuesday that Republicans must get “every ounce” of the SAVE Act passed or shut down the government “in any way, shape, or form.” He said it was necessary because Democrats are “registering Illegal Voters by the TENS OF THOUSANDS, as we speak,” adding the vicious lie that “they will be voting in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Trump, Johnson, and J.D. Vance claim that the SAVE Act is necessary to prevent people who aren’t citizens from voting, but they are entirely unable to prove that any meaningful number of noncitizens have ever illegally voted in any American election. After all, it’s a felony for a noncitizen to vote, and few are stupid enough to take that sort of a chance.

Republicans love to point out that occasionally noncitizens end up on the voting rolls of various states. Oregon, for example, just found that 306 noncitizens were on the voting rolls because they were incorrectly added when they renewed their drivers’ licenses; two had voted because they were mailed ballots and didn’t know better. The state has fixed this error.

But Republicans have absolutely no evidence of any election, anywhere in America, at any time in our history that was ever changed by noncitizens voting. Or of any conspiracy to encourage noncitizens to vote.

In other words, their entire argument is bullshit.

This is serious stuff. It's worth your time to read the entire article - especially women. What do you think?
 
From the OP:

The SAVE Act is a proposed federal law, so, first off, it would put a future president (say, Trump) in charge of enforcing it, taking that power away from the states. Millions of voter registrations in any states the president decides are problematic could be removed until those voters “cure” their registrations, and state authorities would have no say in it.

And what will the law require citizens who want to vote do? Lacking a passport or other proof of citizenship with their married names, they must produce both a birth certificate (with the seal of the state where it was issued; no copies allowed) and a current form of identification—both with the exact same name on them. That could instantly disqualify about 90 percent of all married women without passports or other proof that matches their birth certificates or proof of a legal name change.

For women in that situation, they can still register to vote if they can prove that they went to court to change their name when they got married, but most women just start using their new married name without ever going through all those formalities (although a few states recognize marriage as a legal name change).

As a result, as the National Organization for Women details in a report on how Republican voter suppression efforts harm women:
Voter ID laws have a disproportionately negative effect on women. According to the Brennan Center for Justice, one third of all women have citizenship documents that do not identically match their current names primarily because of name changes at marriage. Roughly 90 percent of women who marry adopt their husband’s last name.
That means that roughly 90 percent of married female voters have a different name on their ID than the one on their birth certificate. An estimated 34 percent of women could be turned away from the polls unless they have precisely the right documents.

I’ll say it again: This effort by Republicans to blackmail Democrats into disenfranchising millions of women just in time for a critical election—just like their claim that legal Haitian immigrants are eating white people’s pets—is complete, utter, unmitigated bullshit.

And the press should do a much better job of calling it exactly what it is.

You have never been to Haiti, you have never met a Haitian, nor have you ever eaten with Haitians or smoked weed with Haitians...

You are just a parrot of left wing lies.

Most of the Haitians who have lived here for a while know not to do that stuff. If they just crossed the border with no instructions, no fear of the law, a government funded residence, car, and cellphone, they will behave like Haitians on Haiti. They are not bad people, but to claim they do not eat cats is to lie. They do.

Only the rich Haitians get to eat cat.

Let's take California. Solid red in 1980. In the past 44 years, it has become impenetrably blue. Why is that? People love leftwing government? Hardly. Since 1980, California has become home to two million undocumented residents. California has zero voter ID requirements. Pop quiz: Guess who can stand in for non-existent people still on the voter rolls, no questions asked. If you don't think illegals were used to steal CA elections for Democrats, you're really really stupid. There is NOTHING to keep it from happening.

So why are you commies fighting tooth and nail to prevent a proof of citizenship requirement for federal elections. The only reason I can see is you want more noncitizens voting. That can't happen if proof of citizenship is required to register.

Pure commie propaganda, women only need their birth certificate and marriage certificate. ALL FUCKING FIXED. BTW. how many of these really stupid women, that can't figure out how to legally register, have a current passport?

How the Republican War on Women Extends to Voting Rights

You mean it doesn't extend to supplanting them with men who call themselves women merely because they try to dress and look more like females? It doesn't extend to these men shoving them out of their own sports? And it doesn't extend to respecting their rights and privacy not to be lewdly gawked at by men in the changing rooms, showers and locker rooms?
 
Women put Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden in the White House. Enough said.
 
You have to drink a LOT of Kool-Aid to get to this point.

True.

And Federal law already prohibits noncitizens from voting.

This meritless, bad faith legislation is nothing but partisan political theater – an effort by Republicans to frighten and enflame their racist base driving them to the polls.

I have a thread up on the Fake Abortion Issue that not one of you Trump haters has been able to refute. Care to give it a try Lakhota? The GOP "War on Women" is pure gaslighting.

Christian Republicans are the only ones who value women. They want them in supportive married relationships surrounded by children who take care of them in old age. Leftwingers want women unmarried poor childless wards of the state.

What part of the save act affects women voting?

(Edit)

I see the part about married names. That’s just silly, it isnt going to do that.

Also, an article that is laden with profanity calls into question the legitimacy of their “journalism”. It sounds more like a partisan rant..which is exactly what it is.
