[bigrebnc1775]

another conspiracy thread?

you people are so sad

Have you read the executive order?

Sec. 2. Membership. (a) The Commission shall be composed of not more than nine members appointed by the President.

In doing so, the Commission shall consider as appropriate:

(i) the number, location, management, operation, and design of polling places;

(ii) the training, recruitment, and number of poll workers;

(iii) voting accessibility for uniformed and overseas voters;

(iv) the efficient management of voter rolls and poll books;

(v) voting machine capacity and technology;

(vi) ballot simplicity and voter education;

(vii) voting accessibility for individuals with disabilities, limited English proficiency, and other special needs;

(viii) management of issuing and processing provisional ballots in the polling place on Election Day;

(ix) the issues presented by the administration of absentee ballot programs;

(x) the adequacy of contingency plans for natural disasters and other emergencies that may disrupt elections; and

(xi) other issues related to the efficient administration of elections that the Co-Chairs agree are necessary and appropriate to the Commission's work.

(b) The Commission shall be advisory in nature and shall submit a final report to the President within 6 months of the date of the Commission's first public meeting.

I DON'T KNOW WEENIE THAT SOUNDS LIKE HE'S TRYING TOO INFLUENCE ELECTION OUTCOMES TOO ME.

 

[bigrebnc1775]

this is a commission to make recommendations to promote efficient elections and terminates 30 days after preparing a report. That's it.

Thank you. The usual flock of irrational paranoid mental cases getting all worked up about whatever they can work their little pea brains into getting worked up about.

1. Unconstitutional

2. Dictatorial

I'd love to hear you explain how creating a commission to make recommendations for efficient elections is either unconstitutional or dictatorial.

Nothing about recommendation

the Commission shall consider as appropriate:

 

[bigrebnc1775]

Fact is elections are in the control of states. Obama is sticking his nose into something that is none of his God Damned business.

Both the states and the federal government have an input into the election process.

In exercising power, the Congress may supplement the state regulations or may substitute its own[viii]. It may impose additional penalties for the violation of the state laws or provide independent sanctions. It has a general supervisory power over the whole subject.

The President is vested with the executive power of the nation. The presidential election and the vital character of its relationship to and effect upon the welfare and safety of the whole people is an important matter and Congress possesses power to pass appropriate legislation to safeguard such an election from the improper use of money to influence the result.

Regulation of Elections - Elections

the Commission shall consider as appropriate:

That commission will not be looking for suggestions.

Executive Order -- Establishment of the Presidential Commission of Election Administration | The White House

Federal elections are run by the individual states. Obama signed an executive order Thurdsay attempting to change the way elections will be held from now on, essentially nationalizing elections.

One more step toward dictatorship.

Crap, this is a commission to make recommendations to promote efficient elections and terminates 30 days after preparing a report. That's it.

If you think the federal government is nationalizing elections, you should be complaining about the federal election laws that have been in effect for nearly 40 years which actually regulate national elections or the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which regulates all elections local, state, or federal.

Mission. (a) The Commission shall identify best practices and otherwise make recommendations to promote the efficient administration of elections in order to ensure that all eligible voters have the opportunity to cast their ballots without undue delay, and to improve the experience of voters facing other obstacles in casting their ballots, such as members of the military, overseas voters, voters with disabilities, and voters with limited English proficiency.

Try again dumbass
the Commission shall consider as appropriate:

You're right, he should be working on a way to stop the cheating GOP House from redistricting instead.

It's not cheating when Democrats did it

What happened to the Brutal Obama Sequester?

Why is obama adding all these new positions when the government is supposed to be making cuts?

Do I have to define "advisory in nature" for you?

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

This is UNCONSTITUTIONAL , Federal elections are left to the States to run by THEIR laws taking into consideration the requirements of the Constitution. No State can be compelled by the federal Government to establish polling places EXCEPT by State law, determine election requirements except by the Constitution etc etc.

This Commission is Illegal. If the States allow this to stand they deserve the loss of their rights.

Another rightwing partisan hack that didn’t read the EO.

Cite in the EO where the states will be compelled to abide the committee’s recommendations.

It's not only constitutional, but the president is right to ask for a study of how elections could be made more efficient. Election efficiency is a common problem and it's more cost effective for the federal government to research it than each state doing it themselves. However, neither Congress nor the states need take action.

The CDC, FBI, DOE, and a number of federal agencies and departments research problems in their area of expertise. In some cases the implementation of a solution must come from the states and other cases from the federal government. Often when you start doing research, you don't know who will be responsible for implementing a solution, because no recommendations have been made.

Did you even bother to read or comprehend the EO, or do you just lie in knee-jerk fashion.

This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

This is merely a commission designed to identify best practices with regard to ensuring all Americans are afforded the right to vote, and it conforms to existing elections law.

Obviously your concern has nothing to do with the president ‘taking over’ elections, rather your concern is that all Americans will have an opportunity to vote, including those whom you perceive to be ‘democratic voters.’

It’s hard to determine which is the greater idiocy, your paranoia or your partisanism.

Actually his "concern" seems to be his irrational fear that he may run out of silly CTBS to whine about.

Evidently but it won't help.

No one makes recommindations when they are also considering what is appropriate

Sec. 3. Mission. (a) The Commission shall identify best practices and otherwise make recommendations to promote the efficient administration of elections in order to ensure that all eligible voters have the opportunity to cast their ballots without undue delay, and to improve the experience of voters facing other obstacles in casting their ballots, such as members of the military, overseas voters, voters with disabilities, and voters with limited English proficiency.

In doing so, the Commission shall consider as appropriate:

You god damn democrats have been screaming for years that nothing was wrong with elections, but now we have this god damn son of a bitch trying to influence elections.

How on earth did you come up with this ridiculous sentence? I'm looking at it in awe at how someone could be so stupid to piece it together this work of logic. I'd wager almost every recommendation I've made or received has happened after consideration as to what is appropriate.

You've made some really stupid posts in the short time I've been on these forums, but wow... just wow.

He’s likely a liberal troll – there’s no other explanation.

No one can actually be that stupid.
