CDZ Voter Fraud and Voter Suppression

[Rye Catcher]

There is a lot of noise as to Voter Fraud, and little discussion on Voter Suppression. The question is, why has AG Barr asked US Attorney's in the several states to investigate the former (fraud) and not the latter (suppression)?

In support of this question, I will present several links on Voter Suppression:

Voter suppression, then and now

From poll taxes and literacy tests to strict voter ID laws and consolidating polling places.

you obviously arent up to date on the current issues,,,

voter fraud is the least concern in all this,,,,

but you go ahead and focus on fraud, just dont get mad when trump is declared the winner,,,

 

[sartre play]

As Trump questions voter fraud but only in states he lost, but none in states he won. Maybe we should be looking at some of those states, & maybe some senate/congress votes also. if there is fraud its gotta be every where.

Voter suppression is how Republicans have maintained their minority rule – consequently you’ll hear nothing from conservatives about that suppression which works to their partisan advantage.

However, it’s an article of religious faith among Republicans that when they lose an election, it’s due to the myth of ‘voter fraud,’ when in fact it’s because the voters have rejected the Republican candidate.

Maybe we should....What if we find that he won by even wider margins?

A student ID will be sufficient; most can be purchased seven days a week in a variety of stores and won't be turned away for wearing a BLM T shirt.

Because no one has yet.

I'm a registered Democrat and I do not oppose voter ID's. What is a legal ID, and do all states require the same legal ID. ID's are not foolproof, they can be counterfeit.

I support LIVE SCAN, do you?

This is only an opinion ^^^, and not one which is original or ever supported by probative evidence. It is also not focused on the OP's question.

But it's okay when you do it!

When I offer an opinion, such as the one in the OP, I provide links. When it is solely my opinion, I support it with expository essays supported by books I've read, magazines (Time, The Economist) and from listening to NPR and watching PBS.

You have to prove who you are when you register showing an ID when voting it's for ID fraud not voter fraud.

Opinion. Not backed up with facts. You state it's an article of faith among Republicans, but offer no facts.

It's merely your own bigotry against Republicans, and is immediately dismissible as such.

When it comes to voter suppression and disenfranchisement -- NOBODY beats the Dem party.. A party that loads their primaries with SUPER DELEGATES?? Each cancelling the votes of about 70,000 REAL democrats? The party that allows Super Rich spoiled narcissists into their primary debates after the elections have begun to DISPLACE serious, well liked candidates with their monied "buy-ins"??

The party that worked at the DNC level to screw and suppress their their progressive candidate in 2016?

The Dem party suppresses and disenfranchises their own -- and THEN complains about the other party? Get real...

No reason why you can't vote without a wallet or purse.. Have the registrars load ID photos and signatures that get delivered to polling places by hand or secure communications link on election day.. Poll worker LOOKS at you, checks your signature -- asks for your current address.. It's that's damn simple.

Have a truck or two to issue new voter ID cards. Only has to be done every 10 years or so,...
