The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out, but there are no criminal penalties if they don’t. From California to New York, DEMOCRATS are already pushing to allow noncitizens to vote in local elections. They see this as their road map to a future permanent majority
HR 1’s bag of tricks also includes banning state voter ID requirements. Anyone can show up on Election Day to vote, registered or not, and simply sign a statement that they’re a legal voter. HR 1 is being sold as a reform to make voting easier. In truth, it makes cheating easier.
HR 1 compels states to send out absentee or mail-in ballots universally, favoring DEMOCRATS eager to use this method (guess why). It also forces states to count ballots that arrive by mail as late as 10 days after the election. Say goodbye to election night results.
HR 1 also legalizes paid ballot harvesting, a practice many states are struggling to stop. A political organization pays a worker to walk through housing projects and neighborhoods, knock on doors, offer to help residents fill out the ballots they’ve received in the mail, and then submit the piles of completed ballots. It’s a recipe for fraud.
It’s also unconstitutional.
The authors of the Constitution worried that Congress would try to seize control of presidential selection using dirty tricks like those in HR 1.
