Save act passes the house

Trump wants voters to prove citizenship. Arizona tried that and bungled it.​


For 30 years, no one questioned Danny Dobosz’s citizenship when the lifelong Republican cast his ballot.

So when a letter arrived from a local election official last month asking him to send back a copy of his birth certificate to prove he was an American citizen who was eligible to vote, he tossed it in the trash at his home in Yuma, Arizona. Dobosz, an ardent supporter of President Donald Trump who was born in New Mexico, said he had “no real ambition” to verify his legal status to anyone — even if his ability to vote is jeopardized.

“It’s their duty to prove I’m not,” said the 48-year-old owner of a water-softening business.

“I know I’m a citizen. I pay my taxes,” he said. “Obviously we’re citizens — it’s on their end to fix it, not our end.”

If Dobosz and about 200,000 other Arizona voters don’t provide citizenship documentation, they will not get to vote in next year’s race for governor. State officials last year discovered they had failed to keep records confirming whether about 4 percent of the state’s 4.4 million registered voters were citizens, and they’ve been hustling to fix the problem ever since. They have set off on a scramble that has prompted incredulity, hostility and suspicion from longtime voters like Dobosz who are now learning they are among those caught in the state-caused voter registration blunder.

Trump and Republicans, who have claimed without proof that large numbers of noncitizens are illegally casting ballots, are pushing for similar policies nationally. It is already illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections, and the glitches with Arizona’s registration system illustrate the risks of enacting policies that may keep eligible voters from participating in the democratic process.

There's a time and place to fight city hall, but this isn't it. Provide the proof. It's not difficult, and fighting the rule gains you nothing.

And yet there is no problem.
There's a HUGE problem that must be addressed. I'm not surprised that you are denying it since you deny everything else.

Democrats cheat like mthrfckrs and they keep getting better and better, successfully stealing the 2020 elections. We can't have that happen again. We need the SAVE Act and lots of other safeguards lest the DNC fucks up our republic beyond repair.

There already are laws protecting election integrity.
Existing legislation aimed at protecting election integrity is woefully inadequate. We need a complete overhaul and we need it now.

Why make it harder? And why worry if you've won?
Because more elections will follow, and we don't want Democrat election-stealing to become the norm.
 
A lot of good men and women have died, in part, to ensure fair elections.

If someone is too lazy to obtain proof of citizenship, they have voided their right to vote.

We all know why the far left loons do not want proof of citizenship.

How do one deny something that doesn't exist? I have posted evidence that noncitizens voting is not a problem.
