Imo, being present in the jurisdiction, subject to the jurisdiction’s laws, and only voting once and in and one jurisdiction per election, with some form of proof of residence issued by the jurisdiction, should be all that’s required.
Step 0: Show your finger at the door to the polls.
Step 1: Bring a letter to yourself from state or town government, register to vote with your town, have a current driver’s license, or something equivalent, and receive a ballot.
Optional Step 1: Swear an affidavit before the registrat of voters that you are who you say you are and live where you say you live, no ID required; hold the ballot provisionally for a period in case someone wishes to challenge it for cause. This is currently the law in my state. If local government cannot take a citizen at their unchallenged, sworn oath, then everything falls apart.
Step 2: Vote.
Step 3: Dip your pointer finger in temporary die, also known as election ink.
Optional Steps 0-3: Preregister to vote with proof of residence only to be able to receive an official, serialized ballot mailed to your residence. Register checks serial number to make sure you don’t vote twice.
Done.
Just let people vote. Who cares about their citizenship if they reside in the jurisdiction and are subject to its laws, as long as they can’t vote twice?
I’m also in favor of lowering the voting age to sixteen. Kids can be very smart. No reason they can’t start shaping their future if they want.
Won’t do shit.
God damnit.
Every browser I switched to since Firefox has been a good user experience, and then I find out some horrible bullshit.
Is there any safe browser that isn’t run by hateful assholes?
28 USC Sec. 566
(a)It is the primary role and mission of the United States Marshals Service to provide for the security and to obey, execute, and enforce all orders of the United States District Courts, the United States Courts of Appeals, the Court of International Trade, and the United States Tax Court, as provided by law.
(b) The United States marshal of each district is the marshal of the district court and of the court of appeals when sitting in that district, and of the Court of International Trade holding sessions in that district, and may, in the discretion of the respective courts, be required to attend any session of court.
©Except as otherwise provided by law or Rule of Procedure, the United States Marshals Service shall execute all lawful writs, process, and orders issued under the authority of the United States, and shall command all necessary assistance to execute its duties.
This codified the common law in the US.
The Court’s order to its district marshal is superior to any DoJ order. If the marshal won’t act, the Court can conpel them into court and hold them in contempt.
Courts (and marshals) can also deputize people to execute their orders. They can also hold others in contempt who contribute to orders not being followed…they can start seizing and freezing assets of Trump’s helpers; they can award money damages as sanctions, they can disbar attorneys. There’s a lot they can do. I hope the courts start playing hard ball with these lawless fucks.
Who tf is massacring kids? This is your fantasy, not reality. Kids die in wars. Nobody is targeting kids.
Hamas is putting kids in harm’s way, and their disgusting culture of “proud martyrdom.”
Hamas doesn’t get to dictate how the war it started gets faught because the news makes you so sad.
Yes, because the West knows that this is a proxy war between America and Iran, and Israel’s defensive posture as to Iran is the only thing stopping world war three. That’s real. Anyone denying this simply doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Unfortunately, like 90% of America doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
Never heard it called the birch bitch.
