#1 Now to get id of the mail-in elections, and go back to "be there on election day" as the standard, with anything else treated as an exception that needs to be applied for, except perhaps limited location early voting no more than 2 weeks prior..

#3 Add in a requirement to re-register, in person, with proof of citizenship every 4 years and we might have a republic again...

#4 My prediction, this will somehow be found to be.... discriminatory.

#5 ..with anything else treated as an exception that needs to be applied for..

You mean like the Obama gang not bothering to make sure the troops overseas and out of state get their ballots in time?

#6 Add ID, rerregistration and ten years of forced labor in Alaska tpo anyone cheating with his own vote like trying to vote twice. Thirty years in case it is votes of other people he is trying to tamper with.

And make "get out the vote" initiatives illegal. It is an open door for fraud and anyway people who need someone knowcks at their door in order to go to vote aren't interested enough by the faet of thge country to cast sensible ballots. Let them sip beers and watch sports.

#7 With out paper ballots it is hard to be a faithful Democrat, recently....

Democrats have apparently been uniquely blessed by Providence in being able to find just that right amount of extra uncounted ballots to upend a close race in their direction amazing isnt it? And interestingly enough, they always find them in the most innocent and miraculous of places, like union boss car trunks and Democrat operative closets.

We remember what helped Al Franken become a U.S. Senator from Minnesota.... Why it was paper ballots found where ?

#8 Forgot it. In France try just try to add ballots who have been out of the chain of custody. You are going to be laughed out of court quicker faster than you can run. That is if the judge doesn't cgharge you with contempt of court.

#9 I didn't know they actually had elections in Maryland. The results never seem to vary much.

#10 Chain of custody for ballots? Why, that's unAmerican.

#11 "Add in a requirement to re-register, in person, with proof of citizenship every 4 years and we might have a republic again..."

If that means Tea Partier and Canadian citizen Ted Cruz can't vote for himself, I'm all for it.

#13 Actually, Pappy, I'm not sorry it doesn't have a say.

Do us a favor and go take a long walk on a short pier, jerkoff.

#14 Ted Cruz is an American citizen. He may have been born in Canada, but his mother was an American citizen.

Also, he has announced he will renounce his Canadian citizenship.

One obnoxious comment per troll, per day. For Canadian trolls, it's 0.950207 obnoxious comment.

You've more than exceeded your limit.

#18 I get mail-in ballots for people who haven't lived at the house for years, despite marking them with, "Return to sender, no longer at this residence."

Only to receive another ballot two years later.
