The Democrats Just Had a Big Voting Rights Win

[Into the Night]

sophomorics. most of us learn in elementary how our democratic republic functions

There is no such thing as a 'democratic republic'. Your propaganda center (aka elementary school) has properly programmed you.
A democracy is government by popular vote. There is no constitution and no representatives.
A republic is government by constitution. It defines how elections are conducted and what representatives there are and their various powers and authorities are.

I realize you choose these boring low hanging fruits because they challenge you - but they bore be. you bore me

You are not eating fruit. You are eating nuts.

Apparently 16 and 17 years old teens are just children when it comes to the age of consent in places like Florida. However the Dems are quite happy to allow them to vote, Sturgeon tried the same shit in Scotland.

For Federal elections there should be one set of rules decided by non-partisan bodies like the Electoral Commission.

Nope. The election procedure for every federal officer is defined in the Constitution. Any additional 'rule making' covering federal elections are strictly controlled by that same Constitution.

Hello gemini104104,

Actually, that would be society, U.S. Constitutional law and Democracy had a big win against the enemy from within. Yet obviously Trumptards with their un-American tunnel vision focusing on the destructive and seditious act of anti-American repukes' efforts to destroy voting rights of society and Democracy from within and anything else of a civilized nature failed to pay attention that their devotion to repuke sewer slime is not a guaranteed win from hell. There is more than one way to get around the filibustering and seditious repuke war on voting rights and Democracy.


For most Democrats, last week was downright depressing. It started with President Biden's impassioned plea to Senators to end the filibuster in order to pass two desperately-needed election protection bills. It ended with Senator Kyrsten Sinema killing that idea in the cradle.

For those who see the threat of a total meltdown of American democracy as very real and very near, it was a body blow. Ranging from deeply frustrated to downright enraged, many assumed that all hope was lost.

They were wrong.

Yes, losing those bills hurts. And Democrats shouldn't give up on the federal level: The torrent of Republican laws to suppress votes and subvert elections remains a clear and present danger to American democracy, and perhaps to our the ability to hold together the country itself. But for those who were paying attention, there was actually a significantly more hopeful development last week."

That is good news. Thanks for posting.

Democrats really need to up the game in getting the message out.

Old enough to vote, old enough to fight.

Yea those evil republicans, demand only citizens vote, prove you are the registered voter, expect absentee votes be submitted and counted by the deadline. How awful to expect honest and fair elections!

Try as a 16 or 17 year-old to enter into a contract to buy say, a car. You can't do it anywhere in the US. The dealer won't do it because you are not at the age of majority (an adult and legally responsible for the contract).

In some states, like Arizona, there is a dual registration system. You can register to vote under more lax federal standards to only vote in a federal election, or you can register to vote under the state standard, requiring more proof of citizenship and who you are, than the federal standard as it exists requires. HR 1 and 3 remove virtually all of that when someone registers to vote.

If anyone from anywhere can vote in our elections, which is where HR 1 and 3 go, then we are no longer a nation.

This is a win? Ohio will redistrict. Done.

[Blackwater Lunchbreak]

The far left Democrat Socialist have done more to kill democracy in our Constitutional Republic than any other lunatic fringe in America.

No voter ID, importation of tens of millions of illegals (non-citizens) sanctuary cities and then allowing these non-American citizens to vote.

History will remember this...especially in November of this year.

their naked Elitism is the tell that they don't repect the masses. they really think parents should have no say.

THEY'RE the reactionaries.
