+1 Too easy to vote twice in this country.


No, it's not and few people do it. The most recent examples have trended that these are GOP voters.


Actually, both sides do it.


Please provide your cites for the both sides claim. I have done so for GOP.

If you opt out, that cedes everything to them. The place where this may become an issue is in re: med schools and limits on teaching reproductive health.

I lived in my college town 11 months out of the year. I was a resident, obviously.


For 4 years, obviously. I would not want you impacting my town.

SO people who may move not live in a place for some length of time should not vote? I am not military, but I move every 5-7 years. I don't get to vote locally for the time I live there?

In light of this and increased restrictions on abortions, should out of state parents and students opt out of colleges in such states?


Look, Republicans are all about cheating. If you're not cheating, they're not winning. Between gerrymandering and sh-- like this . . . they'd win far less elections without it.

LOTS of kids vote in the state where they live during college. It's more convenient. The states laws/enforcement directly affect them for those 4 years (this is no different that people who move in/out of a state for any number of reasons). So there is NO reason to do this other than to preserve an advantage for Republicans.

You know this. I know this. We all know this. Anyone saying otherwise is a liar.

This is no different than people who move in and out of state for jobs, families, etc. None. Zero. You wouldn't restrict those. You shouldn't restrict college students, whose lives are directly impacted by the states they are living in for at least 4 years.

It is not. If you're going to spew these blatant lies, you'd best proffer a cite in support of it. Otherwise, you're just talking out of your a$$. Because there are studies (one noted already) that directly contradict you.

I always voted where I went to school, because that is where I lived and it was totally fine and legal. The only thing that has changed in the last 30 years is the GOP radicalism.

Seriously. And those of us who got jobs over breaks had to file taxes just like anyone else.

I don't get why this is hard to understand. Lots of people never move back in with their parents after leaving for college. Voting where you live is the norm, even if your parents are helping you pay the bills.

But the GOP is also making it harder to vote absentee, so....

Please provide receipts for this statement, because there were dozens of articles from PA, FL and NC about GOP voters doing it. Where are the Dem voters doing it?
