Older women/elderly trend towards the GOP. I wonder how many of them have all their documents? How many of them live in rural areas where they don’t have internet and the nearest vital records office is 2 hours away?

When my FIL died my MIL needed copies of all her marriage certificate and such for Social Security and we dug through everything and couldn't find it. And then she couldn't remember which county or city they had gotten their license in, but we had to pay fees just for the various jurisdictions to look to see if they had it, then to get a copy. Fortunately Social security appeals took some other documentation we had because the whole process took months and months and hundreds of dollars.

States have an office of vital records.

Trust me we tried the state. They referred us back to the county office. It's very state dependent.

Maybe you should have tried this index:
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/w2w/index.htm

Surprising that Social Security required her marriage certificate again. I had to use mine to change my name on Social Security. But, I still have it.

We tried everything, we even got a lawyer. We eventually got someone in appeals who took her secondary evidence.

Older people don't have all their documents in order, they can't remember what counties they got married in or were born in and it makes things messy.

That is an erroneous generalization. I've had a lot of experience with older people--they may not remember what they had for lunch, but they remember important life events.
But, would you have someone who cannot remember where she got married voting?

My MIL has since died but when this went down she was just 65. She just couldn't remember if the courthouse she went to 45 years ago was a city courthouse or state courthouse and the location she had gone to didn't exist anymore. She could remember the church they got married in and we had googled extensively. And when we did find it getting the documents off microfiche cost hundreds and took months. The county had moved it's records around.

It was also hard to.talk about this stuff at the time because she was distressed about her husband's death.

My own mom had some trouble getting a copy of her birth certificate in her 20s because she didn't know she was born one city over from where she grew up. The hospital had a pipe burst and the maternity ward was closed. No one had bothered to tell her until they couldn't find it.

Point is that this stuff can take months to fix and cost a lot of money.

Remarkable that both of your parents had such problems knowing information about their lives. Sad. Sad that there were no other family members who might have known.
My parents eloped and I know the town where they married. I guess they talked about their lives more than your family did.

Remarkable that you think this is a convincing point in favor of the legislation. Are you TRYING to foment opposition to it?

Remarkable that you think people cannot secure the documents they need. Go look at the link posted above. There are ways to get them. And, if it is not possible to get them through vital records, then you are going to have problems collecting Social Security. You will have to secure other documentation--and there are ways to do it.

This is not that hard.

It’s harder for some than others, and no effort us being made to hide it. Are you aware Hegseth has posted remarks against women bring allowed to vote? What impact do you think those public postings have on the idea that the administration us trying to disenfranchise women?

There are counties who still haven't digitized records. Again this is primarily going to impact older people.

Getting rid of vote by mail disenfranchises servicemembers as well.

If an older person is getting Social Security, there is very likely no problem with documentation. It is required to prove before you can get Medicare and collect benefits.

And, they are not trying to get rid of absentee ballots for those who NEED it. They are trying to get rid of blanket mail in voting. That has been repeatedly made clear.

Military have always been able to vote absentee and will continue to be able to do so.

When a sitting member of the cabinet starts amplifying videos against service members and the elderly voting, I will believe that is who is being targeted. Trump’s cabinet says they don’t want women to vote: why shouldn’t i believe them?

If you know that to be true, then please cite the quote. FWIW. google is your friend. It is not true.

Cornyn admits it disenfranchises women:

“Cornyn said the Senate could address these potentially unconstitutional issues in the bill targeting married women, among other voters, by adding an amendment to modify the documentation requirements, to add exceptions to enforcement provisions, or to rewrite parts of the bill before voting on it.”

NP but I want down a rabbit hole on Doug Wilson, the leader of Hegseth's church after Hegseth clearly endorsed the anti 19th amendment video. Yes, highly disturbing. Hegseth has invited Wilson to lead prayer meetings at the Pentagon! Doug Wilson also set up shop to have his church at the Heritage Foundation, a couple blocks from the Capitol building, where Hegseth attends, and Wilson cam get closer access to federal workers and people in power.

So gross!

Getting rid of vote by mail disenfranchises servicemembers as well.

When a sitting member of the cabinet starts amplifying videos against service members and the elderly voting, I will believe that is who is being targeted. Trump’s cabinet says they don’t want women to vote: why shouldn’t i believe them?

If you know that to be true, then please cite the quote. FWIW. google is your friend. It is not true.

Here you go:

https://apnews.com/article/women-hegseth-defense-secretary-religion-d962f472910fb47a0c66cd37b01f550d

From the Secretary’s official X account.

LOL! That is not an endorsement of women not voting.

That is precisely what it is.

But I’ll indulge you: what do you think it is when the Secretary reposts seven minutes of people saying women shouldn’t have the right to vote with the phase “all of Christ for all of Life”? Do you think he doesn’t agree with the video he posted?

Cornyn was just responding to what Durbin claimed. You are using Durbin as the "expert."

Watch the video before posting and making yourself look even more foolish.

Older women/elderly trend towards the GOP. I wonder how many of them have all their documents? How many of them live in rural areas where they don’t have internet and the nearest vital records office is 2 hours away?

When my FIL died my MIL needed copies of all her marriage certificate and such for Social Security and we dug through everything and couldn't find it. And then she couldn't remember which county or city they had gotten their license in, but we had to pay fees just for the various jurisdictions to look to see if they had it, then to get a copy. Fortunately Social security appeals took some other documentation we had because the whole process took months and months and hundreds of dollars.

States have an office of vital records.

Trust me we tried the state. They referred us back to the county office. It's very state dependent.

Maybe you should have tried this index:
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/w2w/index.htm

Surprising that Social Security required her marriage certificate again. I had to use mine to change my name on Social Security. But, I still have it.

We tried everything, we even got a lawyer. We eventually got someone in appeals who took her secondary evidence.

Older people don't have all their documents in order, they can't remember what counties they got married in or were born in and it makes things messy.

That is an erroneous generalization. I've had a lot of experience with older people--they may not remember what they had for lunch, but they remember important life events.
But, would you have someone who cannot remember where she got married voting?

My MIL has since died but when this went down she was just 65. She just couldn't remember if the courthouse she went to 45 years ago was a city courthouse or state courthouse and the location she had gone to didn't exist anymore. She could remember the church they got married in and we had googled extensively. And when we did find it getting the documents off microfiche cost hundreds and took months. The county had moved it's records around.

It was also hard to.talk about this stuff at the time because she was distressed about her husband's death.

My own mom had some trouble getting a copy of her birth certificate in her 20s because she didn't know she was born one city over from where she grew up. The hospital had a pipe burst and the maternity ward was closed. No one had bothered to tell her until they couldn't find it.

Point is that this stuff can take months to fix and cost a lot of money.

Remarkable that both of your parents had such problems knowing information about their lives. Sad. Sad that there were no other family members who might have known.
My parents eloped and I know the town where they married. I guess they talked about their lives more than your family did.

Remarkable that you think this is a convincing point in favor of the legislation. Are you TRYING to foment opposition to it?

Remarkable that you think people cannot secure the documents they need. Go look at the link posted above. There are ways to get them. And, if it is not possible to get them through vital records, then you are going to have problems collecting Social Security. You will have to secure other documentation--and there are ways to do it.

This is not that hard.

If an older person is getting Social Security, there is very likely no problem with documentation. It is required to prove before you can get Medicare and collect benefits.

And, they are not trying to get rid of absentee ballots for those who NEED it. They are trying to get rid of blanket mail in voting. That has been repeatedly made clear.

Military have always been able to vote absentee and will continue to be able to do so.

But the GOP has been banging on about fraud in Medicare for years. So now you are arguing that anyone who has Medicare is definitely a U.S. citizen??

The GOP is right, there is fraud in Medicare. But it isn't the little guy, it is the middlemen, like Rick Scott, who rip the US off by billions.

Nope. Never said that. It is not true. Many immigrants can legally get Medicare. That does not make them citizens.

. Which is precisely why the GOP should NOT want the SAVE Act to pass — older people tend to vote Republican, so why are they trying to disenfranchise them?

Is that a dig? I’m not the PP, but my family talked about theri lives all the time — that said, I cannot tell you where exactly they got married. I have an idea, but I don’t not know precisely.

LOL! Not true. Most are collecting Social Security. You have to have birth certificate for that--also if you changed your name, you needed marriage certificate. That is why all of this is so comical.

Have you visited a doctor? Do you know what you have to show for Medicare coverage? You need your Medicare card and a picture ID.

As Kamala says: Did you just fall out of a coconut tree?
