[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Voting for citizens should be as easy and convenient as possible.  Everyone should be granted time off from work to vote. I believe voting days should be national holidays.  It's also more important to vote in local elections because it impacts you more.   Polling places should be secure and near your home.

Last year polling places were closed in minority communities where constituents have no access to transportation.  Long lines to vote discourage people who are poor from voting because they can't afford to spend so much time away from work.

I believe elections should be secure and ID should be required.  Ids shouldn't have so many regulatory hurdles to to get.  A free id card should be given to every citizen of a state upon reaching 18.  A driver's license is different.  I think your constitutional right to vote shouldn't be taken away for petty offenses.  There are some offenses against humanity and the state that are worthy of losing your right to vote.

Voting is very important and should be protected.  This county has a history of bombing polling places to prevent minorities from voting.  There has also been disenfranchisement of women.

:roll: Democrats, get better supporters. Really. You’re jealous of us for having more committed voters. And we’re tired of replacements telling us how our country’s getting run. If you want to win, Democrats, then go get your own paramilitaries.

Which side am I going to be on. I’m with the Founders. If you can make it to vote, you don’t count for 3/5 anymore. You’re welcome.[/quote]

Democrats support Dem House members by more than 40 million voters.
Democrats support Dem Senate members by more than 41 million voters.
Democrats support the Preisdent by more than 8 million voters.

What is the point you are trying to make, because I don't think it is the one you think it is.[/quote]
