A controversial bill to allow federal immigration officers at voting locations this year died Friday without a hearing.
not even a hearing.
Ricardo Reyes, the executive director of VetsForward, told ABC15 the measure was a clear attempt at voter intimidation. “It brought back, you know, memories of being in history class and learning about the KKK being at the polls when Black people first started to vote,” he said.
no kidding.
Wow, what is the state government there? They had an ungerrymander ballot intitiative some like 10 years back or something, but I’ve heard it’s still biased in favor of republicans, both by design and just naturally all democratic districts are naturally packed in big cities and the republicans control seemingly all of the countryside nationwide.
But this is so blatant, it’s hard to believe anyone would have the gall to propose such a thing, you have a bill to invite armed federal agents to oversee the vote count a sovereign state is conducting? I don’t think that would even be constitutional even if their legislature did pass it. States run elections, and putting armed fed agents at polls would interfere with the ability to vote.
It’s obviously not constitutional but with some of the apeshit stuff that has been getting pass or sign as “executive orders”, someone figured why not add more garbage on the trash pile
