Forget about voter ID cards - lets make EVERYONE that votes dip their finger in ink so peers "know" everyone that voted. First sumbitch that isn't a citizen that has ink - gets reported and arrested for voter fraud.

So while I own land and a house, because I am debt free I could not vote... Oh well, guess I would just buy a vacant house to vote...

Really, being debt free is not an excuse to take away your rights.

And just made the military ineligible to vote.

I think he meant in taxes. At least I hope that is what he meant.

This. Voting only 1 time would be a plus though.

How about No. There is a right to vote, just like a right to keep and bear arms. A quick background check to make sure that you are not a "prohibited person" (all conditions that prevent you from owning or possessing a firearm apply to voting). You have to fill out a form similar to a 4473 to vote. A voter I.D. card is then issued which is scanned into the system to ensure that you only vote once.

Absentee votes have a place for the I.D. number to be placed and is scanned in on your ballot. The scanning system does not keep track of your name or any other personal data, other than if the card is valid.

Voter registration in the field can be done and a card issued, but the card only activated after an O.K. from the "instant' background check is completed.

Complete & total pipe dream, but I'm guessing you already know that.

I don't own property. I never served.

I'll keep my voting rights, thanks.

Requiring a Real ID would be nice.

And early / mail in voting needs to be seriously curtailed.

Quoted:
I didn't own property while serving in the Marines overseas.

And I damn sure think I earned the right to vote.

View Quote

You did.

I think a property ownership requirement is stupid.

On the other hand, anyone who has been receiving government handouts on the taxpayers dime for over 90 days should not be allowed to vote. I am not talking about social security/disability/medicare rather food-stamps, cash assistance or state/federal healthcare assistance.

Be able to care for yourself and you can vote. I hate the idea of two guys voting, the guy in one booth is paying for the other guys meals and that guy votes himself a raise.

This would require amending the Constitution. You do realize that, right? Do you really want to formally empower the Feds to controul elections?
