??? errr.... huh??


Voter qualifications

To register to vote, you must be:

1. A U.S. citizen
2. At least 18 years old by Election Day
<http://www.voterinfonet.com/sub/deadlines.asp>
3. A resident of your precinct at least 30 days prior to an election
<http://www.voterinfonet.com/sub/deadlines.asp>

What is Item 1, Paul?


Why do you believe this allows non-citizens to vote? I gotta say - I
am totally confused by your stance on this, Paul. I see no support at
all for your position that Chicago allows non-citizens to vote.

No, Paul, I don't have to do it. You made a statement that is probably
not true, didn't back it up, and now expect me to believe it? Why?

Your support for that, Paul, besides "Even the dead vote there".

Where does the Chicago Law state tyat all thats needed to vote is a
license, apparently;y not even an Illinois license is ID enough?

I stop at your first statement. Please name one single place where
having a legal identification is all thats needed to vote?

Please name one. At that point I will begin to accept some of the rest
of your argument.

I can't be any clearer, but I will try again.

It has everything to do with giving them driver's licenses because



licenses are LEGAL identification. In most states, that is ALL that is
required to cast a ballot. No LEGAL ID = NO VOTE / LEGAL ID = VOTE.



You have it ass-backward; giving them drivers licenses has nothing to
do



with legalizing their driving. Your argument is that giving them drivers
licenses will make them visible. How? The plan was just to stop
requiring
proof of residence, so everyone will get a license but you will have no


way


of identifying who is legal and who is not. It would in no way identify


them


or make them "visible" (whatever that means).



Ask yourself what benefit there is to giving illegals a legal license

and




ID? All you've done is legalize their illegal behavior (driving). If

they

are caught driving without a license now, they don't get arrested or
deported. So if you give them a license then what? When they get pulled


over


for speeding, they just get a ticket for speeding instead of one for
speeding and one for driving without a license. Big whoop. Where is the


big


"visibility" benefit?



Insurance? Trust me, giving them a license is NOT going to make them
run



out and get insurance, either. Driving without insurance is illegal, but
they do that, too. Ask anyone in CA where having uninsured motorist
coverage is a necessity. Even if you get hit by someone WITH a license,


you


have 50/50 chance that they are not insured. If their license is taken


away,


they drive anyway.



So let's see.

It won't increase "visibility" because it won't identify them as
illegal
No benefit to them being "visible" anyway
Won't make them go out and get insurance, as can be seen in CA and
other



states



Oh, but they WILL be able to cast ballots...

Clear enough?

Rich, lets assume that you and I agree on everything you write here.
But... what does that have to do with illegals and driving licenses?

if the system is so bad that dead people can vote, then the system is
bad enough that illegals can vote if they wish. Drivers licenses will

not affect that in any way.

Every year THOUSANDS of applications get through and put on

rolls. Even dead people. In Chicago there were over 1000 registered




phantom





voters at one two-bedroom house. Also, with a valid state ID you




CAN





vote, even if your name is NOT on the register. You can cast




a





"provisional" ballot that will have to be sorted out long after

election





night.





And the rules in most states say that the provisional ballot




has





counted until it is DIS-proven, not proven.




As I said before, this behavior will at the very least




affect





elections in that it will build false momentum and influence polling


data






and





reporting. Worse yet, in states like CA, a candidate can not




even





contest an election if the gap is wider than a certain percent (I
think




it





was 3%). So if you can get enough fake votes to win by that




percent,





they won't even check ballots for illegally cast votes.





BTW: Opaque means that you can't see THROUGH it. The opacity of




a





surface determines the extent to which it is NOT transparent. Reducing




the





opacity of the illegals would make them TRANSPARENT. The opposite




of





what he meant. It was not a dig, just a correction. A lot of people




who





don't live half their lives in Photoshop get that backward...

Uh, no, opacity means you *can't* see.






The "motor-voter" law requires every one getting a

form






filed....





That's misleading at best. The only thing that "Motor




Voter"





provides




is an application to register to vote and the transmittal of that
application to the Registrar of Voters or other election official.
The












Registrar then makes the determination if that applicant meets the
criteria for eligibility, including age, felony conviction, and
citizenship requirements. What is there to object to?
