Democrat voting rules bill prohibits states from requiring ID or social to obtain absentee ballot

Voting rules legislation that Democrats are moving forward in the 50-50 Senate would prohibit states from imposing an identification requirement in order to obtain an absentee ballot ahead of an election.

Phillip Kline, former Kansas attorney general, disagrees with those provisions of the Freedom to Vote Act that would create one-size-fits-all federal rules for absentee and mail-in ballots.

"There are commonsense protections that are placed on an absentee ballot because you do not have trained election officials to make sure that the voter is not misled or coerced or intimidated to vote a certain way and to make sure it was the actual voter who completed the ballot," he said.

"It never made sense to eliminate commonsense protections for the integrity of the election and for the inclusion of everybody in the counting center" or to have "Government put their thumb on the scale and turn out certain voters," Kline said.

The money went to voter turnout; to targeting specific voters to improperly break the chain of custody of all of these 'Zuckerboxes' that were dropped everywhere in the urban core.

" Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced on Tuesday that the Democrat-led Senate would move forward with votes on the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

If the GOP blocks the legislation from advancing, Schumer said, the Democrats would vote on some sort of rule change to allow floor debate on certain pieces of legislation dealing with issues prioritized by Democrats.
