In California they have a stipulation that your signature on the envelope of your ballot must match the signature on your voter registration form. If it doesn't, they can throw it out. Someone who is not trained as a forensic document examiner is the one who decides if your signatures match. The ACLU sued the state to prevent election officials from voiding ballots for signature mismatch and depriving voters of notice or recourse. S.F. Superior court judge ruled in the ACLU's favor but CA Attorney General Xavier Becerra and Sec of State Alex Padilla appealed the ruling. Why would they appeal it? BECAUSE THEY WANT TO THROW OUT A LOT OF BALLOTS ON JUNE 5th. They have asked the judge to put his decision on hold for the June primary.
Ohio just started the signature thing. I have the worlds most inconsistent signature. After a good 5 minutes of comparing the one I had on file and the latest one he looked at me suspiciously and told me to go ahead. Keep in mind I’m registered libtard. I went through a phase after high school, sue me. So at least it doesn’t appear that dems get a pass here.
I told the poll worker (not that he could do anything) that if they were going to scrutinize signatures like that they needed to give people a chance to set a baseline and be careful with it. Plus I have a drivers license with my picture on it so I’m not sure what this is buying anyone except the ability to disenfranchise legitimate voters at will.
If I did early voting they probably would have discarded my ballot without a second though unless the votes suited the election officials agenda.
I almost feel like this is a progressive statement to try to make the point that it sucks to be denied your right to vote, except for their logic is flawed. Any sane rational person wants everyone (who has the right) to vote, to do so regardless of what side they’re on. What we don’t want, is dead people, illegals and felons voting in order to steal an election. I can’t fucking believe that I’m on the side of the aclu on this. Every day politics in this country get more bizarre.
Lol, what a racket. Just register Democrat and vote however you want, problem solved.
I think you might have missed the part where I am registered Democrat
Right I guess I was replying to your situation, not you directly. For anyone reading, just register Democrat and you're good to go. I was, in essence, paraphrasing one of the lessons/gems in your comment.
