"Open The New York Times’ politics page Thursday morning and the top headline reads, “Democrats Begin Push For Biggest Expansion In Voting Since 1960s.”
It’s a story about the most important election power-grab in modern legislative history, with a slim, partisan majority of senators seeking to wrest control of elections away from state governments to ensure Democrat control for decades to come.
For starters,
- H.R. 1 will ban voter ID requirements,
- mandate early voting windows,
- allow outside activist groups to deliver votes for counting,
- do away with notarized absentee ballots,
- force states to accept absentees for 10 days after an election is over,
- narrow the Federal Election Commission by one member to allow for partisan control,
- mandate counting illegal aliens in voting districts,
- allow the IRS to investigate non-profits’ political ideas, and
- make it nearly impossible to sue over the new rules.
In short, it’s a story about Democrats aiming to seize massive power over how elections are run.
