In a long awaited move, President Trump has signed an executive order mandating positive voter identification requirements in federal elections.
I linked an article from the Hindustan Times because it doesn't have the liberal bullshit talking points like American outlets do. It's pretty much straight up. Read an article about it from CNN or NBC and you'll see what I mean.
Here's the second paragraph in the NBC version:
The order — which also includes an array of other changes, from mail-in ballot deadlines to election equipment — could risk disenfranchising tens of millions of Americans. Election law experts questioned whether Trump had the authority to make the changes, saying the order is all but certain to be met with legal challenges.
Typical comments in other media outlets, this one from USA Today:
Voting-rights groups warn that voter identification requirements, long championed by Republicans, can make it harder for eligible seniors, minorities, low-income and students to vote.
"This executive order, if it could survive the inevitable judicial challenge, would severely shift power over federal elections into the hands of the Presidency," wrote UCLA law professor Rick Hasen on Election Law Blog. "This would prevent only a tiny amount of noncitizen voter registration but stop millions of eligible voters, who do not have easy access to documents such as passports from registering to vote."
Sophia Lin Lakin, director of the American Civil Liberties Union's Voting Rights Project, slammed Trump's order as a "blatant overreach that threatens to disenfranchise tens of millions of eligible voters."
"This measure will no doubt disproportionately impact historically excluded communities, including voters of color, naturalized citizens, people with disabilities, and the elderly, by pushing unnecessary barriers to the fundamental right to vote," Lakin said.
It's always about minorities and "people of color," whom the Democrats have long asserted are apparently too stupid and lazy to have an ID. Why would "people with disabilities, and the elderly" be less likely to have an ID?
Complete fucktards.
