Voter suppression is a greater danger than fraud. NO on Save America act
To: Rep. Golden
From: A verified voter in Lewiston, ME
February 9
Look at the Save America act and vote NO.
The fairness of our elections is more imperilled by voter suppression and gerrymandering than it is by voter fraud. We the people should choose our representatives: politicians should not choose their voters.
But look: the SAVE America act. This bill not only requires proof of citizenship to register to vote, but requires photo ID to cast a ballot as well.
With more than 21 million American citizens unable to access the required documents, the passage of such a bill would be disastrous.
The act would also prohibit universal voting by mail, block states from counting absentee ballots received after election day, and require frequent voter purges that would kick eligible citizens off the rolls.
Tell me how this protects elections ? It subverts them.
Vote NO
