I'll just say it now and get it out of the way, if you want voter ID you are a racist.

Every registered voter in Colorado gets a mail ballot.
That isn't going to change any time soon.

Voting has started and the excuses for losing are starting already.

The GOP leaders who pushed voter ID laws, did it in such a way as to lose in court because they were proven to disenfranchise minority voters.

This of course comes from the Party of Rep. Pittenger and a Ohio party chair who made overtly racist statements and is apologizing every chance he gets and the other resigned.

The GOP trying to enlarge that tent every chance they get, so Nutty Don is in the right party.

...Or maybe the laws were "proven to disenfranchise minority voters" (even though every citizen can easily get a photo ID) because Obama's appointed so many lower court judges who agree with him and a lot of his false narratives....

Democrats have very low standards for us minorities and they prove this over and over again. If one cannot give a satisfactory reason for why IDs are so burdensome, say "racism" and this should shut people up
Really wonder how people make it through life without no ID seeing that most of us need it for almost everything these days.

The rolls are purged but it is an onerous process.
Deceased voters cannot be purged if the name that appears on the multiple documents the SoS uses to certify death is in any way different from the name that appears on the voter rolls.

From the original report:

"Broerman said after their deaths, the Sosas remained on active voter rolls and mail ballots were still sent to their home because they did not meet the criteria to have their names deleted from eligible voter rolls."
...
State voting officials say they can only delete names from voting rolls if a number of precise criteria from death databases are met: names must be spelled precisely right, dates of birth must be correct and addresses must match. They say in many cases minor errors on the voter rolls or death databases leave election officials no choice but to leave dead people registered, leading to potential fraud and mistaken votes."

This whole voting fraud thing is a HUGE smokescreen erected by the Republicans to purge minorities from the voter rolls. .

It's really not a secret and Trump is in on it with his insistence that people in PA voted 'lots of times" and asking his people to intimidate voters. He's right on board with purging the rolls and allowing apartheid voting.

^^^^This is pure nonsense. Not only that, but you insulted minorities by implying that they are incapable of getting valid IDs.

Did you look at the video in post #16? I'm guessing that you didn't bother to do so.

My birth certificate is creased. The state refuses to accept it because it is creased. I live 2000 miles from the state I was born in, and getting a replacement birth certificate is difficult and expensive. Your turn.

What a crock of ..........The republican majority has blocked more lower court appointments than any other congress since 1969. That's almost 50 years!

"Lawmakers confirmed a Circuit Court judge nominated by President Barack Obama. Luis Felipe Restrepo of Pennsylvania became only the second Circuit Court judge approved in the past year, and the 12th federal judge overall, an approval rate slower than any time since 1969".
