“Yea, but lawyers told us we can’t.” That is the mantra from longtime Republicans in NH when you ask about stopping voter fraud. I have heard this for years.
I have been lied to and mislead by lawyers for 30 years. That is not unusual. But for people who claim they want their political party to win elections, it is a puzzling comment – or excuse for not wanting to get your hands dirty fighting progressives.
What is more puzzling is why, when the Constitution, numerous federal as well as state court cases are in your favor, Republicans take the fetal position of, let’s face it, “anonymous lawyers told you so.”
Recently a new excuse popped up regarding the thousands of non-domiciled, illegal, fraudulent college students voters who steal elections in NH from their temporary residence in our state.
Here it is.
“We can’t treat college students differently than other voters.” That is simply another excuse for losing elections to unqualified voters.
But how would any law NH passed treat a legitimate college voter differently? There is no law I know of that singles out college town voters for a special hurdle when registering to vote. That ended in 1972 with Newburger v. Peterson.
I can think of several ways we do treat our unqualified, non-domiciled, illegal college student voters differently. We let them keep an out of state driver’s license after voting here and we make sure they do not serve on a New Hampshire or Federal jury by keeping them off the jury pool.
Now that, and any lawyer worth his salt or not lying to you will admit, is a violation of my right to vote.
Notice I mentioned college students are being kept OFF jury duty lists in NH? I want to make sure everyone is paying attention to this. I have been tracking voter fraud in NH for over twenty years and I believe, after serving on a jury recently, that there is an effort by some entity or persons in NH to keep, unqualified but registered, college student voters off our jury lists which are supposed to be “blended” with DMV records.
That is my next goal – get enough evidence, in spite of the NH Legislature shutting down the transparency of jury duty lists, as with everything else involving voters, to prove NH is facilitating out-of-state voting by making it harder to catch them when they are called for jury duty – like a real citizen.
