From Redstate (via Scotusblog), this snippet (in honor of Ed catching double voter Jared Cram – emphasis mine):
The Supreme Court, with two Justices noting dissents, on Wednesday afternoon allowed North Carolina to bar voters from registering and casting their ballots on the same day, and to refuse to count votes that were cast in the wrong polling places. Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor dissented. The majority did not explain its action.
The order gives the state time to file an appeal from lower-court rulings striking down those two provisions, which were part of a larger, sweeping change in voting rights in the state. If the Court grants review of the state’s appeal, the postponement will remain in effect until there is a decision.
Perfect! Here in NH at the last election, we saw an incredible 100,000 same day registrations (where we have about 890,000 voters) – and finally being pushed into to, letters were sent out to verify those registrations – a LOT were undeliverable and no-returns, so voter fraud happens here as well.
Look, if you can’t get your butt into town hall to register on time(and there are lots of “agencies” willing to do just that), or get set up with an absentee ballot, and if you are too dumb or lazy to go to the right polling place (and yes, having been told “wrong place”, haven’t the motivation to get your butt to the right one) then just maybe we should rejigger everything around you. Too often we hear “My Right, My Rights!” and way to much about “My Responsibility”. And part of that last part is being able to be sufficiently responsible for knowing the dates for different parts of your civic responsibilities and actions to carry them out. Putting the burden on pretty much everyone else except yourself is wrong.
Yes, some people do need a lot of help – but like I said, there is no shortage of people who are willing to help, but if you can’t even ask….
