I was in Concord Yesterday. The car in front of me on Main Street, a Honda Fit, had a Clinton-Kaine bumper sticker and another from the ACLU that said something like ‘Let Them Vote.’
The ACLU and I get along swimmingly on issues of free speech but not so much on their false-flag, straw-man student voting rights agenda which, in New Hampshire, has a laser-focus on making excuses for letting non-residents steal local elections. A narrative that took a knee to the groin this past week with the State Supreme Court decision on House Bill 1264.
As a public courtesy, I feel compelled to revisit this at least one more time, because the Liberals won’t stop kicking the dead horse of ‘student voting rights’ which, if considered in the proper context, may constitute vote suppression by New Hampshire Democrats.
If you are 18-years old or above and not a felon you get to vote.
Depending on your circumstances you may vote in person or by mail.
New Hampshire Democrats have proposed legislation to allow anyone in the state to cast their vote by absentee ballot. So, such an action is clearly not a hardship. We may even go so far as to call it a convenience.
If voting by mail is reasonable and students have a right to vote, then they also have a right to vote by mail.
And what is a vote? It is your expression of who and how you would like your, local, state, and federal government depending on the election to exert (or not) some amount of force on the affected “community.”
Convincing “students” who pay out of state tuition to vote here even though they fail to meet UNH residency requirements for in-state tuition prevents them from effectuating a political environment (back home) that could have a direct effect on how their local government exerts force against them. Fees, taxes, spending, laws, and regulations, are all acts of force.
By telling them “it’s okay to vote here” someone has suppressed their vote where it matters most.
In exchange for using that vote to affect political force in New Hampshire, advocates are promising that the “student” need not necessarily be subject to that force. If Democrats raise the cost of registering a car or obtaining a driver’s license out of state students who effectively made that increase possible by voting for Democrats will not have to pay it.
Not unless they decide to stay. A bet no New Hampshire Democrat pushing the “brain-drain” narrative can honestly make if honesty is even possible. Students, we are told year-after-year, leave New Hampshire after graduation. It’s such a big problem that buckets of money are spent to figure out why or how to get them to stay. Candidates run for office promising to spend more to keep students here.
Here’s an idea.
Allow students to vote by mail from the address that UNH has identified as making them ineligible for in-state tuition and stop telling them to vote for Democrats in New Hampshire.
No more ‘vote suppression’ and we’ve probably just fixed the ‘brain-drain’ problem.
You can thank me later.
