That federal law allows voters to fill out a mail-in card and swear they are citizens under penalty of perjury, but doesn&#8217;t require them to show proof as Arizona&#8217;s law does.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Since every state requires adults of voting age to have either a state driver&#8217;s license or picture ID, and require such a stringent layers of hoops to propel yourself through to prove you&#8217;re eligible for those, what&#8217;s the damn problem with using those to prove you&#8217;re eligible to vote.<\/p>\n<p>The Left&#8217;s  argument that it reminds them of the &#8220;poll taxes&#8221; of the the first half of the last century is just stupid. Since there are millions of criminals running around this country who aren&#8217;t eligible to vote and the government isn&#8217;t willing to round them up, someone should do something to insure they don&#8217;t pollute the results of our political process with their perverse sense of justice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the Arizona law that required voters to prove &hellip; <a title=\"9th Circuit strikes again\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=20976\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">9th Circuit strikes again<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-illegal-immigrants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=20976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20976\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=20976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=20976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
