Record number of homeless exected to vote this fall

[BTW]

What makes you think it matters what precinct they vote in?

Wonder if the dead and the illegal immigrants will set records as well?

It matters if they have no home, if they are voting in multiple precincts. How can you check?
Do you like the idea of you getting one vote and someone without a physical address getting 4 votes?

You know, there are times when I think that only allowing Land Owners to vote was the right choice.  I think that someone who has made money, and purchased their own house / land, would believe (by nature alone) in the best thing for the US.

Problem is I dont think they would vote for the best thing for the USA.
Just for the best thing for themselves.

Power always seems to push for more power for itself.
Typically and the expence of others.

Look at any security force,Police, Or homelend security.

That is unless you think that the best thing for themselves may also be the best thing for the US.

This sounds a lot like that Socialism you hate so much.
Do what's best for the whole not the individual.
You don't understand why you should vote this way.
Sounds pretty Socialist to me lol.

People registering to vote do not have to give a full Social Security number. How are we making sure homeless people aren't registered in multiple precincts and voting 5 times?

If it actually worked like that, it wouldn't matter if you were homeless or not as to how many time you could vote. You can't vote with out  a voters id card. If it was so simple to get one that a homeless guy could get four, well we would have a lot more to worry about that homeless people.

Why stop at homeless people what makes them so special that you think only they could cheat the system if you honestly believe it can be cheated?

Where does owning a property show up as a constitutional requirement to exercise a constitutional right? As far as the homeless registering in multiple locations is concerned, a property owner could do the exact same thing. There is nothing preventing a property owner from registering in several districts using bogus info any more than a homeless person.

As far as maintaining a positive ID is concerned, exactly how do you propose that be done? A universal ID card perhaps?

To answer your question; My wife deals with these homeless EVERY DAY.  They are patients that have "institutionalized" problems or drug abuser or alcohol abusers. If your country thinks that its fine that these sort of folks determine the fate of your country in a close election, then fine. In MY country, they HAVE the right to vote, but should not be tempted to vote by "motor voter" *(where a pack of cigs are offered to vote) nor should they be recruited to vote in a state of mind where they have no idea who they're voting for. THAT is exactly the type of voters the democrats WILL seek out, just to win an election.

You seem to have misinterpeted what I said
What I was referring to is if only landowners were allowed to vote.
The landowners would be the only ones with power over what goes on. What laws are passed, etc etc.
Nobody else would have a say. Because they wouldnt be allowed to have a voice (the vote).

The ones with power always tend to try to press for more power for themselves.
At the expence of others.

Keep in mind Dred there are other considerations.

For those who seem to think property ownership is so special, some of the folks that need to be bailed out financially are those that are / were land owners. You want to insure that they have a vote too but the folks who manage their affairs yet rent should not. Again, where is the constitutional requirement that you own property in order to vote? What other rights should a citizen be denied if they don't own property? How about the right to speak their minds, peaceably assemble, worship as they choose, own a firearm? Should they also be subject to unwarranted search since they rent? Of course they should also be forced to answer questions and be denied a lawyer at interrogations. I mean why the hell should any of the constitution be applied to non property owners?

It sure makes sense to disenfranchise a segment of the population doesn't it. Make property so expensive that only the rich can afford it and soon only the rich are voting. Why bother with lobbyists?
