Michigan asks voters if they’re legal citizens; ACLU freaks out


Michigan asks voters if they’re legal citizens; ACLU freaks out

The American Civil Liberties Union teamed up with the SEIU and a few other interested groups to sue the Michigan Secretary of State, Ruth Johnson, over her addition of a check box to ballot applications, asking voters to confirm they are U.S. citizens who legally have the right to vote.  ACLU’s Michigan executive director, Kary Moss, described this as a “cynical voter suppression tactic.”

No, this is not a joke or satire.  The ACLU actually thinks a check box asking voters to confirm that they’re legally entitled to vote constitutes “suppression.”  The mad scramble to protect vote fraud operations had degenerated into this level of absolute lunacy.  Devoid of anything approaching a logical argument, vote fraud defenders are down to describing a simple “Yes or No” question on ballot applications as a “roadblock” that will “confuse” and “intimidate” minority voters.
