In general, do you support or oppose the new version of the SAVE America Act?

Thursday, Mar 12

In general, do you support or oppose the new version of the SAVE America Act?

Support (36%) – "You need an ID: to drive, fly, buy alcohol, enter a government building, get a job, bank, get healthcare, etc. An ID to vote only makes sense. Just remove the barriers, if you need to get an ID, go to a DMV, reduce the cost of the ID to what it costs to make and free for those who can't afford. This is easy to solve, for those wishing to solve it."

  • "In a world with rapidly depleting trust in our institutions, secure elections is the one area that cannot be compromised no matter how rare it may be. The SAVE Act is a highly popular and favorable bill favored by both Republican and Democrat voters. Why wouldn't you pass it?!"

"I am more concerned about the intense pushback regarding tightening the standards around ensuring that only valid votes are cast than I am about the slim possibility that the rules will prevent valid voters from being able to register and cast a ballot. For example, REAL ID was passed and implemented and requires a passport or birth certificate to obtain one. At this point, everyone getting or renewing any state-issued ID will have to do this now. How is that more onerous than requiring the same documentation to register or re-register to vote? We require proof of identity to open a bank account, rent or buy a house/apartment, rent a car, board a plane, board a cruise ship, and on and on. Why should the bar be lower to exercise one our most important privileges? And that word was chosen intentionally. Voting is a privilege, not a right. It can be revoked, as is the case for convicted felons."

  • "The Democrat reasoning is complete BS. They are claiming that married women are too dumb to update their IDs with their married name. They are also claiming that there are people too poor to get IDs, but those same people need a government ID to receive any government assistance. Something close to 90% of Americans do not see needing an ID to vote as an issue. Makes you wonder why the Democrats in office are so opposed to it."

Oppose (61%) – "On the surface, it seems like common sense to require verification of citizenship. However, the devil is in the details. Women who have married need both birth certificate and marriage certificate, maybe a divorce certificate. If I have a driver's license or other government ID, I already had to provide that documentation. Don't make it difficult for a gender to vote bc our patriarchal society expects women to take their husband's name."

  • "We already have secure elections and mail in ballots allow citizens to vote without out all the confusion and rush of polling places. This is Trumps way of limiting voting and reducing Americans input into elected officials. Why should we listen to a convicted felon on how and when we should vote."

"It is the government‘s responsibility to ensure that only eligible US citizens are registered to vote & participating in elections. That responsibility should not be placed on millions of lawful voters forcing them to overcome unnecessary obstacles just to exercise a fundamental right. Creating a new barrier for registration places an unfair burden on eligible Americans, many of whom have difficulty obtaining or replacing documents through no fault of their own. When there is little credible evidence that none US citizens are attempting to register or vote in significant numbers, it simply does not make sense to create a multitude of new problems when none already exist. Protecting election integrity is important, but it should be done in a way that saveguards access to the ballot rather than making it harder for eligible citizens to participate in the democratic process."

  • "It simply is not needed and is just a political move that will disenfranchise many voters who do not have easy access to their needed paperwork and the bill contains other provisions to, which would affect people who have had name changes, etc. I was born an American citizen,on a US base overseas and luckily have all my paperwork but not all do . Just a bad piece of legislation, meant to benefit a certain political party."

"So many reasons. The SAVE Act would only create barriers for people to vote. It only applies to Federal election so would cause confusion among voters, some would only be able to vote in elections with no Federal offices. Record keeping as difficult as it is now would multiply. We already swear we are citizens when registering to vote, proof that an individual has lied about citizenship warrants arrest now. Adding more hoops to jump through will result in fewer people registering. It is a power grab on the part of Republicans."

  • "Actual facts have proven that voter fraud is a nonissue. This would make it very difficult for many to vote. It would be a poll tax, which is unconstitutional. It would prevent elderly, handicapped, disabled, and others from voting by mail."

Unsure/other (3%) – "I want to read the complete bill before I take a side. It makes sense that you need to present an ID to vote; however, and I want to understand more which documents prove your citizenship - I would assume is the birth certificate or the naturalization certificate."
