Plan for executive order to mandate ID for voters
*[The voter suppressor] says he plans unconstitutional executive order
to mandate
ID for voters.*
It is clear this is unconstitutional, so what could be his motive
for doing it? I see some possibilities.
-
The Supreme Court might trash the constitution again
by accepting this.
-
Republican-dominated states might seize this excuse to disenfranchise
all the poor and overloaded voters that can't spare the time and money
to get an updated federal ID. If they have not done so anyway.
-
The order might whip up magats to pressure their states
to do that.
-
He might issue the order a few weeks before an election, hoping
that states won't be able to get the court case decided in time
for hold the election without demanding federal ID.
