If you don't respond to it and turn it down, accept it, what have you, they do it anyway. Gee, I wonder what affiliation they'll chose for you?

How the hell could automatic voter registration steal elections? It doesn't make people vote! And your affiliation conspiracy theory is full retard. Did you even know that county clerks can be Democratic or repug?

We don't need automatic voter registration. If the person doesn't care enough to register to vote, why do you think they care enough to educate themselves on the issues and candidates before they vote? I would prefer a few well educated voters over a mob of people who vote based on TV ads or the flyer they get in the mail.

Exactamundo on that particular puke stain excuse of sensible legislation.

@Rick, I'm with you brother. The only ones flipping us the bird and getting on soap boxes to do so are really the ones that are influenced by Cali lunacy, and they're now jamming every piece of conservative hating (really, America hating) law they can right up all of us sane people's arses. The thing is, there's so many more of us than them imo, we're just all screwed by the flat out conspiracy against our core ideals on a national scale, as in every type of media around. I've seen enough, not just here in Colorado, ALL over the place, but we're headin there pretty fast. Conifer is a joke now man, I was just up there this afternoon visiting and old buddy that has a view of the "strip," and the people you meet now around up here? My god man, and those people are going to push stuff LOCally? Yep, I'm about done too, my wife and I have decided that we'll give it ten years (absolute max) and then we'll be able to get a spread somewhere, hopefully with a chunk of dirt keeping people at a damn distance. I'm thinking south, like New Mexico or if heading north, northwest Wyoming, maybe Montana. When we all leave and the golden goose economy the lefties have now gotten their claws into collapses, then they'll be right at home, and only a couple states away from where they were spawned!

So you'd prefer not being able to vote yourself?

You do realize we get our ballots mailed to us right? My mom lived with us about 16 years ago and we still get her ballot mailed to us every year and she lives in Texas. If I was a POS I may be inclined to fill her ballot out and vote however I chose. You assume nobody commits voter fraud, but the hatred I see these days makes me think that voter fraud is becoming more and more likely. I think those ballots should be verified every year as to who is actually eligible (like being alive, a citizen, not a felon, a resident, etc). Too much to ask?

Bill has nothing to do with your mother's situation, but if you were to commit voter fraud that would be par for the course. The only voter fraud I heard about lately was committed by repugs in North Carolina.
Voter roll verification isn't an issue for me, but purging is.

Par for the course huh? HOWTF would you know that? Do you know me personally? You don't, so you know where you can stick that BS. My point is that there are people out there that hate this president so much that if given the chance you know damn well those people would love to get more than one vote.

I'm assuming that if registration was automatic, those people would be getting ballots mailed to them even if they have no intention of taking the time to fill them out.

Ignore everything but auto voter registration, nice. I'll simplify it for you this way;

MY significant other wants nothing to do with politics, has every right to register to vote, but doesn't want to. She despises politics, that's HER RIGHT as a citizen, so who tf are you people or anyone under the sun to tell her it's now mandatory she's registered? If people want to vote, they'll keep their sh** up to date. As Rick said, you know where you can stick it. Hatred is straight coming from the lefties, especially mainstream media/news/whatever outlets.
EDIT: And regardless of people's opinions on whether or not privacy is completely dead nowadays, when you're registered to vote, your personal info is posted as public record. That's also a bunch of b.s!
