The left would not do everything in its power to eliminate voter registration laws if it was not politically advantageous to them. So while they claim things like voter ID laws are racist, they are not fooling anyone.
Elie Mystal appeared on “Morning Joe” to call for the elimination of “all voter registration laws” because of something to do with slavery and racism.
According to the Daily Caller:
Mystal argued that any American should only have to meet eligibility requirements, such as age, in order to cast a ballot during elections, suggesting that voter registration has a racist and anti-immigrant undertone. He stated that voting rights need to be expanded in order to help more Democrats vote.
“We could eliminate all voter registration laws. You see, when Democrats get in charge we try to protect voting rights. We don’t make voting easier. Now I’m all for voter eligibility requirements, we might disagree with what those requirements should be. But let’s say that there should be an age limit to vote, I might say 16, you might say 18, but I’m not gonna say 8. So we’re gonna agree that there should be voter eligibility requirements, but once you’re eligible, why do you have to preregister? Why is that even a thing?” Mystal said.
It's not possible to "protect voting rights" when it's on the honor system. Additionally, eliminating "all voter registration laws" will make it easier for ineligible people to vote, which overrides the vote from an eligible person. So while he claims the Dems "don't make voting easier," that's comical because he's literally trying to do just that.
“It wasn’t a thing in this country at the founding, we didn’t have voter preregistration in 1787, we didn’t have voter preregistration in 1821, we only started having voter registration generally speaking after the Civil War,” Mystal continued. “Why do you think that is? It’s because a bunch of freed African slaves were migrating up north and all of a sudden New York was like ‘we need some registration up in here.’ A bunch of immigrants from Europe, [from] Ireland and Italy were coming to New York, people were like ‘oh, we need some registration in here.'”
Why do these people only fight identification laws when it does them no favors? If voter registration helped them win elections they would be all in it but these people clearly have an incentive to prevent that.
Why does he even care so much? He's basically saying Black people are incapable of voting and to call that racist would be an understatement. So while he claims to be all in it to end racism, he is actually fueling it.
That being said, if I did not know any better I would say he's fighting to make it easier for criminal aliens to vote but I do know better so I will not be saying that.
