Looking for Dem-Gazette editorial "Do we really need more voters?"
Is there anyone that can send me a copy of the editorial that appeared in last Thursday's Democrat-Gazette with that title? I didn't get a copy of the paper, and I don't want to pay them money on their website to get an editorial that is so fascist. From what I've been told the guy basically called for a return to the days of Jim Crow ballot access laws. This needs to be responded to, and I would be very grateful if someone could post or PM me the editorial.
Thanks DUers!

2. Very true
I finally got this editorial. It actually calls for a Constitution Test to make sure "ignorant" people are not voting. I can't believe they printed it.

3. Ignorance test....
Sounds great to me. Do you really think that we should have people that don't know that Alaska is a state voting?

ID's, basic tests that THEY give to citizenship applicants, maybe even a requirement that you have been living on your own and paying your own way in life for at least five years.
I'd be all for that.

And you are the one who used the word 'Ignorant'.

Thanks for listening.
