          One last comment. One other thing everyone fails to realize is if any changes or modifications need to be made to any ballot proposals, it requires another ballot proposal by the citizens to do it. The Legislature cannot change anything no matter how small.

          The other thing in your bias of omission is the reason straight ticket voting was rescinded was to allow people to vote for who they wanted in the primary elections, instead of having to vote for only one party or the other.

          It wasn't that hard to register to vote to begin with. You could get the form from literally any government office anywhere, including the post office. Or you could call and have one sent to you. You just had to submit it a month before the election to verify citizenship.

          * Straight ticket voting is how Texas is flipping votes away from O'Rourke.

          And every state in the country needs to follow suit. Think Georgia and the methods used to prevent eligible citizens from voting. No wonder we are drifting into a banana republic. Only Republicans need vote. They make fools of us and we let them.

          Why not ban all voting regulation? Allow everyone to cast a ballot without any registration requirement. Law and policy impacts everyone, including the unborn. Pregnant women get additional #vote for each fetus.
