      So, you reject the concern as a matter of principle, or you accept the legitimacy but insist that government may do nothing to advance it? Answer or there is no point in going further.

      The “concern” has no empirical basis, and is thus in bad faith! The government should prioritize and address *actual public policy problems*, not contrived ones. This is not one—**as you have written.** Not me, not Scott, not Harold, not “the left”—you.

      So, you do not acknowledge that it is ever legitimate to require voters to vote where eligible & registered, or you contend that it is literally impossible to do otherwise?

      All of that stuff is easy to work out—the issue is there is hardly any fraud—*as you have written*— and a decade ago you all started this for no public policy rationale other than defense of partisan power. It might indeed disaggregate your own base—regardless, it’s grotesque.

      So, you refuse to even begin to debate this issue in good faith. Unsurprising. Which makes debating specifics pointless.

      Lol. Dan—***You wrote that there is no material voter fraud.*** You!!! And that was to your credit—it displayed some intellectual honesty. And now you’re pissed because that utterly undercuts all of this garbage, reveals it to be pretextual. So you’re doing legal hand waving.

      So, you contend that every time a court has overturned an election - and this has happened several times - it was wrong? My contention is that there is no *large scale* voter fraud - ie, tens of thousands. Your contention is that fraud is AOK.

      Dan--you're sounding as desperate as the voter suppressors. It's idiotic and morally grotesque for you to contend that I or anybody here thinks that "fraud is AOK." I pointed out to people here that you opposed stopping "souls to the polls." And, well, this is how you argue.

      Your complete inability to even acknowledge that there could *ever* be legitimate reasons to limit votes to those who are eligible & registered where they vote shows why this debate is pointless.

      You've said this now, oh, three times, four times--I expected a little better closing argument, tbh. No, I pointed out that that was easy stuff to work out with good faith interlocutors--obviously the GOP is not that. Pre textual, brother, pre textual. Own it.

      It's not a closing argument, it's an opening question.

          And I gave you an answer. But you never answered Scott's two points: 1) There is no "significant" voter fraud; 2) The effort to address--filled with all kinds of obvious ploys to limit non white and college age voters--is *pre textual.* In short, why two, if one is true?

          Because there is no point debating how government achieves an end with someone who refuses to concede that it could ever be a legitimate end.
