"According to the Secretary of State's Office, the law allows a pretty wide interpretation of who's eligible to vote. Deputy Secretary of State Dave Scanlan said that in theory, a person could move into the state a day before an election, establish domicile in the state, vote and then leave the next day."


It always puzzles me why so many people are so involved in preventing other people from voting. This is America, there is no requirement that a citizen maintain a place of residence. We are free to move from place to place without asking permission. We may also wonder the land, homeless or in an RV that is our home.

Did you ever hear about Johny Appleseed? He is an American icon but if he tried to vote in a current election he might have problems with the residency police.

I'm sorry if your party is not getting as many votes as in the past. But the answer is to make your party more inclusive. Taking away the Constitutional right to vote is NOT the answer.
