    "Voting should take some effort."
The libertarian in me wants to disagree with that. However, one MUST consider the realities of what the left will go to (and even some on the right) to steal an election. And widespread voter fraud is something we have lived with for several decades too long.

Given this reality, most of the safeguards suggested by conservatives that libs have fought tooth & nail ARE NOT asking too much effort from any voters.

One effort I used to also adamantly rejected in the past was any form of test that one needed to pass before they were deemed eligible to vote (I still am against it BTW). Sadly, libs & the MSM have taken advantage of this & perfected the art of intentionally misinforming the voting public purely for partisan gain. Far too many Americans decide who they will vote for based on reality defying conclusions that were manufactured by, then pounded into them by the MSM & DNC.

(I know it would never work & I'd adamantly fight any attempt to implement it, but) It's a shame that folks can't be forced to answer a series of key questions on major issues where wrong responses would provide them with the facts before they cast their votes. I bet that literally millions of voters would chose the wrong answers because of the success the DNC & their media arm (the MSM) have had for so long in intentionally misleading the voting public.

To say I have completely lost faith in the MSM & the DNC would be a gross understatement.
