Seconded. Thank you @albesure for the link. The article is well worth a couple minutes of your life.

AZ is on itâs 3rd "businessman as governor. One was âasked to leaveâ office when he got caught embezzling money from his inaugural fund and using it to prop up his car dealership (yes we elected a used car dealer). Another was sent off to prison due to crooked real estate dealings with Charlie Keating (McCainâs career was nearly destroyed in this). Now we have the former CEO of Cold Stone Creamery in office. Heâs a real piece of work. So my take on businesspeople as office holders is not a good one.

Agreed. My question is, in addition to all of the wrong matches, even if it worked right wouldnât you have matches for the same person who moved between elections? I certainly have never had my name removed from a voter roll from a state when I moved away, but have always religiously registered soon after i moved. I suppose thatâs what the cute little cards are supposed to check, but that just isnât good enough. I miss stuff in the mail all the time just because Iâm not very good at staying on top of things anymore. Yes, anger is the response. More like rage.

My concern is why hasnât there been a judgment by a court of law against these action? Clearly, the actions are against our existing watered-down shit â then why havenât they been smacked hard by any judge? Why hasnât a federal judge forced at least one of these ass-hattery states (this includes my home state of VA, where we are still by the GOP in Richmond) to actually dismantle their system, comply with lawâand show proof of doing soâand make an example so others will follow? This is really really disturbing to me. On so many levels.

Now I haz a sad, Darr. I used to like Cold Stone. Now I can never, ever, go back.
Donât get me wrong. I think itâs great to make it as easy as possible for people to vote. But âmental intentâ is so vaporous, so ethereal, that it doesnât really serve as a guideline. I would hope that they at least require an address that they actually reside at, to prevent the kind of carpetbagging that goes on with taxes. Trumpâs advisor is clearly using Florida to escape the income taxes in the states he actually resides in.
Ouch! Thatâs going to hurt him with his dimwitted crowd.
