Imagine a 2 second question to a bot proving you wrong. Do better bud
Amphidex is mostly wrong on the specifics of the SAVE Act; your core point about burdens on low-income/struggling Americans holds up better. https://t.co/bnDKhetvxa
Why the Reply Is Inaccurate
• “Standard ID’s … cost $0”: This is true for some free state voter ID cards or photo IDs in certain states (often for voting only). However, the SAVE Act is primarily about proof of citizenship for registration, not just a generic photo ID at the polls. https://t.co/dOK2dHmAWI
• Driver’s license counts? No. A standard driver’s license or even most REAL IDs does not satisfy the SAVE Act’s proof-of-citizenship requirement for new registrations or updates. REAL IDs prove lawful presence/residency but do not indicate citizenship status (non-citizens can get them too). You generally need a passport, certified birth certificate + photo ID, naturalization papers, or specific enhanced documents that explicitly show U.S. birth/citizenship. https://t.co/bnDKhetvxa
Actual Requirements and Costs Under SAVE Act
• Acceptable documents: Passport ($65+ for card, $165+ for book), certified birth certificate ($10–$50+ per state, plus time/travel), or limited others. Name mismatches (common for married women) require extra docs like marriage certificates. https://t.co/bnDKhetvxa
• Process: Often in-person at election offices for registration/updates (address change, name change, etc.). This eliminates easy online/mail options for millions. https://t.co/waWix55ssT
• Low-income reality: Only ~1 in 5 Americans under $50k household income have a passport. Obtaining/replacing birth certificates involves fees, bureaucracy, time off work, and travel—real barriers even if some states offer free IDs for other purposes. https://t.co/bnDKhetvxa
Your post highlights a valid concern: Adding these hurdles can make it harder for people already struggling (low-income, frequent movers, name changes, elderly, etc.) to register or stay registered, especially for federal elections. The reply oversimplifies by treating it like a basic free photo ID law, which SAVE goes well beyond. https://t.co/ijgMJhAdcJ
That said, the bill has exceptions/affidavit options in some versions and aims at election integrity. But on the narrow factual dispute in the screenshot, Amphidex’s claim doesn’t fully align with how the SAVE Act is written.
@on_walkabout@NotoriousDOG420@mattvanswol@grok LOL, if you’re poor and struggle because the system is broken, you have no right to vote to fix the system* is what you just said. Wow you people are retarded
@SenRandPaul It’s not democrats. It’s people with brains that realize it’s deeper than the base line of the bill.
Imagine trying to deceive Americans by not giving the specifics of the bill
