Saban getting political.

He can frick off with that. Be the goat coach, don't stick your nose into stuff you know nothing about.

Good for him. Trying to make it harder for people to vote is BS

I'm not excited about the federal government intervening on how elections are managed but I do think federal elections would benefit from a rational and consistent form across state lines.

Leaving this process entirely to the states was a blind spot for the Founding Fathers. They never conceived of partisan politics. Ignorant in hindsight but they thought the prevailing partisanship was more crown v. parliament being 18th century anglo creatures. They couldn't help it...they were optimists about the democratic republican project. Additionally, they never imagined that the franchise would be as widely granted as it has been since the early 20th century. The audience for who got to decide the government was much smaller until the removal of property ownership restrictions, race-based restrictions, and eventually sex-based restrictions. Hell, the way senators were selected until the late 19th century didn't even involve a direct popular vote.

This is just not the federal system the Founding Fathers imagined and that's okay. It adapted to keep up with international competition and changing domestic circumstances. The federal electoral process probably should not be invested in the states because partisanship has become a delegitimatizing force against our nation. I fear that not acting on this now will just lead to even more heightened contradictions between what normal people want and outcomes in government. When those contradictions accumulate past what people can tolerate...well that's when the bloody business actually happens not the stupid LARPs at it like last January.

I've been Black all my life and I don't know any Black people who have had their right to vote infringed upon. None. So, I know this legislation is a Trojan horse to push laws that will destroy this country. Sorry but I'm getting political because there is bullshite afoot in this legislation.

Trying to make it harder for people to vote is BS. Falling for the lie that people are making it harder to vote today than during the civil rights era and we are experiencing Jim Crow on steroids is also BS

And, states controlling their own elections works fine. No fricking way will I ever support federalizing elections. No way!

I believe the federal government should get to more explicitly define the parameters of how to execute federal elections but the states and municipalities should retain the right to conduct their elections how they see fit within existing laws that may apply.

I don't think the federal government should be putting costly, onerous requirements on how city council elections get executed. That seems rife with problems.

Voter ID racist.. ID to do everything else ok.. yea I’m not that stupid. With our open borders IDs need to be mandatory. Plain and simple. Thinking my black azz is too dumb to get an ID is racist.

And he can suck my balls for it, too. frick him.

He should focus on coaching football and hiring competent coordinators and assistant coaches and not getting his shite pushed in on the field instead of spending time writing letters supporting Democrats’ efforts to cheat in elections.

I agree with you. It's crazy that common sense like this puts some Blacks on the outs with a lot of other Blacks. No White liberal is doing any favors for Black people; never have. I'm going to stop commenting but I tell you White liberals are an evil, racist group.
