#1 I feel that the ballots should be in english only. So as to understand what the issues are and know what's going on. If voters don't understand english they miss out on alot of the necessary information.
There should be ID checks done, (not just showing a utility bill), and with the age level needing to be 18 or older; being age 18 used to mean that by now you had a high school education. To understand what's going on.
Scary with proper ID's not being necessary, nor being educated, or that it isn't necessary to be able to read!
Many illegals I'm finding, don't know how to read. Having a 2nd or 3rd grade education level seems to be commonplace.
Voting is a right. I don't want to see discrimination, but this country is going to go down the tubes if folks are allowed to vote on issues that don't know what the f*ck is going on.

#2 and yes, I feel alot of illegals are going to be able to vote, not needing the proper ID to do so.

#4 Coming to this country illegally, milking the systems of healthcare, education etc, sure is crummy character in my book.
