In fact, it just happened today, July 1, 2014.
Today, Governor Pat Quinn (D), with the aid of Illinois State House Speaker, Michael Madigan, (D), SIGNED INTO LAW what they are referring to as a voting rights bill. To make this simple I'm going to present just the bullet points. Under this new law:
- The early voting time is extended
- The mail-in vote deadline is extended
- Any voter now can register to vote and vote ON ELECTION DAY
- NO IDENTIFICATION WILL BE NEEDED TO BOTH REGISTER AND VOTE.
But this is the real clincher:
- This law IS FOR THIS ELECTION ONLY!
Meaning that after November 4, 2014 this law then dissolves, it becomes null and void.
However I have to say, this is our own fault. We as citizens of Illinois have become so complacent, have become so use to the political corruption here that we have allowed this to happen. And the politicians now know this. Now they feel so at liberty to do as they please. They don't even have to be covert about it any more. They can be open about it and do it right in front of our faces.
I also find it no coincidence of a survey that I read today. It showed the top ten states in the country where a major percentage of its citizens would like to move away from.
Illinois ranked #1.
Be warned you other 49 states, this could be coming to a state capital near you.
