Wait, so his proposal is for voters to become more informed before stepping into a voting booth? Did he think this through?
If conservatives are getting crushed now wait til gen z spite-votes against anything conservative because now they have a better understanding of how democracy is supposed to work. Prime leopardsatemyface in the making.
No, his proposal is requiring approval to be able to vote. Next step is to be the one controlling the approving instance. After that they don’t need a long-term plan for voting anymore, as it’s either them being in control or a revolt.

The Supreme Court then upheld the ban as constitutional in Oregon v. Mitchell (1970), but just for federal elections.
So it sounds like we could return to literacy tests at a state or local level but I’ve never heard of that happening, so there must be separate state level bans on that practice or something. Would have to look into it to form an opinion.
Hush, millenials spent the last 2 decades getting conservatives to build a brick wall separating the world from hell with them on the other side, don’t ruin the whole effort now, they’re so close!
I think a more adequate solution would be giving all voters a break down of party promises before they make a vote, with some outside organization designated for providing mandatory checks on the party’s previous promises and whether/how they delivered them.
