My wife would probably kill someone that did this to our grandchildren. Unless I stopped her.

For me it's my wife, "why are you paying so much?"

But not if you capitalize the first letter.

As I have posted elsewhere, I am an American, but I like the British dry humor. It's better than a the current night time talk shows here in the U.S. of A. that try to be funny.

Wasn't I responding the to war is hell comment by another poster?

Do you mean the DMV does not start the process as was allowed in the motor voter bill signed into law by President Bill Clinton on May 20, 1993?

Are you going around smelling Trump? Why in the heck would you do something like that?

What?

They are eligible to register to vote as soon as they are Naturalized. I am a little vague on this, but I think that my daughter was told she could register to vote right after she was sworn as a citizen, at what ever office we were at in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. She was very pregnant and the woman in charge of the office decided that she would swear my daughter in as a citizen before the baby was born. Daughter was sworn in with only the three of us in the room. Not in the big room with the other 50 or so other people. Granddaughter was born 5 days later, if I remember correctly. That was 8 years, 8 months ago. 😀 It was my thinking that a person had to be in the U.S. of A. 5 years before they could apply for citizenship, but if memory serves me, I was told I was wrong about that. Granddaughter told me earlier today, she asked her mom, who are you voting for? Mom said she wasn't telling her! We all vote tomorrow on November 5.

When the picture for your ID or drivers license is taken, the lady/man that takes your picture, asks you, do you want to register to vote? If you say yes, they ask which party, then they do whatever they do and print out your new ID/drivers license. The after a few days (I don't recall how many) the ID/drivers license applicant receives in the mail, a voter registration card, from >>> the voter registrars office <<<<< !! Again, have you ever, been to Pennsylvania, or any other state in the United States and applied for an ID/drivers license? Yes? No?

That was a concern of mine. Still the voter registrars office kept him on the voter roles. Again, I was there when his drivers license was issued, after he took and passed the written test (actually on a computer). When they asked my brother in law a question, I would translate into Thai for him. I also translated for my sister in law. Fortunately, for me, they did not ask any complicated questions beyond my limited Thai language skills. My sister in law was not registered to vote back then. Both are now eligible to vote, if they wish to, both now, being Naturalized U.S. citizens.

I just go to what ever window they announce. Number 574 window B2!

Actually, the reason my brother in law and his wife were getting their licenses, is because the DMV told them, I was there, that they needed to return when they had their green cards before they would be issued drivers licenses. So DMV knew that they were not U.S. citizens. As for organ donor status, I think I did check a box about that.

You are right, it isn't rocket science, but I live in Pennsylvania. I am registered to vote in Pennsylvania. You don't live in the U.S. of A. do you?

.. .and then, a few days later, the voter registrars office sends you a voter registration card to the address you gave to the DMV! You really have no clue! This, if you read it, is what I copied and pasted from one of the links! "Pennsylvania’s new system is most akin to the front-end system: The registration is automatic and takes the onus off of the voter, but is not instantaneous like in some states." You can register to vote at the DMV, if you already have a license or ID card. A person such as a high school student that has a license at 16 but not registered to vote, can go to the DMV instead of driving half an hour or more, up to Doylestown to register at the registrars office there!

You really don't know do you? You have never been to the Pennsylvania DMV have you? You just want to insult someone don't you? They ask you if you want to register to vote! If you say yes, they ask you what party you want to be registered with! There is no requirement to confirm anything through the voter registrars office! When I was first registered to vote, under the motor voter law, I had to go to Chambersburg, PA DMV as it was open on Saturday. Which Pennsylvania DMV did you go to?

That isn't Trump. It's a fake picture. Which is why I wrote this, "Oh wait, never mind, that's an AI constructed image ... Darn!"

I pass for no older than 72 or 73. The problem with that is, I am 75! 😁

Donald Trump cooking pasta. Oh wait, never mind, that's an AI constructed image ... Darn!

Do you now or have you ever been to a Pennsylvania department of motor vehicles office to apply for a drivers license or ID card? You don't need to fill out documents. " In 1993, Congress passed the National Voter Registration Act, commonly known as the “Motor Voter Act,” which required state departments of motor vehicles to provide citizens with the option to register to vote when interacting with the agency. Some states have taken that mandate a step further and applied what is known as “automatic voter registration.” According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, automatic voter registration is typically implemented in one of two ways: on the front end, where voters need to opt out of being registered when interacting with the agency; or on the back end, where voters are notified after interacting with the agency that they are being automatically registered unless they take action to opt out. Pennsylvania’s new system is most akin to the front-end system: The registration is automatic and takes the onus off of the voter, but is not instantaneous like in some states. Pennsylvania joins 23 other states and Washington, D.C., which already use some form of automatic voter registration, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Twenty of the states with automatic voter registration implemented it through legislation or by having voters approve the change." https://www.spotlightpa.org/news/2023/09/pennsylvania-automatic-voter-registration-josh-shapiro-penndot/ https://www.dmv.pa.gov/Information-Centers/Laws-Regulations/Pages/Motor-Voter-Law.aspx

I was watching c-span when he said this too! I was working at a California office of the U.S. of A. Government employer.

I did not check inequality media, but the rest he mentioned are described as or uses "progressive" in their own description!

I used to work with a guy that worked for the CIA. What did he do you ask? He said he worked as a rice kicker. What is a rice kicker you ask? That was the guy that stood inside the door of an aircraft, as it flew near a village in Vietnam (probably Laos and Cambodia too), over an open area of ground, and kicked 50 pound bags (might have been 100 pound bags) of rice out of the aircraft to feed the people in the village. Yes, the CIA was feeding indigenous people in Southeast Asia, who could not grow their own rice, because it was stolen by the heroes of the North Vietnamese Army!

War can be hell. One Radio Research unit I was with had an associated aviation company that would fly and make close range radio direction finding (ARDF) on North Vietnamese enemy radio transmitters. When they had an accurate geo coordinate fix on the transmitter, a crew member would contact a group of B52 bombers circling overhead and pass the coordinates to them. The B52 crews were supposed to wait 5 minutes before dropping their bomb loads, to allow the ARDF aircraft to fly out of the area. Several times they were right over the coordinate location and dropped bombs immediately after receiving the coordinates, nearly hitting the ARDF aircraft with 250 or 500 pound bombs! Fortunately they missed. Not so lucky was one of our aircraft was shot out of the air in the vicinity of Quan Tri by a surface to air missile (SAM) during the Spring Offensive of 1972. Sam missiles carried a 1000 pound war head. Both during the war, shortly after the SAM hit, and years later after searches were made and they could not find any part of the aircraft. Those were Beech King aircraft in the civilian field.
