Do you support or oppose the Department of Homeland Security taking over every State's voter data? [View all]

That's what the pollsters should be asking. That's what the media should be asking. Not the generic, overly simplified "do you support voter ID" that they've been asking. Because the SAVE act gives The Department of Homeland Security control over every State's voter data. DHS will decide what ID counts and what doesn't. DHS will have the authority to purge any voter for whatever discrepancy they wish. Did you recently move but not update your driver's license to reflect your new address? Purged. Are you a woman who took her husband's name when you married? Your ID doesn't match now. Purged. DHS will be able to find any little reason they wish to purge you. Our voting rights are sacred. Our States, not the federal government, are responsible for overseeing our elections. So ask people if they are ok with this enormous overreach by a con artist who attempted to overturn an election. A con artist who is stil claiming election fraud that doesn't exist. Ask it this way and I'm certain the poll results will be drastically different.
