"US Election Integrity Plan" in Colorado is a complete fraud!

A group of Right Wing Election fraud conspiracy theorists and tRump supporters in Colorado calling themselves the "US Election Integrity Plan" have been going door to door in areas in Colorado with larger minority populations and asking questions which they have no right to ask. They are not Officials, they are just a bunch of idiots, but they are also armed and some wear fake badges and say they are from "The County"! This is a blatant attempt at voter intimidation as they are even taking pictures of the residents and their homes.

Some of the questions being asked:

Who did you vote for in the 2020 Election?
Where were you born?
Are you a registered voter?
Have you committed voter fraud?

There is only one answer to all of this:

Do you like my shotgun?

This group is also being sued by civil and voting rights groups who are seeking to invoke the KKK Act to stop them.

americans are weird... a lot of those problems with voting, illegal immigration etc could be easily solved by just making mandatory id cards like in almost every civilized country

@Strawberrry I don't disagree but if we were to go that route, the card would have to be free, easily obtainable and provided by the Government, many States require Identification that cost quite a bit and not all can afford them or afford the long distances to travel to get them. tbh, this is a situation where these people are attempting to impersonate and they should simply be arrested and charged.
@spjennifer no idea about the infrastructure in the usa... is it really that bad ? like every small village that has its own mayor can hand them out here and its a small fee of 16€ for an id that lasts 10 years... and even that is free for people who get social benefits..

it baffles me how the usa put people on the moon but struggles with simple day to day organisation

@Strawberrry Not in the more populous and wealthier States but there are places where the only place they could get ID is in the State Capitol which can be 150-200+ Miles away and some don't have cars even. America is a wealthy Country but it also has some very poor people who are just barely surviving even though they are Citizens who have the right to vote...

@Strawberrry In Oregon, a state identification card costs $44.50. That is just the price of an identification card. If you also wish that card to allow you the privilege of driving, that costs an additional $23, for a total of $67.50. That amounts to €61.21 for the privilege of driving. Additionally, drivers are legally required to maintain insurance, which could cost an additional $80 per month or more. That is why, whenever someone suggests that a state issued identification card is sufficient to use as a voting identification card, my feathers become ruffled, both figuratively and literally.

The card would have to be issued separately from the state identification card, as is stated above, at no cost to the bearer, in addition to being delivered to the bearer, in order for it to be fair for everyone.

The problem is not our crumbling infrastructure, so much as bureaucratic greed.

@Strawberrry But Americans are too "Free" to be identified.😷
@CorvusBlackthorne A national ID card should be issued to all residents free of charge.
