Clinton to call for at least 20 days of early voting nationwide

The electorate is almost 10 times larger than it was in 1908. Our world has changed, our lifestyles have changed, our ways of travelling and doing work have changed, and now it is time for our method of electioneering to change as well.
Non-sequitur. None of this leads to this conclusion.

Somehow, we are to believe that voting on election day and/or with simple absentee ballots was perfectly legitimate, practical and possible 150 years ago, but now, with all the advancements we have in virtually every aspect of our lives, we can't manage it?

She's entitled to her opinion, but it's up to the States to run their elections.

Nope...NVRA and HAVA.

You do understand that HAVA is voluntary, right? And the NVRA say nothing about early voting.

No HAVA is not voluntary and it doesn't matter if the NVRA said anything about early voting. You made a claim, I debunked it. The Feds do have some say in Election Matters as both HAVA and the NVRA prove.

Wrong again, all states have to do on HAVA is tell the feds to keep their money and they can do what they want. As for the feds have a say, it's becoming more limited all the time as they courts tell them to pound sand.
 
Clinton to call for at least 20 days of early voting nationwide - The Washington Post

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton plans to call for an early voting period of at least 20 days in every state.

Clinton will call for that standard in remarks Thursday in Texas about voting rights, her campaign said. She will also criticize what her campaign calls deliberate restrictions on voting in several states, including Texas.

The former secretary of state's address at historically-black Texas Southern University in Houston comes as Democrats pursue legal challenges to voting rule changes approved by Republican legislatures in several states.

Clinton and her allies claim the changes are aimed at narrowing the electorate in ways that benefit Republicans.

“This is, I think, a moment when we should be expanding the franchise,” Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta said in an interview. “What we see in state after state is this effort by conservatives to restrict the right to vote.”


Once again, Clinton acts, which will force the GOP to react.

This has been going on for quite a while, now.

Discuss. Is this a good idea, or a bad one?

Democratic candidate Clinton is talking about a 20-day early voting period NATIONALLY.
why not start tomorrow?

Why can't everyday be Election Day ?
next thing u know, Hillary will demand that anyone who cant speak english be allowed to vote, so long as they vote for me.
if that were true a lot of Sothern republicans would be left out.

You need to re-read HAVA, amigo.

Specifically, it established minimum election administration standards for states and units of local government with responsibility for the administration of federal elections and for other purposes related to the bill. [...]


The law in general created minimum requirements for voter ID in each state, allowed states to set provisional ballot laws and gave funds to states to replace outdated voting equipment and registration systems. The law also mandated that state election authorities coordinated with agencies like the Social Security Administration and at the state level with their Departments of Transportation, Corrections and Health and Human Services to have the most accurate voter registration list possible.[2][3]
HAVA requires that either a driver's license, the last four digits of a social security number or a voter ID be required for voting.[2][3]

State plan and reporting[edit]
To be eligible for federal funding, states must submit a plan describing how payments will be used and distributed, provisions for voter education and poll worker training, how to adopt voting system guidelines, performance measures to determine success (including goals, timetables, responsibilities, and criteria), administrative complaint procedures, and the committee who helped develop the state plan.

HAVA mandates that all states and localities upgrade many aspects of their election procedures, including their voting machines, registration processes and poll worker training. The specifics of implementation have been left up to each state, which allows for varying interpretations of the Federal law.

Each year the state receives federal funding they must submit a report to the EAC detailing a list of expenditures, the number of and types of voting equipment obtained with the funds, and an analysis and description of the activities funded.

Guess you missed "drivers license" which is required to have a photo and the fact that it's left up to the States to determine how they will implement the law. Tell me how do you know the ID belongs to the person holding it without a photo?
