The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or SAVE America Act, addresses the most important issue plaguing American elections—the absence of a nationwide requirement that voters show ID before casting a ballot.
A campaign that started in California in 2006 has reached Richmond, and it's gunning for the Electoral College. Bills passed by Virginia's House and Senate would add the Commonwealth to the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, a scheme that would force Virginia to ignore its own voters and hand its presidential electors to whoever wins a nationwide popularity contest. There's no official national vote total, it likely violates the Constitution's Compact Clause, and every single state that's signed on is blue. Here's why Gov. Spanberger should reject it.
The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear Watson v. Republican National Committee, a case that could redefine what “Election Day” means nationwide. At stake is whether ballots must be received by Election Day or may arrive afterward — a decision with major implications for election law, voter confidence, and the uniformity of federal elections.
The American Constitutional Rights Union has filed an amicus curiae brief with the United States Supreme Court in Watson v. Republican National Committee (No. 24-1260), joining the Public Interest Legal Foundation in support of the Respondents. The case centers on a straightforward but consequential question: does federal law require that ballots be received by Election Day? The Mississippi Secretary of State argues states can extend ballot receipt deadlines beyond Election Day. The Respondents, and ACRU, say no.
The members of Congress of both parties who voted for the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 — Motor-Voter — are largely to blame for both noncitizen voting’s affront to American democracy and for the lives upended when noncitizens believing themselves eligible to vote have been caught voting illegally.

Wisconsin officials charged with helping seniors cast a ballot in 2024 may have illegally registered coma patients to vote in a West Allis nursing home, according to a complaint by the Center for Vulnerable Voters, a civil rights watchdog.
Going forward, starting Wednesday, November 6, 2024, America needs an informed electorate. We must move beyond personalities and individuals and study issues and policies. I am not asking for Americans to become political geeks, but uninformed voters become easily manipulated and become disenfranchised due to a lack of basic acumen on Civics and policies. We can no longer afford to be the Country that listens to commercials and so-called famous personalities.
A recent poll released by the bipartisan Democracy Defense Project found that 91% of Ohio voters are confident that our votes will be accurately cast and counted in the 2024 elections.
