    Time to start looking up every white-ass right-wing voter in the state that has a second home or spends early November out of state this year and challenge their registration 91 days before the 2028 election.

      If a county auditor deems the challenge valid

      The article doesn’t say how South Dakota county auditors are chosen, how they make decisions or what scrutiny they are subject to but I’m not sure I like your chances here

      That would be hilarious. Just start challenging anyone and everyone with a MAGAt sticker just before the election and lock them all down in pointless bureaucracy of proving their citizenship

        It says you need some kind of documented evidence but I’m sure that’s pretty easy to gin up for a lot of people.

          Not proper but it scans as “wait till”, as “til”, “till”, and “until” are interchangeable in common English, “till” being a somewhat archaic but still often used version.

        You’re too late. ICE has already arrested people with Native American IDs, claiming they are invalid.

          ICE has arrested people with valid REAL-IDs claiming they aren’t real. They’ll do whatever they want to whoever they want.

            REAL-IDs

            Are Native American IDs not real?

            ETA: Reading this back, it looks really pas-ag. Not American, the question is sincere. I’ve never heard of Native American IDs

              REAL-ID is a new-ish standard required to obtain a driver’s license or personal ID. It requires more documentation than was previously required. Native American IDs are real, but REAL-ID is not related.

      Liberals love to pretend the law is self-enforcing and refuse to ask what role the state’s deeply racist and violent state bureaucrats, or the police and sheriff’s offices (nevermind any ICE agents operating in the state) will play.

      Incidentally, Supreme Court Justice William Renquist started his career as a poll-watcher in Arizona, screening out any who looked too Democrat.
