If you went to public school, it was a long time ago.

No partial credit, pass or fail. If you fail, you're not allowed to vote for the next two election Cycles. If you fail to test 2x you lose the right to vote forever

Crap! I’m going to have to forfeit my citizenship and move.
Oh BTW I was in the Electoral College marching band. Skin flute if you were wondering.

Cool concept but that’s not how this country works and shouldn’t work. It’s always a good time when the things you think are a good idea become laws...until laws are made that don’t go in line with your ideas.

Nationally, our education system is absolute shit. The overwhelming majority of Americans can’t name their governor or mayor. You know, the two people who have the greatest effect on their livelihoods...

Hell, we can’t even get a nationwide mandated voter ID law in place. That said, get more than ten people in a room and it will take at least five attempts for them to count off. I couldn’t imagine what kind of clusterfuck would come from requiring a screener

Did you check the scoring? There is no fail. Oh, that was sarcasm. Good joke!

Catholic Schools, as long as you could tolerate the Nuns beating the shit out of you, you actually got an education (or as I like to say, "If you can do long division, we can be friends"). They stopped teaching Civics and American History in the Public Schools about 30 years ago.

I have simpler way. Show up to polls, show valid I.D card, vote.

I agree. The identification should be necessary simply to get into the test.
