Wonder what the political landscape would look like?

If...
-
Voting for federal elections must be done in person, with ID. Could be absentee, but must be done in person.
-
A 6th grade level literacy test was enforced. Or even a third grade level.
-
When registering to vote, the prospective voter must pass a basic, multiple choice test on how the Federal government functions. Stuff like the three branches of government, what does SCOTUS do, etc.
Wonder what the Federal government would look like with those simple rules for voting?
“Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”
Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

Hell... there's probably millions of natural born Americans that could not pass the test that is given to BECOME an American citizen.
We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on. -

You chaps want to make it more difficult to vote than to buy a firearm.
What could possibly go wrong with that plan?
The potential problem with only allowing people who are educated to vote, is when somebody a lot more educated than you are starts making the decisions....

I’m still waiting for someone to show me the citizen who can’t vote because of current law.
