Since their butt-whooping in November, the Democrat Party has been circling the drain in a way that has never been seen before. They have no leaders, the American people have soundly rejected their ideas, and they are hemorrhaging key voter demographics. Now, they are just throwing whatever they think will bring voters back to the fold at the wall to see if it will stick. So far, they have been unsuccessful. However, one MSNBC commentator thinks he has the answer.
Elie Mystal is that special blend of racism, deception, and stupidity.

"The Nation's" Justice Correspondent and frequent MSNBC commentator Elie Mystal suggested on Monday's "Morning Joe" that the nation's voter registration laws be eliminated. Mystal stated that the only requirement that should be kept would be age, but as a big fan of pulling the race card, also suggested that this should happen because voter registration laws have veiled racist and anti-immigrant undertones. Mystal added that an expansion of voting rights would get more Democrat voters to the polls. Mystal stated:
“We could eliminate all voter registration laws. You see, when Democrats get in charge we try to protect voting rights. We don’t make voting easier. Now I’m all for voter eligibility requirements, we might disagree with what those requirements should be. But let’s say that there should be an age limit to vote, I might say 16, you might say 18, but I’m not gonna say 8. So we’re gonna agree that there should be voter eligibility requirements, but once you’re eligible, why do you have to preregister? Why is that even a thing?”
Democrats suggesting lowering the voting age is not new. In 2023, there was a push in Vermont to allow 16 and 17-year-olds to vote in municipal elections. There was even an attempt in Republican-led Missouri to lower the voting age to 16. But it was here that Mystal also proved that Democrats don't bother with little things like history, saying:
“It wasn’t a thing in this country at the founding, we didn’t have voter preregistration in 1787, we didn’t have voter preregistration in 1821, we only started having voter registration generally speaking after the Civil War. Why do you think that is? It’s because a bunch of freed African slaves were migrating up north and all of a sudden New York was like ‘we need some registration up in here.’ A bunch of immigrants from Europe, [from] Ireland and Italy were coming to New York, people were like ‘oh, we need some registration in here.'”
Elie Mystal’s outburst is textbook leftist lunacy. What Mystal really wants is to open the floodgates for fraud, and that’s exactly what the left does every time they lose control.

The real reason is that as the population of the country grew, there needed to be a way to "avoid delays, confusion, and conflict on election days." But as usual, Mystal didn't let facts get in the way of a good narrative. And because Democrats still cannot figure out that Kamala Harris was a horrible candidate and voter registration laws are racist, Mystal went on to claim that Harris lost the 2024 election because 90 million voters stayed home.
Did Elie Mystal inadvertently let the cat out of the bag? Democrats have downplayed the notion that illegal immigrants are voting in elections but have been in support of it. Dropping voter registration laws would suddenly make the millions of illegal immigrants Democrats welcomed into the country during the Biden administration eligible to vote, verifying what many suspect was the reason behind the invasion at the southern border, importing new Democrat voters. Is that where Mystal gets the 90 million number?
Of course, ending voter registration laws is not going to happen, but Democrats are desperate. This will not be the last hair-brained idea they come up with to avoid dealing with who is really to blame for their current predicament, and it will remain fun to watch.
