The Push For 10,000 Latino Voters At The Iowa Caucuses

3. EXCELLENT! Voting in the United States isn't a simple thing. It's darn difficult if you don't know

how to navigate the pitfalls that Republicans have systematically put in voters' path to the voting booths.

California has gone a long way in order to make it easier, just like having to do jury duty - they get their info from people who are registered to vote and send you those stupid but daunting jury cards with the warning that you'll be penalized if you ignore it.

Doing jury duty is difficult for a lot of people because it takes them away from work and hard dollars to sit in on cases for $15 bucks a day with $0.34 cents per mile driven compensation. If you just make minimum wage and have to live off of it, that's gonna hurt big time.

So they should do the same for voting: send a card that they have to call in and 'register' that they've received the card, and that they must vote in whatever election is coming up.

But no. They go all out for jury duty - that takes money out of your pocket - but they go completely silent on your civic duty to vote for the gov't you want. And that is, in my opinion, far more important with regard to exercising and honoring our civic duties as American citizens than stupid jury duty.
