Elon Musk, a technical billionaire, has once more sparked controversy by criticizing California’s most current law that forbids local governments from enforcing voter ID requirements. Following governor Gavin Newsom’s signing of the bill into law, Musk took to X ( formerly Twitter ) to voice his disapproval.
Local authorities are no longer required to present appropriate identification in order for people to cast their ballots thanks to the new rules. In his article, he expressed his concerns about election security and voter fraud, stating,” Wow, it is now unlawful to require voting Passport in California! They merely made it illegal to prevent voter fraud. The Joker is in demand”.
His reply immediately sparked a burst of actions, with some supporting his point of view and others criticizing his position.
People shared their misgivings about the new policy. One user wrote,” Democrats do n’t even hide stealing elections anymore”, while another questioned,” If you need a driver’s license to drive a car, why would n’t you need an ID to vote in an election”?
In support of Musk’s placement, a person commented,” The just cause. The only argument you may make against voting Card is that you want to be a cheater. Period”.
However, another person countered this explanation, saying,” Nah. Voting and enrollment in New Zealand do n’t require voter identification. It’s no” to lie”. It’s to make voting as visible as possible. If you call” allowing everyone who is legally able to vote, to vote as easily as they can” a form of’ cheating’, well …”.
Some people addressed the situation using humor and irony. One person quipped,” Things that are outlawed in California: Voter ID, Memes, Common feeling”, while another casually asked,” So we can vote, travel to California &, vote repeatedly”?
In the upcoming vote, Musk, who has publicly supported Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, is well known for his openness to issues in both social and political discourse.
A new legislation passed by California’s governor, Gavin Newsom, makes it illegal for local governments to require voters to present identifying when casting ballots. In cities like Huntington Beach, the policy was introduced to oppose liberal efforts.
The signing of this bill comes as a strong answer to the controversial voter ID condition that was put in place in Huntington Beach and approved by the town’s electors in March.
