Another MNGOP amendment to take away Minnesotans’ rights

Another day, another constitutional amendment proposed by the Republicans that will take away our rights. This time, it’s our right to vote. Republican leader Kurt Zellers thinks voting should be a privilege, not a right. Now he’s co-author of a constitutional amendment that would stop some Minnesotans from voting.

I can’t help but wonder, is the MNGOP planning to do anything about jobs and the deficit? Or are they just going to propose one constitutional amendment a day that takes away Minnesotans’ rights? At this rate, the 2012 ballot is going to be completely filled with ballot measures.

Maybe the MNGOP could save us some time and redesign the ballot. Combine everything into a single measure and just ask who should be allowed to retain their rights.
