 do you think there should be a us citizen check box voters should have to check on ballots to confirm their citizenship  yes no undecided no box for citizenship i do not believe the state should require a box for citizenship at the election polls for four reasons first a voter is required to declare whether he is a citizen at the time he registers to vote requiring a person to declare whether he or she is a citizen at the ballot box is superfluous a waste of resources and may confuse voters second it is intellectually dishonest for republicans and i am a lifelong republican to bristle at any attempt to interfere with or limit our constitutional right to bear arms but support limitations or interferences with any citizens right to vote a voter has proved his or her citizenship prior to the election the state should not interfere or ask again third it is a waste of government resources to pursue a measure that purports to lessen voter fraud the secretary of state s own investigation found almost no voter fraud in michigan with respect to fraudulent identification 2 cases moreover there is no statical or verifiable evidence that asking an individual if they are a citizen at the ballot box reduces the almost nonexistent cases of voter identity fraud additionally the real voter fraud is that committed by the likes of rep thad mccotter and his cronies who falsified nomination petitions we as defenders of the constitution should have outrage at mccotter one of our own trying to game the system finally republicans should take the moral high ground and defend every citizens right to vote free of government interference and castigate those that would interfere abuse or game this sacred right michael king dewitt citizenship check box  in no way can this confirm that a person is a us citizen simply by checking a box please  citizenship scheck off box should be a no brainer if you are not a citizen you are not qualified to vote in any american election what in the world would be wrong with knowing before you vote that you qualify ida s
