Kansas Governor Vetoes Election Reform, Gun Bills

https://m.theepochtimes.com/mkt_bre...-election-reform-gun-bills_3789487.html?

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly on Friday vetoed election reform legislation and a bill that would have let more people carry guns.

Kelly, a Democrat, vetoed two bills that would have changed election laws, such as requiring counties to verify signatures on early voting ballots and making it illegal for any person to knowingly alter a postmark on a mail-in ballot.

The bills were House Bill 2183, which the state House passed 80–42 and the state Senate passed 27–11, and House Bill 2332, which the state House passed 83–38 and the state Senate approved 27–11.

Kelly alleged the bills would have suppressed votes.

“Although Kansans have cast millions of ballots over the last decade, there remains no evidence of significant voter fraud in Kansas. This bill is a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist. It is designed to disenfranchise Kansans, making it difficult for them to participate in the democratic process, not to stop voter fraud,” she said in a statement.

“We also know what happens when states enact restrictive voting legislation. Hundreds of major companies across the nation have made it abundantly clear that this kind of legislation is wrong. Antagonizing the very businesses Kansas is trying to recruit is not how we continue to grow our economy.”

Kelly also vetoed another bill that would have let teenagers conceal carry guns if they had a proper permit.

Kelly said she supports the Second Amendment but that the bill would allow more guns on school grounds, which would “drive prospective students away from our schools.”

Other bills Kelly recently rejected included one that would have banned biological males from participating in women’s sports.

Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson, a Republican, accused Kelly of vetoing the bills “to placate the hard left rather than support mainstream policies supported by most Kansans.”

The election reform bills would have prevented election tampering and limited ballot harvesting while the gun bill would have offered proven gun safety programs in schools, he said in a statement.

“Each of these common-sense measures were passed by strong majorities. Republicans will respond to the governor’s veto-a-rama with a veto-over[r]ide-a-rama when we return in May,” he added.

Republicans currently hold an 84–41 majority in the state’s lower chamber and a 29–11 majority in the state Senate.

To overturn a veto, a two-thirds vote in both chambers is required. If that is achieved, a bill would be enacted into law without the governor’s signature.

How much voter fraud is necessary before it is considered "significant"?

If a law that ensures there is no vote fraud taking place amounts to voter suppression, then that tells us something about how elections are run in Kansas if you ask me.

Looks to me like the majority of Kansans wanted these 2 Bills passed. And not vetoed by some dim dhim female governor.

I keep saying it. Women, especially demorat women, do not belong in government.

It's blowback from Brownback, who was possibly the most hated governor in Kansas history. I have no doubt she'll be a one-termer unless the RINO's get in on the fix and run some retard, which is possible.

As to my reading 2332 should already be law, as it appears to have a 2/3 majority in each chamber. 2183 only missed 2/3 by two votes in the House. They ought to run it through again and knock some heads this time.

There is something to be said for passing laws with a veto proof majority.

It sure has and I wouldn't rule it out in our case, though I don't really suspect it.

Frogsnacks.

She says that Coca-Cola might not like it....so better not pass it.

That is the worst thing I have ever heard.

She should be on a rail by tonight for saying the people have to obey the CEOs and that Big Business's interests are more important than the people's.

Yes, she was before Brownback. Brownback pissed off all the JOCO soccer moms and add that with Wyandotte county being hard blue = elected democrats.

Same thing happened with the US Rep seat for that district. Soccer moms got pissed at Yoder and voted for David’s.
