But I thought being stupid and irresponsible wasn't a defense.

I believe that's very true too.

Yeah they're disenfranchising legal resident voters, to have an itinerary other than what the voters want, and it's how the Democrats stay in power.

What you think the Democratic Party wants you to know they were trying to put the same incompetence as president and vice president, as Joe Biden and Kamala Harris? And Gavin Newsom is no different.

Yes it could also be seen as a way of buying votes. Kinda like out here where they let the homeless vote.
