Eric Hovde Says People in Nursing Homes Shouldn’t Vote

Wisconsin U.S. Senate candidate Eric Hovde (R) floated the idea that people in nursing homes should not be allowed to vote because they’re simply too close to death.

Said Hovde: “Well, if you’re in a nursing home, you only have a five, six-month life expectancy. Almost nobody in a nursing home is in a point to vote. And you had children, adult children showing up saying, ‘Who voted for my 85 or 90-year-old father or mother?’”
