Everyone who goes to the DMV to get a new or renewed driver's license will be automatically registered to vote, unless the individual chooses to opt out, the governor said.
Voting is so important, it’s a rite of passage and a symbolic, almost religious ceremony. If you just sign everybody up to do it willy-nilly, they won’t take it seriously. Better that people should have to jump through a few hoops so only the people that really care can partake.
A lot of the people who “really care” about voting don’t have any clue about the candidates, democracy, or the Constitution. They just have a lot of time on their hands and watch a lot of TV telling them what to be afraid of and who to vote for, basically straight Republican.
I’m usually pretty good at detecting sarcasm but I cannot tell based on this post.

It’s a right not a rite.
I think I spelled “rite” right, all right?
You did spell it correctly in your usage, but I believe the other commentor is saying that voting is a right, rather than a rite of passage.

I also cannot tell if this is sarcasm
