With pressure mounting on Republicans to try to reach some compromise on HR1, the Voting Rights Bill, House Minority leader Mitch McConnell came out today saying he’d support a bill for voting rights as long as it contained a provision that would prevent people with "pre-existing conditions" from voting in general elections. In his statement, he said that “the founding fathers did not want sick and mentally impaired people voting for our leaders. We owe it to them to honor that sentiment.”

While he was not specific about what conditions those might be he indicated that it would be up to individual states to decide. He also indicated that these did not even have to be chronic medical conditions, but could be something as simple as “excess melatonin in their skin pigmentation”.
