According to many comments, the US government DOES use SQL, and Musk is not understanding much what's going on.

There are already attempts to make it so your name has to match your birth certificate in order to vote.

Targets both trans rights and women's rights, simultaneously.

But wouldn't that target Trump since his original name was Drumpf or something?

I hope they clash hard over it

Oh, great. So it's also another regressive push towards recreating the mysognist shithole decades where married women were treated as the property of their husbands. What's next, giving married men in heterosexual relationships two votes?
