    I heard they"re having a contest in Philly to see who can vote the most times this election day.

    Of course the Pennsylvania Secretary is taking his sweet time getting the word out that the laws was set aside. Presumably so voters will still think the law is still in effect and not show up on Nov 6.

    onguard, legal citizens of America CAN vote, and they only DO vote once. If you can find any evidence to the contrary, I’d like to see it — even the crooks in the Pennsylvania GOP couldn’t find one case. I read the papers, so I know that the Pennsylvania voter suppression law would have removed around 10% of Pennsylvania voters from the voting rolls. Destroying democracy for 10% of the legal population is not a good trade-off for preventing zero voter fraud. The only motive was to deny likely-Democratic voters their rights as Americans.

    The voter ID laws are nothing more than a disguised poll tax. It’s the 21st century & the GOP is trying to drag us back to the19th century. What’s next, trying to suppress women voting ?

    And you Cons can’t deal with the fact that there are very few illegal voters. After due process, Florida found only 198 registered voters that the state could not document as citizens who had the right to vote. This was after trying to purge tens of thousands from the rolls.

    And that is an example of the most common form of voter fraud – an American citizen using some subterfuge to vote twice. One common tactic is to be registered in both the main residence and the vacation home, then vote by absentee ballot.

    Doesn’t much matter unless the candidate won by one vote. Now take the computer fraud in Ohio where in some counties there were more votes for Bush than there were people living there.-C’mon, Radish, you know it’s okay if a Republican does it.

    Since both Democrats AND Republicans are treated the same by these voter fraud laws, you would think it would be embarrassing to admit that only Democrats can’t figure out how to meet such a minimal standard.

    I’m still waiting for the collective mind to explain how an ID law will keep American citizens from being able to vote. I will GLADLY pay for it in my taxes if some folks cannot get picture ID if it’s for some financial reason. People have to show picture ID’s for LOTS of reasons that are less important than voting for people who influence every moment of our LIVES, and yet, the collective mind goes absolutely bonkers when anyone suggests that folks ought to have one when they go to the polls to vote.

    Yeah, and when Gov. Walker’s opponent got 119% of the vote in Madison during the Wisconsin recall. It matters, and even if fraud wasn’t a huge problem, you’d think that a responsible American citizen would think that there ought to be ways to keep it from happening. When the collective mind doesn’t want to keep it from happening, it makes me think that it wants the status quo for partisan reasons.

    What do you know what I am “justifying?” You are just trying to change the subject, and your reply doesn’t in any way justify calling ID voting laws “attempts to suppress minorities.” The above comic assumes that two evil White conservatives want to cut a Black woman’s arm off. Explain to me how requiring people to have a picture ID when they vote (something that is required EVERY DAY in many essential personal duties for practically everyone) is an evil conspiracy to keep minorities away from the election polls. I know you can’t explain it, because it is COMPLETE BS.
