   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.

   Dem Libs can’t deal with the concept of only Legal Citizens of America vote and only vote once.

   Well, you guys can hold yer horses. The law was upheld but the effective date was pushed back.
   
   From a CNN Politics article:
   
   “Notably, the court’s ruling accepts the principle that the voter ID rules are legal. Unfortunately, the timing of the change meant that Pennsylvanians will have to wait one more election cycle before they can be sure their elections are fraud-free,”

   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 ?

   Years ago, in the Bush-Gore election one of my coworkers said she went to vote with her husband. The were married for just over 2 years. She said when she went in, her name was not on the list, but her husband’s former wife’s name was on the list. They weren’t asking for ID, so she voted under the ex-wife’s name. She said she then went to her former precinct and voted again, under her name. When I looked at her in shock, she changed her story that she voted the second time, but never denied the first vote.

   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.

    The strangest thing is that I moved from Florida about 9 years ago to Kentucky, changed my legal address, got a Ky. Driver’s license, and STILL get absentee ballots mailed to my Kentucky address from Pinellas County in Florida!
    No, I DON’T fill them out, either, but someone in the Supervisor of Elections office down there has dropped the ball.

    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.

    Yes, after the president of Diebold, the company that MADE the voting machines “GUARANTEED OHIO FOR BUSH!”

    .
    They can’t, thanks to the 19th Amendment. It’s too late to repeal it, so they’re going to have to deal with us Women voting for who we want. And if anyone tries to stop me, I’ll make a scene just by raising the volume of my voice. (One roomie compared me to a fire siren – after she tickled me silly. )
