Under Pennsylvania's new voter ID law, various other forms of photo identification will be accepted at voting places in November, including U.S. passports, student identification cards with expiration dates, current military identification, and ID cards issued to government employees.
But for most voters, the Pennsylvania driver's license is the standard photo ID. The disclosure that 9 percent of the state's registered voters don't have one - or an alternative, nondriver PennDot photo ID - provides a clearer picture of the hurdle set up by the state's new voter ID requirement.
Republican lawmakers pushed the bill through the legislature in March and it was signed into law by Gov. Corbett, over protests from Democrats that the measure would disenfranchise thousands of voters, disproportionately affecting those without driver's licenses - the poor, the elderly, and the young.
House Republican leader Mike Turzai acknowledged the law's political implications at a Republican State Committee meeting last month.
"Voter ID - which is going to allow Gov. Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania - done," Turzai told the crowd, which burst into applause, as he listed legislative accomplishments under GOP control.
The law still faces a legal challenge as a possible violation of the state constitution. Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson scheduled a July 25 hearing and his decision is likely to reach the state Supreme Court before November.

You know what? IF Romney deserved to win, he would be able to do so without having shit like that done on his behalf.
Truly.

That amounts to a poll tax! And poll taxes have been roundly refuted by the courts.Truly.

Identification Card (initial) $13.50
You're disgusted over $13.50
and that people should prove they have the legal right to vote in my state.
The whole voter I.D. argument from the Right is a solution looking for a problem. There just isn't the rampant voter fraud happening.
And when the Republicans applaud this purely political move that erodes rights, they are just keeping the consistency they pride themselves on.
No other ideology consistently erodes rights the way the modern Conservative ideology does.
