That's MISS Bloomers to you, mister!
Baloney...I'm not a republican and I'm in favor of voter ID. If you can't get elected with legal votes, you shouldn't be elected. And everyone can get an ID. As I said, I work with the homeless and even they can get ID, yeah they have to jump through hoops, but they still get it. If you aren't willing to do what it takes to get your id so you can vote, you don't deserve to have a vote.
The costs of doing business argument is half-baked when it gets cooked at all.The only way to prevent even one fraudulent vote from being cast is to make voting illegal.
Well, to put it bluntly; tough. If those who register to vote, provide valid ID and show up at the proper time and place to cast their ballot vote in higher numbers for Republicans, thats just the way it goes.
Would you feel good about a bunch of Canadians bussing themselves to Seattle to vote for Maria Cantwell or would you prefer to see her keep her Senate seat on her own?
How did they know it was you? Oh...theres a list. So if you have a list, and you say you're John Doe, you shouldn't have to prove you're John Doe? Is THAT how thin your argument is?
Anyway, if one party or the other wanted to perhaps "plant" someone or affect the election of another parties' officials, they could if there was no identifications asked for or required.
If you want to steal an election, there are far better ways to go about it than convincing a bunch of people to lie about their identity to make multiple votes and risk prison time. You could stuff a ballot box. Or, for example, you could pass laws to make it more difficult for your political opposition to vote. For example, if you knew that folks without photo ID's tend to vote Democrat, you might pass a photo ID law to cut down on the Democrat votes.
Again, that may be an inconvenient truth for democrats but it's a truth none the less. If you can't qualify to vote by mustering up an acceptable identification....yes....you have disqualified yourself. If you were going to vote for Obama, Romney or Lyndon LaRouche, if you're too incompetent to qualify yourself, you have disqualified yourself. I'm all for low hurdles but you guys are taking it to the extreme by cosigning this nonsense.
I've said this before. I have a friend who showed up to vote, only to find someone had already voted in his place. He was DENIED his vote. He said later, he should have just gone back when someone different was there and pretend to be someone else, twice to cancel out the vote of the person who stole his.
Dead people need votes too.
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.
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.
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.
Doesn't help the Republican position
Yes, disenfranchising the homeless seems an excellent plan.
Just make the voters registration card that you must have to vote and get for free...a picture ID card. Problem solved. Unless the dems want to eliminate voters registrations also....

BINGO! See govt is too stupid to solve this issue. If THAT were to happen at registration, You wouldn't even NEED to carry the card..
The poll worker could be on-line to a secure database of voter info with the photo right THERE on the screen...

It will take a lot of money to set up an ID system that passes Constitutional muster. Free ID at registration is the simplest method, but many counties, throughout the US, cannot afford to implement such a project.

Well, that is an idea but I fully think we still need a physical card. I can just see the Civil War veterans trying to get the computer to spit out a picture of someone. Usually turnout is so paltry that they would probably have time which is why we need an electorial week instead of one day with no real recourse to remedy problems, bad weather, polling place malfunctions (lights, booths, etc...). But some photo ID is a must; as long as it's freely provided to registered voters.

... civil war veterans..
No more complicated than a speak and spell. The poll log is by last name, address. Find the name -- put in the index number of the voter and up pops the pix.
If ya really havta -- call the Girl Scouts in to do the heavy lifting... THose vets would rather be playing bingo anyway...

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