Not only does North Dakotans have a rough time accepting new refugees, they also make it tough on the people who have inhabited North Dakota for centuries before any Anglo Saxon every stepped foot into what is now North.Dakota.
================================
North Dakota law requires voters to provide an ID listing an address, but not all residents on tribal land have one. Before 2013, voters who did not have one could sign an affidavit attesting to their eligibility.
That provision was removed by state Republicans after Democrat Heidi Heitkamp narrowly claimed a U.S. Senate seat in 2012 with the help of votes cast by Native Americans, who make up five percent of the state’s population.
The rule change faces legal challenges because many living on reservations use post office boxes, not street addresses..
Native Americans not stripped of voting rights in North Dakota
Leave it to Republicans to suppress the vote of the original people who lived there, North and South Dakota got their name honoring the Dakota Sioux Tribe. Now Republicans are fucking them over.
I call BS on that, every residence in the US has a street address to comply with the 911 system, that included rural routes that formerly used RT# and Box #. It would be simple to set up street delivery anywhere in the US.
.
They have street address on reservations and no one is suppressing the vote there. This is that continual whitewashing that libs do. They did it for decades as the party of slavery and segregagtion, always whitewashing their past.
Really, have you been to a North Dakota Reservation? You are wrong.
I've been. They have addresses.
