The south won't rise again; U.S. Judge Strikes Down Texas’s Strict Photo Voter-ID Law! WHEEE!

A federal judge struck down Texas’s restrictive photo voter-identification law and Republican lawmakers’ most recent attempt at fixing it, finding neither version corrects provisions that intentionally make it harder for poor and minority citizens to vote.

“Not one of the discriminatory features” of Texas’s original photo ID law “is fully ameliorated by the terms” of the measure Texas lawmakers passed earlier this year, U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos of Corpus Christi said in the ruling Wednesday.

Furthermore, the 2017 version of the voter ID law “trades one obstacle to voting with another -- replacing the lack of qualified photo ID with an overreaching affidavit threatening severe penalties for perjury,” Ramos said.

The IDs needed to do those are the same ones required under voter ID laws. It's not that they don't have them, they have been told by their handlers that they shouldn't have to show them to vote. If the freeloaders were not going to get some handout because they wouldn't show ID, you'd see how quickly they'd whip out one they could also use to vote.
 
Alaska said the feds can have the voter roles from up here for $21 (the $1 is for the CD) ~snickers~

Our peeps were like uhm don't share our personal infos plox - so that's what our reps responded to the inquiry with. Has nothing to do with if there is fraud or not, it's about privacy in this red state.
