Truthmatters' " GOP making it difficult to vote" thread.

This is how ID laws keep poor prople from voting

It's her responsibility to keep her legal documents current.

If she can't vote because she does not have the proper documentation to get an ID then it's her fault and hers alone.

Truthdoesn'tmatter fails again. Typical.

Why doesn't she just bring in the correct identification?

Problem solved.

which would be what?

So applying the law equally to all is tantamount to hate now?

Tell her to come to Chicago. They will let her vote 3 or 4 times. Our motto, "Vote early and vote often."

A birth certificate would be a start. In fact, that's the only one needed. Had she just provided her birth certificate, she would have gotten the ID no problem.

If she has a legal birth certificate, she can get an ID and she can vote. Same is true for all of us. How is that hating?

It's called being personally respondsiblitiy, If she wants to vote get the correct documents. But why is it now a big issue to vote? Didn't she vote last year? or years in the past?

What would be the correct identification? Are you saying she should forge her BC?!?!

Suppressing the Vote -- In These Times



Genevieve Winslow, an 83-year-old widow in frail health living with her son Jeffrey in Milwaukee, Wis., spent 90 minutes at a DMV office in July and came away exasperated. “She came with her Social Security card in the name of Genevieve, her Medicare card in the name of Genevieve, a certified copy of her marriage certificate from 1948 in the name of Genevieve … and perhaps most important, an expired passport issued in 1987 in the name of Genevieve,” recounts her son. But because her birth certificate featured the Polish version of her name, she walked away without a new ID.

“The easiest thing for mom would be to get a new passport, which would be quite expensive [$135]. But we live on her Social Security payment,” Jeffrey Winslow says. “It’s not a happy situation, but she’s determined for them not to take away her vote.”

Why'd she wait 83 years to get this fixed?

Perhaps she should have used the correct spelling on all the other documents?

Anyhoo... this happens to like what, 2 people a year?

Who cares.

She did provide a BC. It just didn't have the Angicized form of her name. How can that be reconciled, except that she had all those other forms of identification proving it had been sufficient in the past?

Why forge anything? The OP said she has her birth certificate. She's the one that changed her name after her birth.

83 and no driver's license ?

Good.

She doesn't need one to vote anyhow - dumb ass.

She can use any photo ID - most states have them available for free - official identification cards - for dumbfucks like you who don't carry driver's licenses.

The article says she used everything but her birth certificate.

It wasn't stripped from her.

Stop lying, you are embarassing yourself beyond your normal level.

This.

My mom was born in a house in 1941 yet still managed to obtain a birth certificate and proper identification.
