RFK Jr railing against 'racially rancid' voter ID laws in unearthed writings
Fox News via MSN ^ | 4/22/2024 | Brandon Gillespie

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has been a longtime opponent of requiring voters to show proof of identification to cast a ballot, a number of his resurfaced writings and interviews show.

The material reviewed by Fox News Digital was published throughout 2008 in the run-up to that year's presidential election, and included Kennedy referencing voter ID laws as "racially rancid," and claiming voter fraud was "non-existent."

....

Kennedy described voter ID laws as "racially rancid," citing thousands of voters rejected at the polls for having an expired license – or no license at all – during an unnamed previous election being "disproportionately" Black.

Kennedy wrote on another page that an Idaho requirement for newly registered voters in the state to show ID to have a mail-in ballot counted was "a new voter Block-the-Vote trick." He later described voter ID laws as "the newest scam to steal your vote," and specifically called those turned away from the polls for not being able to prove their identity as "stolen votes."

"Voter fraud is non-existent… everybody who has ever studied this – non-partisan, bi-partisan groups – [has] said that it is simply not a problem in this country,"

Good that the truth comes out, so he will only take away votes from Biden.

I’m glad this fraud is exposed.

Sure, Trump was worse on the pandemic and jabs, but RFKJ is a limited hangout there anyway.

No even vaguely conservative voter should fall for him.

It’s so tired. These phantom victims can’t buy booze or fly in an airplane if their id isn’t current. Plus since we have a fetish for every ultra-low attention voter and assorted rando simpletons voting, I’m sure the states would be happy to blanket the airwaves with ads urging people to keep their id current

I’m wondering how “the poor” are able to get an EBT card or welfare or social security benefits without identification.

Good to know that he supports voter fraud. The Stupid Party should make sure this is reported 24/7 between now and November 7th.

plus he was just an across the board anti-vaxer on EVERYTHING. He had no particular brilliant insight on the Covid vax. So this was like the proverbial broken clock...

RFK jr is not a solution to any of America’s problems... He’s a part of them.

RFK Jr also said a while back that ‘climate change' denier's should be thrown in prison.

No America, reject RFK jr out of hand.

“”””Kennedy referencing voter ID laws as “racially rancid,” and claiming voter fraud was “non-existent.” “””


Typical Democrat talking points from a typical Democrat.

Every Kennedy who grew up in the Hyannis Port compound (or the satellite compounds that grew out of it) was raised to have megalomania, no particular connection to reality, and an insatiable lust for adulation. Trust any of them with the keys to your house or the virtue of your daughters at your own risk.

Actually, no. He’s right to be against nearly all the vaxxes.

But he backed Malone and the limited hangout take on the Covid scam (e.g., that there was actually a dangerous, novel spreading virus).
