California Man Arrested For Showing I.D. To Vote

LOS ANGELES, CA — A local early voting precinct was briefly thrown into disarray today, as a man was arrested for showing his I.D. to vote.

Authorities said Justin Davis arrived at the voting location at around 9:00 A.M. and presented his driver's license to horrified poll workers who immediately called the police to report the blatant act of racism.

"There's no place for this type of lawlessness in California," said Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson Sgt. Paul Marquez. "We received a tip that there was a man showing his I.D. to vote here, which is a brazen violation of California law. Our officers arrived quickly to apprehend this monster. I'm just glad we were able to get him off the street before he could show his identification to anyone else. This place just keeps getting more dangerous."

When reached for comment, California Governor Gavin Newsom cited this latest incident as a perfect example of why voter I.D. laws should never be allowed. "Just look at the harm this man caused," Newsom told reporters. "Here he is — obviously a dangerous right-wing white supremacist — walking into a polling location and showing his I.D. Such bigotry will not be tolerated on my watch. We will continue to strive to make California a place where nobody knows who is voting, whether they can legally do so, or what happens to anyone's ballot after it's been cast. That leads to free and fair elections — the California way."

At publishing time, Justin Davis had been charged with hate crimes, found guilty, and sentenced to three consecutive life sentences.

Too close to real life. This might have already happened.

I think all patriots in California should shove their ID into the face of poll workers just to force them to look away.

I’m so happy I escaped the Peoples Republic of California.

Every day I wake up and thank God for giving me the opportunity and means to get out.

Always flip out the DL at the polling place.

Worth it just to see the reactions on the people sitting at the table.

Got me initially too, really hard to do satire these days when everything comes true

What is the difference between a conspiracy theory and the truth?

A- 6 months
