Voter ID Now The Law In Pa

The State House okayed the changes the Senate made to HB 934 -- the rational, reasonable bill requiring voters present identification albeit not necessarily photo identification -- yesterday, March 15, and Gov. Tom Corbett signed it into law a few hours later.

The Democrats strongly fought the bill and are pledging legal challenges to it.

Corbett signed it. It’s now the law.

Corbett signed it. It’s now the law.

Until it isn't the law.

During the 2010 election I was handing out campaign materials outside a polling place in NE Philly. A couple of guys in union jackets came out and walked past me and I could hear one guy asking the other where they were going next.

The Philly papers have been full of the usual teeth-gnashing about how rare vote fraud is. No, it is quite commonplace - what is rare is to actually catch it. Now it can be blocked and the dead can rest in peace on Election Day.

It took several years in court before ours came into effect in Michigan.

[SueRae]

About time.

Now waiting for Holder’s people in 3....2.....1..

Voter ID in PA

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.

Although this article is not directly about Wisconsin, it discusses Voter ID laws in other states. Apparently Voter ID is under attack across this country by the usual suspects.

[Tribune7]

I know the courts overturned one in Texas but if Michigan won there is precedence.

I'm not sure how closely Pa's law follows Michigan's but it allows for acceptance of non-photo ID and provisional ballots.

[cripplecreek]

Yours sounds pretty similar to ours. They have to ask but you don’t have to show.

However if you don’t show an ID the ballot becomes a provisional ballot and may not be counted.

It is “the law” until some freakin’ federal judge overturns it. Just like every other state where it has become law.

The feds are everywhere, time for them to go.

Philly has a voter turnout around 93%

Now a lot of people are not going to leave their grave sites in November and the turnout should approach the national average of about 36-38%

.

[DownInFlames]

Is it my imagination, or are the states in open revolt against Bammy and his gang of thugs.

[cripplecreek]

I've started calling democrats "walkers". It irritates the heck out of my liberal relatives to be compared to zombies.

[LibFreeUSA]

How will this affect the 100% Obama-supporting voting districts in Phila? How will this be enforced? How do we know they won’t turn a blind eye in asking for the ID?

[dirtboy]

GOP poll watchers.

[ScottinVA]

The Dems, courts and UN — working in concert — will be on this like flies on sh*t. Just watch.

Holder challenge coming in 3-2-1.....

[Puppage]

Corbett signed it. It’s now the law.

Until a liberal judge overturns it.

[Vigilanteman]

Good questions, all. The vote fraud enabling machine is going to have their work cut out for them in Pennsylvania. Even a majority of the Democrat rank and file voters are supportive of this law. Excluding those in Philadelphia, of course.
