I voted in North Carolina this year for the presidential election. I was extremely pleased when they asked for my ID, the woman held it in her hand, looked at my address, looked at the address on my voter registration, make sure everything was correct and then handed me a ballot.

I’m sure they’re still opportunities for fraud, but I was happy

Isn’t it racist to presume black Americans cannot handle IDs. How do they manage to board airplanes?

Right now the only persons who can fly in America without an ID are illegal migrants.

That right. On “Live PD”, mostly non-white, DemocRATS DON’T CARRY IDs, or driver’s licenses, or auto insurance... but they all have cellphones.

And the takeaway, the voter ID laws didn’t hinder turnout by blacks, browns, asians or whites and the liberal hysteria around such laws are based on falsehoods. But it took the usual woke blather to get around to that point.

the opinion highlighted the ID requirement as one of several provisions that targeted Black voters “with almost surgical precision.”

How does asking *everyone* for a photo ID target black voters "with almost surgical precision"? It's amazing how condescending these racist leftist judges are as they imagine that blacks can't come up with a photo ID like they (and everyone else) do for dozens of other activities.

“Non-whites” are too stupid to have an ID? Is that what this writer is saying?

I think this section refers to the "surprising impact":
With tallies still incomplete, the measure has invalidated the ballots of 2,169 voters who did not produce an ID card, about one in every 2,600 voters and fewer than many expected. But that number is itself a head-scratcher: Virtually all of those rejected voters could have kept their eligibility simply by signing an affidavit explaining why they had no identification.

Which raises the question of what the law actually does.

“I don’t know what it accomplishes, other than for some folks who really feel it’s needed, it’s enough,” Bob Phillips, the executive director of Common Cause North Carolina and a steadfast opponent of voter ID laws, said of the requirement.

The writer is pretending not to understand that the law prevented fraud. It is not merely to catch fraud after it happens. Read full articles here: https://archive.ph

The voter ID law should be federal.

Of the 18 states (and the District of Columbia) that Kommiemala (allegedly) "carried," 13 required no ID whatsoever*, four accepted IDs with no photo, and only two (2) required a photo ID.


*Hawaii, not shown, does NOT require an ID to vote, and yes, Hawaii (allegedly) went for Kommiemala.

Student ID? Sometimes it seems like half our college students are illegals.

Why has the RNC taken its eyes off of the 2 red area seats in CA? Pelosi’s daughter is curing ballots right now…how in the hell is that not a tall tale sign the freaking rats are going to steal those two California redistrict seats. And nobody is batting an eyelash! Lara Trump and Whatley where the hell are you?

But unlike the 2013 law, it offers voters an array of acceptable ID cards, from drivers licenses to student IDs to free state ID cards.

When I voted in Kentucky I was appalled to see that a credit card was an acceptable form of ID since I don't think it's too hard for an illegal to get a credit card.

Of course, it doesn't make much difference here because Trump won nearly 65-35.
