Minorities disenfranchised because they’re too dumb to get an ID?

Republican South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley signed into law a voter identification law yesterday

"Yesterday," since this is Saturday, May 21, the date of the article, was Friday. Governor Haley signed the bill last Wed, May 18.

Such laws reduce voter fraud to zero.

Such laws reduce voter fraud to zero.Not as long as there is still absentee balloting.

Lousy crat operatives go into nursing homes and fill out absentee ballots for the residents.

Seems to me that here in Alaska it’s a given. The nice ladies at the polling places check your name on the list and check your id card before they check you off and give you your ballot. I think it has always been that way since I first voted in Alaska in the late ‘80s. What’s the issue?

We're disenfranchised because they discriminate against honest freedom loving voters, even the poorest of the poor who somehow manage to produce a photo ID and/or registration card. And who might those people be—not democRATS.

Yes, we'll continue to fight!

That no ID is racist is BS, or I am being abused because I show my ID at least 10 times a month.

If I get cash back at the bank I must show ID new rules as Wachovia goes to Wells Fargo.

That's generally how they win elections.

This is another law that Democrats will ignore. Or, in heavily Dem districts, they'll "check" the ID but mostly pay no attention to it. I think it is fine to put something like this on the books, but it won't stop voter fraud, which mostly happens after the election is over.

Opening my big mouth just say

I SUPPORT THIS!

This country is at a junction where we need to know who is who. "Trust buy verify" someone said... :)... and this is just too BASIC of a principle.

People without scruples or honesty will take advantage of "our freedoms" to meet their distorted goals.

I have no problems with ID verification. I take no offense to authorities asking for my ID for a legitimate reasonable cause. It's just a price we all have to pay if we want to more security and accountability.

Such laws reduce voter fraud to zero.

Here in Colorado the Democrats in the legislature passed laws allowing otherwise ineligible voters to vote. Tens of thousands. Signed into law just before the 2008 elections by a Dem governor.

If it ever gets to the CO Supreme Court, the Dem controlled Supreme court will uphold the legality of illeagals voting.
