In the Kansas article there are 12,000 people ...is this at all related to immigrants and legislation?
“The fact that we’ve got those 12,000 people sitting out there that may not get to vote … seems to me to be enough of an injustice to warrant somebody in the federal government taking a look at it.”
And there was an Executive Order on March 28, 2013 about Elections
Executive Order 13639: Establishment of the Presidential Commission of Election Administration

If these people don’t have IDs now, how are they living?
Yes and somehow the poor and disenfranchised seem to find $$ for a ride to the welfare office
And this is not stupidity from the _resident, either. He knows exactly what he’s saying and what goes thru the minds of the useful idiots that believe this drivel.
I can understand why. Without voter fraud, the commie ‘RATS don’t stand a chance of winning anything. If Holder does not defend voter fraud, the commie ‘RATS are out of powah.
That would be really stupid! How far did that get us in 1999 when the House impeached Clinton, but the Senate fell very far short of a 2/3rds majority to convict and remove from office? As it stands now, Republicans would have to pick up 20 Democrat senators to vote for conviction and removal from office. That won't happen! In fact if the House impeaches, I doubt any Democrats would cross the aisle to vote for removal. Faced with certain failure of the impeachment, trial, and removal process, I'm certain that some of the Senate Republicans would vote against conviction in order to save their own political prospects in the next election.
This is the third or fourth comment on that sentence from the article. Here in South Carolina we started fighting for picture ID to vote several years ago. Finally got it passed a year ago or so.
Our governor, Nikki Halley, was very pro-active in this struggle. Read her comments here. She pretty much proved that all the pissing and moaning by the RATS and the "poor people" was BS.
I'm a triage interviewer at a local food/clothing bank. We require picture ID to receive services. It is extremely rare for a "poor person" to show up without ID.
Commie Obama and his bff Boehner love it when their political opponents talk like that.
“Here are our wrists, just shackle us now for we are only going to fight if we are guaranteed that you will allow us to win.”
Have a nice life.
It did the GOP no benefit to have an unsuccessful impeachment and trial. We ended up losing control of the Senate in the 2000 election and barely scraping by in the electoral college when George W. Bush won Florida by only 537 votes out of more than 6 million cast.
