Ya got that right.
I think that NC voter ID is a good thing, long term.
Short term, I see one of two things happening.
....Either the state stays at about the 50-50 split that we've seen in the past couple of elections. This is bad, IMO, because it shows the inroads Dems have made.
...Or, the state goes back to a 55-45 (ish) split. This is also bad, because it means that my vote has been worthless for the past few elections.
Hmm.. could be.
I see it more as a growing awareness in North Carolina that we don’t really care anymore what happens in federal elections and at the federal level anymore.
You should see the organized voter fraud at the black churches in Raleigh. They just wanted to get those people to vote for Obama- and that will continue, no doubt.
The office of President is a separate vote from the straight party vote here in NC. SO they have to give out ballots to the voters, to show they were to darken their circles. It is a long ballot.
It is too hard to instruct that many illiterate and lazy people to vote for the different other offices , even it they vote multiple times they only vote for the office of president,(which is how the conservatives swept local government here in NC).
So voter ID is good because NC is cleaning up our state. It is all about our State and our prosperity, and honoring the God in our State Constitution again.
I doubt anyone really cares what voter ID means to the federal GOP races anymore.
