Some thinking along your line of thinking.. and good news
BIG
BUMP!
TX VoterID ping, good stuff!
ping!!!
I think it is in place AT LEAST for this years election.
And I suspect it will be upheld for future elections. Or am I wrong?
It was the lower court’s “stay” that was overturned. Final say on the law will come later.
It will be in effect for this election but Chris Adams says it won’t hold up in this piece and he’s pretty darn knowedgable.
I’ve been pinged to the 1982 agreement that Republicans would not prosecute or even address vote fraud for 20 years and thought it funky but I guess it was true.

Bttt

His solution that you bolded looks good, too.
As mentioned in related threads, the states have never amended the Constitution to prohibit themselves from requiring that candidate voters show a valid photo ID before being allowed to vote.
Things are finally looking up!
Texas will have a photo ID law just like Tennessee and other states that value the right to vote legally. This was a last gasp effort by the libs to undermine the legal vote in the coutrys second largest state

OK, thanks. I guess the new legislation should be crafted in the NEXT legislative session since Texas will have replaced a number of RINOS and DemocRATS with true constitutional conservatives. I’m hoping that when the new session convenes, the first order of business will be to purge that despicable Joe Strauss and the ‘RATS he has placed in leadership positions.
Can any of you Texans tell us whether conservatives will be able to overthrow the Joe Strauss RINO/’RAT alliance running the Texas House of Representatives now? I seem to remember from the primary that a decent number of RINOs lost out to conservative challengers in Texas.
I think they need to pass a new law requiring photo ID but also addressing some of Ginsburgs’s issues, like making sure people know they can get a birth certificate from two or three dollars if it’s being used to get ID to vote. Also I’m not sure why they are not allowing photo ID from state universities. Unless they can articulate a good reason I think they should allow them. And if there is some reason they are not good ID for voting, then perhaps the problem could be solved by making sure the procedures for getting the university ID as well as the information on them to be uniform across the state.
“First, the court ruled that Texas voter ID was enacted with a discriminatory intent.” How could they have proven “intent”? I cannot think of anything more difficult to prove.
I am curious as to what “paperwork” Obola presented to Columbia to get a student ID.
