Former Attorney General Loretta Lynch recently asserted that Voter ID laws are designed to intimidate and scare people away from the [political] process. Lynch's perspectivewhich represents that of the Democratic Party as a wholes founded on the premise that the incidence of voter fraud is extremely rare, and that initiatives like Voter ID requirements, which have been put in place in 34 states, are unnecessary and constitute a form of vote suppression. A related argument holds that some demographic subgroups of the U.S. populationparticularly nonwhite and low-income peopleare considerably less likely to hold government-issued forms of identification than are their white, more affluent counterparts. Thus, say the critics, Voter ID laws discriminate against these subgroups and function as a modern-day equivalent of poll taxes that have the effect of disenfranchising certain groups.
The notion that voter fraud is an uncommon occurrence can be traced most significantly to Citizens Without Proof, a November 2006 report produced by the George Soros-funded Brennan Center for Justice, which stated that fraud by individual voters is both irrational [because perpetrators risk penalties of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine] and extremely rare.

“Loretta Lynch Calls Voter ID Laws Racist”.
But arguing that blacks and minorities are too stupid to get ID’s compared to whites isn’t.
The next time I have to show a picture ID to check into a hotel room, rent a car, enter into a secure building, or use a credit card, I will yell “Racist!”
Come on Loretta,
It’s a federal election that will affect the nation as a whole. Not just another routine traffic stop.
Anyways,
Give her a break, it’s the best she can do to resist the continued RED SURGE (for the 5th election cycle)that has been flowing since 2010.
She has suffered the constant loss of democrat colleagues 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018? for almost a decade. They (Loretta incl.) have spent 10 years,speaking through the democratic Ouija board, about the death of the Republican Party, Conservatism and Capitalism.
Wow!
Talk about paranormal activities
“I Hear Democrats”
whispering through the white noise
of liberal desperation....
yeah that so true. Is obviously none of the things she says it is so why is she and every other leftist operative always against voter id? The only reason it can be is they are cheating and committing fraud and this makes it harder.
Lynch is racist and always has been
She is Black for a living
Minorities get government IDs just like white people do. Race has nothing to do with it except in the pea brain inside Loretta Lynch’s melon head. I’m sick of these assholes.
here is what racists Cal does. If you are 65 or older the DMV will give you an ID card for free.

Well there are two possibilities here;
1) They actually think minorities are intimidated by having to get (or show) an ID
2) They want to provide legal and social cover for vote fraud by opposing voter ID laws using whatever rhetoric they can.
You decide.
So are driving laws. Why do you need an ID to drive?
Gravity has also been identified as racist, for disproportionally weighing down minorities with a greater prevalence of obesity.
Gravity is now added to the list of racist phenomena, which of course also includes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
All Loretta Lynch has done is prove she is a democrat. They are the only ones who are fighting against voter ID for obvious reasons. Then they cannot cheat.
Then so are IDs for purchasing guns.
gee. I always thought Voter ID was to ensure each person had a equal and fair vote within a community of people eligible to vote. Silly me.
