The findings are at odds with mainstream media and Democratic Party-peddled narratives that the laws are “racist.”
The poll, conducted by SSRS on behalf of CNN, asked Americans in April if “requiring voters to provide photo identification before they cast a ballot” would “make elections more fair.” 64 percent of people polled agreed with the statement.
Just 17 percent felt that requiring photo identification would “make elections less fair.”
It is racist to think that BIPOC’s are unable to obtain a photo ID. Besides you need government issued photo ID to obtain medical care, Alcohol/Tobacco/Firearms, the Covid vaccine and flu shots, and welfare benefits.
ID laws PROTECT our elections from fraud.
There's nothing "fair" about protection.
it's dogma.
Duh....
The left thinks that "stand your ground" laws "aren't fair" either.
Apparently — and according to Ilhan Omar — Israel attacking the people who are shooting rockets into her cities also isn't fair.
Would not make much difference 17%. There are odd folk out there.
Somali's learned pig Democrat
The left twists itself into pretzels trying to defend its stance on this. If you really believe voter ID laws are racist, you have to believe
1. Blacks and other minorities are incapable of completing the simple task of applying for an ID for whatever reason
2. The government is discriminatory and elitist in how it makes ID available to citizens
3. The use of IDs are not very prevalent in other areas of our daily lives
We all know the truth. Shame on the media for continuing this ruse.
Firstly, they don't feel any shame, only the fear and rage they experience when they lose power.
Secondly, if they did feel shame, they would gladly swallow it if it leads to them getting more power by whatever means necessary.
Typical democommie lie that bipocs are incapable of accomplishing anything without liberals helping them.
It’s not about making elections “fair”; it’s about keeping them honest.
Fair — really! I don’t give a darn if they are fair as long as they are honest and not fraudulent.
How about making elections more LEGAL ? Why didn't CNN word their poll question that way ?
Truth. You can not shame the shameless and the narcissist sickos in journalism today are incapable of introspection or shame.
As I always note, the elected Democrats who oppose Voter ID (and related laws) can ONLY be doing it for one reason - they know crap is going on, and since it favors them, they want it to continue. Most, probably, aren’t involved with the fraud, but they know of it. But Democrat voters DO NOT know of the fraud, hence they don’t see the benefit from it, and to them, Voter ID makes perfect sense.
For this reason, Democrats need to be REMOVED from political power, even if that does sometimes meaning voting for RINOs over them (and then later dealing with the RINOs).
(sorry if that bothers you ‘purists’ out there, but I prefer a country with fair elections)
