This does affect our seniors as well as plenty of US citizens, not everyone has a drivers license or state issued ID card, what is everyone supposed to do? run out and buy an ID card, all the seniors that don't have them, this is just some more trouble the GOP is causing, they clearly don't want people to vote, this concerns all voters no matter what party. So anyone out there I'd let your parents know and children who can vote to go get a state issued ID card to vote, I'm all for proving citizenship, it isn't just about the illegals. I wrote this in the past, now down the road your parents will not be able to vote unless they have the state issued ID card. again & again
Voting rights advocates note that there are large numbers of people who do not have the state-issued photo ID the bill requires. According to a recent University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee study, those without state-issued photo ID who would need to obtain one under the new Voter ID bill include:
* 23 percent of Wisconsinites over the age of 65.
* 17 percent of white men and women.
* 55 percent of African American males and 49 percent of African American women.
* 46 percent of Hispanic men and 53 percent of Hispanic women.
* 78 percent of African American males age 18-24 and 66 percent of African American women age 18-24.
and when you walk into the voter area..how are they supposed to know WHO you are, and WHAT district you belong to..with out a id???
why wouldnt you have a picture id...they are FREE at you local DMV
why wouldnt you have a picture id????..they are REQUIRED for air travel......they are required for alchohol and cigarette purchaces.......even to get a library card you must show a picture id and proof of residency that you live in that libraries district
this is a fine example of how liberals commit voter FRAUD...
as they say vote early, and vote as often as you can, in as may districts as you can

Alot of seniors do not have state issued ID cards, do you think all of the seniors have state ID cards, are they really freely issued now? I think my mother has to pay every 4 yrs or so.
What if you don't smoke or drink alcohol? I don't think our seniors have the intent to commit fraud, I can just see it now, political parties driving our millions of seniors to the DMV to get their ID cards

Give us an example of a race in recent history that was swung by liberal voter fraud. I don't know of any. You can speculate, but anybody can do that. It doesn't prove anything.
I notice that you didn't mention the primary group of people that would be inconvenienced: illegal aliens.
I am a "senior" and I don't mind proving that I am eligible to vote. No one should.
Nobody would mind proving it, most seniors over 65+ do not have ID cards if they do not drive, no, illegals were not mentioned in that post from the link provided, if I would have mentioned illegals people would assume I was for illegals votings which I am not.
We can thank the employers who hire them for that.

How do they figure these folks are going to vote? Democrat or Republican?
