ID requirements.

Shortening polling times.

Eliminating party line ballots.

Proposing tests.

Lengthening times required to change residency.
Nothing to do with being White or Republican and has everything to do with being American.

Find a way to let them still exercise their voice, or to pay for them to have a picture ID, and I'd have no problem with it.
Let them not vote unless legal photo I.D. and full social securitiy number.
Our voting rights are sacred and cannot be trampled on by illegal fraud, and this is what is at stake. No lame exuses but total responsibility to vote legally.

If your a recipient of SS, Welfare, Medicaid, Medicare, Food Stamps...or any other government entitlement/assistance program, you have ID.
ID, yes, but not necessarily a photo ID.

What should worry people is the same people pushing for "Voter I.D." are the same people responsible for the great Florida vote fraud of 2000: Republicans.

What should really worry people is the same people fighting against "Voter IDs" are the same people responsible for groups like ACORN who have been found guilty of voter registration fraud all over the country. They're also the same people who routinely court the illegal alien population with promises of amnesty. They're the same people who have no problem with a guy standing outside a polling place with a billy stick but don't you dare ask anyone for an ID. Maybe we should get Anthony Weiner appointed as voter ID czar, he's good with a camera.

What vote fraud?

You mean voters too dumb to figure out a butterfly ballot?

Or voters too dumb to follow the line and fill in the candidate of their choice?

Because we all know that subsequent recounts, taken by more than one media outlet, had GWB the winner.....right.....right?

Tell me how positively identifying a person's identity leads to voter fraud. I'll wait.

To many ignorant lefties fair elections are fraud because in a fair election they tend to lose.

A fair election? Like how Republicans disenfranchised thousands in Florida? So that the idiot frat boy from Texas could be selected by a conservative Supreme Court?

Anyone with a clue knows you cannot trust Republicans, and that this is just another attempt to disenfranchise, nothing else.
