Within your own thread in the Pa forum which you have conveniently ignored it was already explained to you that the cost of the ID is $0 if you don't already have one, why are you continuing to spread this false information? As I also mentioned an ID issued by an elderly care home/retirement home will also be valid, governent ID, student ID, etc. My Grandmother of 93 years old had a valid driver license just until recently although she didn't drive for 30 years and now has valid state issued ID.

Besides the issue of getting one how can you possibly live in this society without some form of ID?

The irony is the Left/dems claim the voter can't go out and get an ID...but somehow they can find a way to make it to the voting booth on election day.

Because I'm on vacation in England. I live in south-central PA, which McCain landslided Obama in, so don't tell me about PA Republicans preventing me from voting . Nothing wrong with having picture ID, it's not a deterrent to voting, you obviously swallow HuffPo kool-aid just like everyone else at Temple, Happy Valley, and University City

It should be tried first in a low-turnout election, not in a Presidential election where problems will be magnified by the high turnout.

It is mostly. WI tried it in their most recent election. So will PA.

Yup, cuz everyone knows - only white folk have sense enough to get an ID card

If there was only one white guy in all of PA, he'd be the onlyone voting.... apparently

The DOJ used the preclearance requirements of the Voting Rights Act, which PA is not subject to, to stop the TX law from going into effect.

The Indiana ID law was ruled constitutional. That doesn't mean any state can pass any cockamamie ID law it wants.

You keep using the same old .. Everyone's Right to vote mantra when it has been shown to you that It's a False premise!

It is NOT everyone's Right to vote!

It is ONLY your Right IF the STATE says that it is and That means .. Meeting any and ALL requirements that the State requests!

BTW: It was YOUR LIBERAL PRESIDENT .. JIMMY CARTER who FIRST said that everyone should have a photo ID when they come to the polls!

Interesting, would states have the right to run ALL voters through an education test when they register to vote ?
