Ah, mrclose, I was responding to the post below which you have now interjected yourself in.....and for what reason may I ask. And yes I do read and have a high compression level, thank you. I'm not sure why you are trying to insult me though. Maybe you could enlighten me on that.

But college kids have ID yet that's not acceptable
ID's from colleges and Universities are acceptable in PA, the issue there is the ID's need an expiration and some don't in which case they would have to go and get a PA ID.

You want people to show ID when they vote yet you have to approve what ID that is because maybe the ID they have is just not good enough for you
I answered you!
You either didn't read the post .. didn't comprehend the post or .. just ignored it!
BTW: I bold-ed comprehend for a reason.

This is the third court ruling in the past three days out of the federal courts striking down Republican voter laws. A federal panel on Wednesday blocked a Florida registration measure from continuing in effect. South Carolina's strict photo ID law is on trial in front of another three-judge panel in the same federal courthouse. A court ruling in the South Carolina case is expected in time for the November election.
An appeal is likely in the Texas case, but there is no guarantee that the U.S. Supreme Court is going to want to get involved in this case, or any of these voting rights case, before the election. On the other hand, the justices in 2008 said that states could impose some voter identification restrictions.
Is this really surprising? Texas would vote Republican without this, but it is not too far away from being blue come November. I think that the Republicans who are in control are scared and are doing their best so in case of Hispanics coming out in large numbers and voting Democratic they are securing their state to be red. There is also the fact that those who are responsible for implementing these programs are doing so with racial undertones.
