Good.

Opponents say Texas has issued fewer than 300 free voter IDs since the law took effect, while Georgia has issued 2,200 under a program with more robust outreach.

Texas begain offering these FREE voter ID cards starting in JUNE 2013--over a YEAR ago. Anyone can go by and take advantage of same. There is a small fee now of $16, but they had a window of time to take advantage of the free one. Wonder why they never bothered to do so?

They used the same arguments in PA which also had a low turnout , it really makes you wonder if it's just laziness or......... I'll let you draw your own conclusions.
