You should really read through the court decisions rather than chanting "the liberals", a little education goes a long way.


Here's the short story, all the changes were to address nonexistent voter fraud


Your welcome.

The North Carolina ruling tossed out the state’s requirement that voters present photo identification at the polls and restored voters’ ability to register on Election Day, to register before reaching the 18-year-old voting age, and to cast early ballots, provisions the law had fully or partly eliminated.

This will also set a precedent and help overturn all these bogus attempts by other Republican led States to disenfranchise blacks and minorities.

Another nail in Donald and the repubs coffin and rightly so given their shameful and bigoted motivation to deny blacks and other minorities the right to vote. Their only hope in a diversifying country is to make it difficult for those that won't vote for them to vote, and now that has been taken away from them in a resounding fashion.

Say hello to the beginning of the end for the Repubs and their broken and bigoted party.
This whole law went into effect while we were living there. They are all sorts of angry because they have to show some form of ID at voting facilities. That's it. It's nothing against race or anything like that. Honestly I think it is absolutely absurd to not have to show an ID. That is a way to keep things on the up and up.
TN has that law for quite a while so why is this such an issue?

I saw someone talking about this today one of the cable news channels. I deleted those two posts because I am too angry to be discussing this online. I wanted to ask the man a question? He stated that early voting made a big difference in the black vote which made no sense to me. We still had early voting. I think the I. D. part is what will make the biggest difference.

I heard rumors after the last presidential election of a man who when to work the day after the election and bragged to his co-workers that he had voted 6 times. It wouldn't do any good to report him because without I. D. it could not be proven. I didn't know the person who was talking and only overheard the conversation. If it is so hard for the voters to get an I. D. maybe we can start fingerprinting them and compare the fingerprints.

There is no way this ruling is fair to the people of this state who play by the rules and vote only once.

Or another way would be to set up cameras so one could view the early voting lines and see how many people are there more than one day.

There has to be a way to stop this voter fraud we all know is happening and our legislature has been denied the right to stop it. Denying voter fraud exists is not a solution. That fixes nothing and is not true.

So...how does asking for photo ID in order to vote amount to "voter suppression"? Do tell in detail.

How do you know voter fraud is happening, based on a thorough investigation or just guessing.


The election boards disagree with you. Do you honestly believe that NC was focused on voter fraud, they implemented these rule changes right after that had the demographics in hand.
