Maybe Democrats shouldn't be counting on people who don't have photo ids to vote for them. Are you starting to get the picture that their election strategy is flawed?

In which Holder, again did not prosecute.
Yes 100,000 votes cast and not one vote for Mitt 100% Obama!
Barack Hussein Obama had a better % of votes than Saddam Hussein did in corrupt Iraqi elections!

California does not have voter ID.

We had a news story on election day of a van of illegal aliens leaving a polling place. When questioned they admitted that not only had they come there specifically to vote for Hillary, but it was the third polling place that day.

They were not arrested for voting illegally/multiple times and presumably their votes counted.

Always wondered how many other vans were going around that day doing the same thing.

I had to renew my Calif. drivers license recently. With the letter came a register to vote application. All you had to do was state that your a citizen.

These are but a few examples.
If they can bus people to the polls and to protests all over the country, couldn't they help poor people obtain IDs? They have voter registration drives all.the.freaking.time. This is just an excuse, and an insulting one at that. It assumes people are too stupid to get an ID. If voting is really that important, they have 2-4 years between elections to get an ID.

Stop it with these lies. I've been homeless before and lived in the ghetto and 90% of people in both situations had IDs. The only people that didn't were illegals and criminals running from the federal government. "Jim Crow Laws" dear lord liberals will believe anything the liberal media tells them too. Pretty soon there going to start talking about rain in racist and promotes white privilege , or something else crazy that makes no sense.

Do libraries and gas stations practice Jim Crowe too by not letting people rent books, use the PC, or buy smoked without an ID. If you don't like ID laws move to a country like Haiti where you don't need one for anything cause it's a hellhole.

Yet another one screaming about minority repression. He further insults minorities by insinuating that they aren't capable of obtaining valid IDs.

My 91 year old Dad and his 88 year old Sister are Hispanics. They both have valid IDs, including passports---and they both once had drivers licenses. And, yes, they do vote. They would be very insulted to hear that just because they were minorities, it meant that they were incapable of obtaining valid IDs.

In fact, strict voter ID requirements are just republican code-words for suppressing votes by minority-groups, that would be predominantly for democrats. The fake news sources seem to have feeding tubes into the brains of those who keep harping on the myths of illegal aliens and felons voting. The support for republican policies and values has been declining for decades, but they have been desperately struggling to pull any underhanded tricks they can, to extend the time until their inevitable demise. We need a strong opposition party to keep our nation functional, so what will take their place? Their supporters are such fools as to think they would benefit if the democratic opposition was destroyed.

Is this where Democrats claim that minorities don't know how to obey the law because criminal behavior is ingrained in them? It's odd because minorities have IDs for lots of other things, but apparently not for voting. What a coincidence. Also, I presume that when the DNC requires ID for their events, it must be code-word for them wanting to suppress minorities at their events, which would make them gigantic bigots.
