Union Says Photo IDs not Necessary to Vote

...not that we would expect consistency from unions or any other progressive group.

I haven't heard one rational argument yet on why ID shouldn't be required

To suggest that requiring ID in order to vote is somehow racist, has to be one of the biggest race card plays in history. It's not even a joke, it's just sad and pathetic. you have to show ID to register to vote in the first place, HOW IS IT RACIST to ask for ID at the time of election?

the whole thing is freaking ridiculous.

We can effectively end this debate by ensuring equal access to IDs and not imposing any monetary costs to obtain them if a person can't afford them.

They have to have it to register. How do they register with no ID?

But strangely unions are against secret ballots in the workplace.

As I said above, an ID will be 100% paid for by taxpayer dollars. Any cost required to get your ID will be paid for if you can't afford it.

If I was a black I would demand voter ID laws. Every illegal Mexican disenfranchises blacks and dilutes the black voice.

It cost $8 dollars to get an ID card. That's like equivalent to a pack of menthol cigarettes and a 40oz.

" Reduced Fee CA ID Card
If you meet income requirements from a government or public assistance program, you may be eligible to receive a CA ID for a reduced fee of $8."

Unions and mafia are one and the same; always have been, always will be.

This keeps things in perspective.
