Title: Could democratic mayors do an end run around voter Id laws
Post by: miskie on July 13, 2012, 06:26:54 PM
Primitive has a suggestion, but it will never fly. Seems this new primitive doesn't understand the actual reasons for Democrats fighting voter ID.   DUmp link (http://www.democraticunderground.com/1002944079)

Could democratic mayors do an end run around voter Id laws

By having a government Id issuing station right next to the polling place? You know, you show up without a government Id at the poll station and have a friendly government worker issue a non drivers Id on the spot. Kind of like the apple store model. Give you A temporary Id and the then send the real one later after official verification. In elections that aren't close, the voter I'd wouldn't matter. In close elections, well let's dig out that old dusty birth certificate or hospita affidavit and upon proper certification of identification the the vote is counted.

Vote first and sort out the paper work out later.


No replies yet. And if they do add them, they most certainly won't be in support of this idea at all. cap is certainly facing a tombstone for this 'same day voter ID' suggestion.

Except in some very special cases, mayors are not empowered to issue "state" ID's.

Yep.  Never happen.  I suppose this DUllard thinks it would be okay for those same stations to issue on the spot EBT/SNAP cards, too. :mental:

I am soooo disappointed in my alma mater.

DUmmie Cap sez "Vote first, then sort out the paperwork later".


Here's a thought:
You got 115 days or so until the election.

Get off your ass and get a ****ing ID!

They're too busy coming up with reasons why the would be, too put out, to get one.  Sitting around moms basement takes a lot of time and effort and wondering where your next bag of Cheetos will come from is distressing.

They hurt.

Considering the Democrat Party's respect for the rule of law, there is no reason Democrat mayors couldn't do an end-run around state law.

As grumpy old Don admits, they cannot win on a level battle field.

DUmmies can't even find the right field.

1. You may be onto something here.

I'm thinking about Pennsylvania's law. Would there be some reason why they couldn't have I.D. issuing stations relatively close to polling places?

That won't cost the state anything at all!!!

2. Not a good idea...

Not a good idea. The repukes would be all over every ID, poring over them to make sure they aren't fake, and worse, doing background checks and possibly getting people arrested all for the sake of keeping this country out of tyrannical rethug hands. I'd much rather go the no-ID route. Keep in mind that the rethugs usually alter up to 10% of the votes anyway; so anything we can do to offset this criminal edge is kosher in my book.
