TN Supreme Court OKs library IDs in Memphis
The Tennessee Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that photo ID cards issued by the Memphis public library qualify as a valid form of identification in Tuesday’s election.
In a statement, state election officials said Memphis residents will be allowed to use library-issued IDs in next’s week election. The ruling applies only to voters within Shelby County.
After Tuesday’s presidential election, the high court will take up the question of whether the state’s new voter ID law is constitutional.

How many Obama voters have library cards?

I notice that the article says nothing about whether the library CHECKS a photo ID of the potential patron, in order to verify that the patron actually OWNS the name they're claiming on the photo ID they're being issued...
The stupid oozing off of this is astounding.

All the dead ones will.

Did they have to prove or affirm that they were a US citizen to get that library card?

All you need is a piece of mail with your name and address. This is outrageous.
