Federal Appeals Court Upholds Most of Arizona Voter ID Law
« on: April 17, 2012, 04:29:02 PM »
SHOCKED I am!
The 9th Circus of California!
Quote
In a ruling which demonstrated just how radical is the Obama Administration’s opposition to Voter ID laws, the very liberal U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld Arizona’s voter-approved 2004 law requiring voters to show proof of citizenship before receiving a ballot – a big victory in the battle against voter fraud in the runup to the November elections.

The Appeals Court mostly shot down the challenges to the law, which had itself been upheld in Arizona U.S. District Court. Arizona can demand to see certain forms of identification that proves citizenship, the court ruled.

And if someone doesn’t have those forms of ID, paying the fees to obtain the ID isn’t the same as a “poll tax.”

With the way Obama is, it wouldn't surprise me if he tries to take it further. He needs the illegal vote to get elected. And Arizona and Texas is where most will be coming from.

However, the court also ruled that Arizona must not refuse federal voter registration forms, which work on the honor system by asking applicants to check a box indicating whether they’re U.S. citizens.

No problem.  They can register to vote without ID, they just can't get a ballot on election day.

Excellent job Mackelrose. Maybe, and finally some sane reform of the out of control illegal immigration.

Oh, he'll be there.  Comrade Obama will have need of a laundry list of Marxist and Islamist scumbags to bestow pardons upon between November and January 20th.  You don't seriously believe a man-child who can't even read a TOTUS without ****ing up could generate that on his own, do you??

Looks like Obummer's arrogance and dismissive attitude toward the S.C. members had an effect even on the lib judges in CA.  :lmao: King O gets his wings clipped again. Health care is next.

Isn't this the law that also included a clause requiring Obama's ID to be checked before he could go on the ballot?  :popcorn:

Not totally surprised... blind squirrel, nut, you know the drill. And USSC precedent is that requiring ID to vote is not an "unreasonable burden".

Yeah, but for the Ninth Circus to slap Obama back . . . well, that is news.

In other news, there's a hard freeze in Hell. :yahoo:

This morning I went to the post office to pick up a package after the carrier left a pink form on my front door.  I had to produce ID before they would release the package, yet I can vote under any name without any id.  What's wrong here?

Mail is serious business, there's laws and shit about that. Voting, well, that's just not as important [/DU mode]

Our vote is not valued as much as our mail.
