BREAKING: Judge upholds Pa. voter ID law

Quote
A Commonwealth Court judge denied a bid by civil rights groups to block the new voter identification law from taking effect, delivering a first-round victory to Gov. Corbett and legislative Republicans who pushed the measure through this spring saying it was needed to prevent voter fraud.

2. What I don't understand is how Corbett and his co-plaintiffs had evidence

of voter fraud. I mean meaningful, substantial voter fraud.

I do not understand their furor over having to provide identification to vote.

I voted in the primary yesterday, went straight up to the lady with the Republican voter list in my precinct (she was sitting next to three people with Democrat voters divided into three sections of the alphabet) - handed her my driver license AND retired military ID (both have photos), and had no problem at all - no police jumped out of the bushes, the Democrats in the room did not try to convert me, no one berated me for any reason whatever.

Returned to my Jeep in the parking lot - it had not been keyed, no bumber stickers attached.

No one in the building, not even the Dems who were providing photo ID, seemed to be having an issue with anything.

I think the DUmmies on the island invent crises to pull their hair and wad their panties over.

8. Blacks, Students, the Elderly, and the Poor are a big problem for the GOP in PA.

They just keep voting.

Now if they could only do something about the woman vote.

I know... Only married women and their husbands must vote as a proxy for them.

The goal is narrowing the vote to middle-aged white men like myself.

So what am I complaining about? I got mine, jack.

Dems sure like a a lot of stupid people voting for them.

Right wingers, whomever they may be, think their shit don't stink, and they show the world we live, it should operate the way they see fit. This is how they operate as seen in the judges ruling.
Right wingers have serious problems up in their heads.

21. I hope that the churchs will encourage people to get the free voter registration.

Churchs should be in the forefront of this fight regardless of whether they are Christian, Islamic, Jewish, Morman... This is a basic right that they should lead the fight for. They should bus seniors, the poor and youth and whoever doesn't have transportation to get the necessary ID. I sincerely hope that it blows up in the damn Republicans face with massive voter turnout of the working class.

I can only hope that this energizes those who haven't voted to awaken them to the fact that their non-participation only results in their exploitation who are determined to emslave them in poverty.

25. The PA Dept of Transportation can't possibly supply all of the needed IDs in time.

There are too many people and not enough PennDOT photo centers. And the photo centers are already full of people renewing their driver's licenses.

23. Voter suppression

violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. But don't expect the highly partisan Supreme Court to uphold the Constitution if the decision would help Democrats.

It's true.

The PA law specifically says everybody needs a Voter ID...unless they're white.

More Acorn Voter Fraud Comes to Light

May 9, 2009

On Thursday, prosecutors in Pittsburgh, Pa., also charged seven Acorn employees with filing hundreds of fraudulent voter registrations before last year's general election.

snip

Fred Voight, deputy election commissioner in Philadelphia, protested after Acorn (according to the registrar of voters and his own investigation) submitted at least 1,500 fraudulent registrations last fall. "This has been going on for a number of years," he told CNN in October.

When it goes our way it's legislation from the bench and when it goes their way its truth to power. They really are sorry ass people with to much time to invent stupid shit to post.

No, it doesn't.  For that matter, all of them should hope that we never live up to their expectations.

4 Indiana Dems charged with election fraud in 2008 presidential race

Felony charges related to election fraud have touched the 2008 race for the highest office in the land.
 
Prosecutors in South Bend, Ind., filed charges Monday against four St. Joseph County Democratic officials and deputies as part of a multiple-felony case involving the alleged forging of Democratic presidential primary petitions in the 2008 election, which put then-candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on the Indiana ballot.

Yeah DUmmies, there is simply no need whatsoevar for voter ID laws.

Anyway...Indiana got its law and I believe Pennsylvanias law is modeled on Indianas so it should do just fine.
