Poppycock! All these testimonials are from Democrats. Total bullshit! The purpose for voter ID is to make sure that everybody that votes is truly eligible to vote and that they vote only once.Got a legitimate reason for not backing such a plan?It's not suppression when it's offered for FREE. We hire people to take census. Hire some to visit those who simply cannot afford to go to the DMV, let them take a face picture, have the subject sign a form, email the form with picture to the DMV...go to the next house that requested a free photo ID. What is suppressing about that?I bet the GOP has dozens of bills doing this in the states right? Oh wait no, they ONLY have dozens of voter ID suppression laws!
Got a LINK to the GOP's proposal ANYWHERE to do that? ANYWHERE? lol

The Challenge of Obtaining Voter Identification
The 11 percent of eligible voters who lack the required photo ID must travel to a designated government office to obtain one. Yet many citizens will have trouble making this trip. In the 10 states with restrictive voter ID laws:
- Nearly 500,000 eligible voters do not have access to a vehicle and live more than 10 miles from the nearest state ID-issuing office open more than two days a week. Many of them live in rural areas with dwindling public transportation options.
- More than 10 million eligible voters live more than 10 miles from their nearest state ID-issuing office open more than two days a week.
- 1.2 million eligible black voters and 500,000 eligible Hispanic voters live more than 10 miles from their nearest ID-issuing office open more than two days a week. People of color are more likely to be disenfranchised by these laws since they are less likely to have photo ID than the general population.
- Many ID-issuing offices maintain limited business hours.

You mean since Dubya's DOJ UNPRECEDENTED 5 year investigation of over 300+ million votes found ZERO people to prosecute for impersonating other voters?
It's simply GOP voter suppression

You died-in-the-wool liberals are simply too dependent on voter fraud to remain in power. That's because your message is nothing but lies and promises designed to do nothing other than GET ELECTED!
Liberalism is a goddamned mental disorder!
Got it, one of the 20% of Right Wing AmeriKans who are bat shit crazy is who you are. Weird, you'd think Dubya's DOJ UNPRECEDENTED 5 year investigation of 300+ million votes would've been able to prosecute ONE person that impersonated another at the poll, the ONLY type of fraud the GOP suppression ID laws stop. Weird
