What an excellent summation of those who can now vote. Getting an ID card is too difficult.
I wonder if anything else would be difficult for this population. Hmmmm.

I am talking about how other states have the very same requirement, and I am asking if those states enacted the law based on dirty politics as per your claim.
PA's law is tougher. As I understand it other states will allow you to use a utility bill or anything with your name and address on it. PA says no--it MUST be a photo ID.
The founding fathers are spinning in their graves. The right to vote is enshrined in the Constitution. Nowhere is it mentioned that you need ID to vote.

And what population are you referring to? The elderly? The disabled?
Stop being snobbish and try--just for a second--to put yourself in their shoes.

Ahhh, the hypocritical left.....you've done it again. These are the same people crying foul about voter fraud being the only reason Bush won both of his elections, but when it's them getting or keeping office, they're all 100% against preventing voter fraud. LOL.....unbelievable. Brainwashed hypocrites....every last one of them.

You should do a little research about that election the complaint was not about voter fraud.
I will not make it easy on you so you should take the time and look it up or you will remain part of the uninformed right.

Why are the PA Voter ID requirements written so that 80 percent of PA college ID's are invalid?
The requirements state that college ID must have a current expiration date, when 80 percent of PA colleges don't have an expiration date on their ID's. Why is that?
The Republican Party of Florida is dumping a firm it paid more than $1.3 million to register new voters, after Palm Beach County Elections Supervisor Susan Bucher flagged 106 "questionable" registration applications turned in by the contractor this month.
Yesterday, Michael Isikoff reported that the registration troubles had spread:
NBC News has learned that four other Florida counties have also reported hundreds of possible fraudulent registration forms submitted by the firm, including apparent dead people being registered as new voters. Prosecutors in two counties are investigating possible voter fraud by the GOP consulting firm, officials said.
(To this day, Fox treats misaddressed voter registration forms as "fraud.") But this morning, Kilmeade and his guests made no mention of the fact that the Republican Party was just forced to fire a consulting firm for submitting potentially bogus voter registration forms; forms being reviewed by local law enforcement.
At Fox News, the hotbed for "voter fraud" stories, the embarrassing news from Florida is of little concern.

I would think the answer is obvious. They do not want college students to vote because historically they are not republicans.

Maybe you do actually read the sources but I fail to see why you pointed out exactly what the article said itself. Oh wait you didn’t read it did you? You thought you were being smart or you were being captain obvious..

I still want to know how those seniors you are so concerned about, the ones who are unable to get to the DMV, I am curious how they cash their Social Security checks without an ID.

That was how my mother did it, after her driver's license expired. She had joint account with my name on it, so sometimes she sent me to the bank to take out money for her.
