Why voter id is racist
« on: July 22, 2016, 03:29:19 PM »
AS  you know I think in economic terms and a friend explain the flaw with IDs that I can't get pass. They are required in many things in life but are not free. To me it's hardly costly but thinking my youth how hard just to get any kind of money in pocket I can see how tough having a id would be. The racial factor can easily tie-in to money

I agree. The court threw out Texas' law on those grounds.
More poor Texans voting = more Chicanos voting against Trump.

That's all good reason why it should be free and obviously better use for our tax money

Over 87 percent of the driving-age population (age 16 and over) have a picture ID driver's license.
This is not a big problem, but people with a political agenda continue to attempt to argue 2+2 is not 4.
If we need to give "free" ID to the 13% (actually would be less) then lets do it.

The goal of this law was to prevent people who were statistically proven to vote for Democrats from voting at all. This has been admitted by many people many times.
The fact is that voter impersonation is exceedingly rare.

In every state that has instituted this law, minority voting went up.

If this is a failure, why are Republicans still eager to pass and strengthen these laws?

Perhaps it is not a failure at halting those voters best known for voting Democratic, the dead.

Would Democrats support measures that made verifiable ID easy to get and easy to afford?

I notice you said prevent "people" instead of  "citizens" from voting for Democrats.
