My mil was no longer driving and had allowed her driver's license to lapse. She thus had no valid ID and would have been turned away at certain polling places.
Many people in Chicago use public transportation or walk (i.e. don't own a car) and thus do not have a driver's license (valid ID).

BS... thats a lame excuse... because the true votes were wswamped by repeat votes.. votes by dead people... votes by illegals...Quote:

We have already argued those points so let move on. You guys lost the bid to rig the last election, and lost they election period. So lets get to the next rigging attempt with the electoral college and expanding section 5.
Expand sec 5 ? Nahh ,we want it gone. The Dems want to punish certain states and locals forever . You may say that the Dems aren't opposed to voter ID ;but I haven't heard one major Dem come out in support of voter id efforts..
Yep, "progressives" can't see the irony in rejecting progress and treating some states and districts with prejudice in the name of impartiality.

Guess we have to wait for the decision.
Right after Obama gets harshly punished for his shenanigans and his personal involvement with Acorn... Right?

I was going to correct the spelling, but I usually leave this board alone (since you all understand each other despite misspellings and typos).Quote:

He's that too... however more like a black hole than an abyss... because the black hole sucks in and consumes absolutely everything near it... an abyss sits their and waits for stuff to fall in.Quote:

For what, requiring an ID? What the hell, Tal? Why shouldn't Dems be punished for election shenanigans? Why should Holder have dismissed the New Black Panthers case he had already won?Quote:

Explain your prejudice please, and your god awful hurry to change the rules in the middle of the stream.
As to the embellishing the incident you label as a threat by TWO people, one a certified poll watcher, and completely be silent about the repubs registration fiasco is quite beyond my understanding too.
New Black Panther Party voter intimidation case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GOP voter registration scandal widens - Salon.comQuote:
The incident drew the attention of police, who around 10:00 am, sent King Samir away in part because of his billy club. Jackson was allowed to stay, in part because he was a certified poll watcher.[7] Stephen Robert Morse, a journalist and filmmaker, upon arriving at the scene, pulled out a Flip video camera and focused on Samir Shabazz. Morse turned over the video of the incident to ElectionJournal.org.[8] The incident gained national attention after being uploaded to YouTube.[2]
No complaints were filed by voters about the incident, although poll watchers witnessed some voters approach the polls and then turn away, apparently in response to the New Black Panther Party members.[9]
How you equate an incident, minor on its face, and isolated with a deliberate plot to commit voter fraud is a mystery to me. You want integrity in voting? Then start with your own party, and demand better.Quote:
A man originally reported to have been working for the Republican Party of Virginia was arrested by the Rockingham County, Va. Sheriff's Office on Thursday and charged with attempting to destroy voter registration forms by tossing them into a dumpster behind a shopping center in Harrisonburg, Va.
Dude, whenever you're ready to talk based on reality, I'm here. I will not keep wasting my time answering to positions you assign to me.
Hello again,
Isn't this the thread where you righty's CONVICTED Senator Menendez based solely on a right wing blog? I think it IS.
In any case, looks like that sleaze bag Tucker Carlson set the whole thing up, kind of like Breitbart did a couple of times...
I suggested that you WAIT before you convict him.. But, you NEVER listen to reason.
