Slime attacks work.
If ACORN & Company can spend millions of dollars and hours registering people, they can do the same to help people without IDs get them.
So wait a minute are you saying elderly rural people may not be able to vote in this upcoming election? Anyone know who they as a group generally vote for? I'm thinking it's generally not the dems.
Muhaaaaaaaa!
Any conservatives having second thoughts about this?
Sudde
No, because conservatives and Republicans are smart enough that they have already taken the small and easy steps to prepare for a legal vote. Getting an ID from a State agency isn't brain surgery.
I don't need an ID to buy alcohol (well over 26), with direct deposit no need for ID, never once had to provide ID for movie, If you don't drive, ID isn't needed, rarely if ever show an ID for credit/debit card, very few work for the justice dept., and I don't fly, haven't in years, I'd rather drive that put up with the molestation squad.

Yes mono they have. Every single one of them.
Did you have to show ID to open a bank account?
You state you do not fly; but would rather drive; But how without a driver's license.
You may be asked to prove your age when purchasing a controlled substance.
It is optional; up to the discretion of the vendor.
You also stated rarely; what happens if you refuse to show the ID?
you can choose to live without an ID; it can be inconvenient;
However, nothing is stopping you from getting one.
Rather than complain that they can not get one and making a big stink; they get off their tailbones and do something about it.
Follows in the general footsteps that the Dem wish to push; lazy ones that refuse to do anything; wanting help from others instead of doing things yourself.

You have to show photo ID up here in Canada to vote. I honestly don't understand the fuss around the issue. You basically can't function in society without it anyways.
Meh, I haven't been carded for booze in ages. And I'm a middle aged white dude that looks younger than my actual age. I also opened a bank account last year without any ID as well. Did it online.
Oh, the rough # of PA residents that will be hit by this law is ~750k or so. You can't tell me that there are that many illegals in the state. Nor are there that many cases of fraud that would warrant the law.
I have a mental exercise for you. Go through that list and try to figure out which ones are rights and which ones are privileges.

There have been no investigations of prosecutions of in-person voter fraud in Pennsylvania; and the parties do not have direct personal knowledge of any such investigations or prosecutions in other states, according to official state papers sent to the court.

Pennsylvania House Majority Leader Mike Turzai (R-Allegheny) told the Republican State Committee on Saturday what voting rights advocates have been saying for months: voter ID laws will help will help presumptive Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney win the state.
750K do not drive, fly, go to school, changed jobs or have opened a bank account in person the past 5 years?
The population of Pennsylvania is 12.7million. Given a US pop ~310m yields that ~4% of the US population. With say 10 million illegal immigrants in the US in Pennsylvania has its fair share than there are ~400,000 in the state.
Now as for your ~750k figure. What you mean to say is up to 750K(over half of whom may be illegal immigrants).
I read through the reddit thread about this:
Probably not a problem for Mr. Cramer's father as his son could probably pay to transport him to get one, but for many people in the middle of nowhere, it's a more considerable effort, especally if you're elderly.
No, you don't have to show photo ID in Canada.
To vote, you must prove your identity and address. You have three options:
Option 1: Show one original piece of identification with your photo, name and address. It must be issued by a government agency.
Option 2: Show two original pieces of authorized identification. Both pieces must have your name and one must also have your address.
Option 3: Take an oath and have an elector who knows you vouch for you (both of you will be required to make a sworn statement). This person must have authorized identification and their name must appear on the list of electors in the same polling division as you. This person can only vouch for one person and the person who is vouched for cannot vouch for another elector.
