Voter ID Redux

[Cow Poke]

I think many Dems actually do want to help people - but they're generally the rank and file, not the movers and shakers.

Yeah, I'll buy that - I work with quite a few Dems at the local food pantry, etc.... point taken and adopted!

Kemp is the republican secretary of state and is in control of voter registration at the same time he is running for Govenor. The "exact match" scheme is an obvious scam meant to suppress the democrat, partucularly the African American vote, which of course enhances his own chances of winning in this otherwise neck and neck race. He is now being asked to resign as secretary of state and the case is going to court. Just one more instance of the many ways republicans go about suppressing the vote of their opposition.

Kemp wants voter roles scrutinized after his opponent Stacey Abrams called on non-citizens to vote, saying in a recent speech that the "blue wave" will include "those who are documented and undocumented." Jim Sciutto, co-host of CNN Newsroom and Kaylee Hartung, for some odd reason, left that part out while they discussed the new voter registrations that have been put on hold because of problems with how the forms were filled out. At least Hartung did mention this can be easily corrected by simply showing up to vote on Election Day with a photo ID -- which is already required anyway.

No, Kemp wants to steal the election by suppressing the democratic vote just as he did in the past when the court struck his law down. Republicans are very devious in their operations, they establish these rules shortly before the election when they know the courts don't want to get involved. The registrations, a reported 53 thousand of them, that Kemp, who should have nothing to do with anyway, has put on hold, have been put on hold for simple errors committed by the registrars themselves when registering voters. Simple things such as a missing period or comma, and these simple errors, committed by the registrars on 53,000 registrations, just happen to be 70% African American. You can play dumb if you want, but the facts show you to be either playing dumb, or in reality, dumb.

Wrong. The discrepancies were on driver's license numbers or social security numbers. Not commas or periods. Again, you lot show just how despicable of frauds you really are...

It was Republicans in Georgia who were responsible for establishing a voter ID system that eliminated all the excuses that the left had for opposing them.

If you claim you can't afford an ID, then one will be provided free of charge.

If you claim it is too inconvenient to go out and get one then they'll send folks to your residence and provide one -- again free of charge.

This way nobody can accurately claim that asking for an ID somehow equates to voter suppression, but some on the left still do. Of course their claims are baseless and pretty much demonstrate that the only "voter suppression" they are really concerned about is trying to stop attempts to reduce fraud.

Btw, the errors are not anything like what you pretend. It has nothing to do with missing commas and the like but Social Security and Driver's Licence numbers that don't match. They may very well be simple mistakes but these can easily be remedied by simply showing up to vote on Election Day with a photo ID -- which is already required anyway.

Nope, I know that's what they tell you now, but "exact match" means "exact match" with everything, not just with ss and drivers licence numbers. That's why it's called the "exact match law," duh! It's also a fact that the majority of these withheld registrations are African American registrations and had it not been found out completely by accident, none of those whose registrations were put on hold would have known they needed to remedy the problem. They weren't informed. How dumb can you get!

But that makes it harder to cheat disenfranchises voters!

Then blame the illiterate registrars who went door to door SPECIFICALLY in black-heavy neighborhoods.

No, I'll blame the person in charge, and that of course is Kemp who approved the whole thing. Could you people please start using your heads and stop acting like complete and utter morons, its making me ill just thinking of it.

So, what, he's just supposed to turn a blind eye to registrations with significant errors?

The Attorney General following the law? I'm sure that's a foreign concept to you clowns, but...

These voter registration efforts are racist at their core. They target only minorities, and they unashamedly admit it. They intentionally eliminated any whites from their registration effort and targeted minorities with the sole intention of getting the Dem elected. it isn't about getting everyone to vote - it's about getting everyone to vote for the Democrat.

So basically you are calling blacks illiterate?
