Further....
If you encounter anyone who says to you that they do not have a residential street address to provide to either the [Department of Transport] or the tribal government to obtain an ID, please encourage them to reach out to the 911 Coordinator in the county in which their residence exists to start the simple process to have the address assigned.
The North Dakota Association of Counties maintains a list of all 53 County 911 Coordinators. A simple phone call to this individual can start this no charge process that can usually be completed in an hour or less when the individual can describe the location of the home. After the address is assigned, the office assigning it will provide a letter upon request that confirms this new address. This letter can be used either to obtain an ID or as supplemental documentation for voting purposes for those individuals whose ID includes a mailing address rather than a residential address.
While I certainly agree that laws should not "suddenly appear" just before the election cycle, that's now that happened here.
In general, it is not hard to figure that if you change some critical element of the process but don't make a really big deal about chasing down the affected people, a large number of those people won't find out about it till election day and thus won't be able to vote. It doesn't really matter how easy it is to fix the problem unless it can be done at the polling place at the time of voting.
Consider the fellow that doesn't get the message and leaves work at 5 to vote and the polls close at 7. He gets there at 5:30 and founds out, whoops we changed things. This is what you need to do to vote ...
Is it reasonable to expect it can be fixed in the remaining 1.5 hours? Probably not.

This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

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, democrats targeting democrat minorities to register to vote is racist in your mind? Your an idiot BTC. By the way, 70% of the registrations put on hold by Kemp and his crooked cronies, were minorities, that means that 30% of them were white.
As far as the registrations, the idiot registrars were the ones who flooded the Attorney General's office with the registrations JUST in time to accuse them of timing issues. They, like you, are pathetically hypocritical.That's what

Originally posted by carpedm9587 View PostDo you have some citations for this? It seems odd that anyone would intentionally try to get their vote set aside for an election they consider critical. It's rather like cutting off your nose to spite your face, especially given how little effect those protests actually have. I'd like to see some source material relevant to this claim.
