Studies show it disproportionately stifles the vote of people of color. Solve whatever factor is at play there to make it so it doesn't and you'll no longer have an argument against you. its that simple. When the dice get shaken that's how they come out simple as that


Why is that a bad thing for society? Should we get rid of cars because some people crash them?

What is the factor at play that is effecting people of color disproportionately in this case? Should we force the behavior of all cultures or races to be the same where we find differences?

Claims Washington liberals are the problem - has no actual evidence - is completely blind to state wide glaring corruption and hypocrisy by Republicans even when its directly shown to him.

California, Illinois, new york, dc ? Not corrupt?

Lol.
You sir. A really a special kind of stupid.

Anyone can get a voter ID.
Your two examples are idiotic.

I gave you fscts that they are free and simple to achieve.
You reaponded with a video from Oliver and an another article about a man getting denied a DRIVERS license.
Which the article said 'an ID to vote'... even though you don't need a DRIVERS LICENSE to vote. Only a 'voter ID card'

Please. Continue to bathe in your own ignorance. All of jsp is loving it and even your fellow liberals are embarrassed by you.

Inb4 post commentary instead of a news story.

Read the article or don't post.

Thanks.


That's totally true because paid workers for the hildebeast were caught on camera saying how they would get fraudulent votes passed withoutbeing arrested.

It obviously played a huge role, most significantly in Wisconsin and North Carolina but also in Florida and Ohio.

I don't know if voter suppression by itself caused Trump's election (I'd rank it below Comey's interference, which DEFINITELY caused Trump's election by itself having taken at least 2% off Clinton's national margin and had a disproportionate impact in the battlegrounds that cost her the election), but it obviously doesn't help. That's exactly why the GOP has been engaged in a long-running voter suppression campaign that has spanned nearly a decade now, and its effects are felt in nearly every single state where they have even a modicum of control.

Canada has had ID voting laws for as long as I can remember? No big deal, just go get ID.

You know what was "significant" in Wisconsin? (c)linton herself didnt even go there once to campaign for the general. Arrogant and extremely careless and unreasonable.

Trump got more votes than any other republican and (C)linton got millions less than Obama cuz she ignored his gameplan for winning elections but its "voter supression" :rofl:

2 weeks on and still doing postmortem excuses

E: obligatory: thanks for all the fucking laughs!!
