    Majority of Black and Hispanic Voters Support Voter ID

    "Poll: Majority of Black and Hispanic Voters Support Voter ID

    A majority of Americans, including a majority of black and Hispanic voters, overwhelmingly support voter ID, a key election integrity measure, a HEP and HEP Action survey ? which comes as Democrats continue to advance H.R. 1 ? revealed.
    Jason Snead, the Executive Director of the Honest Elections Project, sent a memo to members of Congress ahead of Wednesday?s Senate Rules Committee hearing on House-passed H.R. 1, or the ?For the People Act,? which would essentially federalize U.S. elections, stripping states of their ability to implement basic election integrity measures, such as voter ID, by micromanaging the election process administered by each individual state".

    Of course they do -- as do many grass-roots Democrats.

    They understand that allowing unqualified people to vote dilutes THEIR votes.

      Further assisted by the failing perceptions of individual States, unified for common good. Economics/fair trade, common currency, national defense which includes secured borders. Many people think outside their own homes, the USA and Canada are playground in their back yard.

        It was a curiosity to me that people put up with far more red tape for voting than they will for gun purchases, and indeed we see now that red tape is a feature of voting, not a bug, with Republicans trying to add more at every turn.

        Then it all made sense when I realized that a bullet flying in the worst neighborhood in say Little Rock has no chance of reaching the Ozarks. But a ballot cast in that same neighborhood for a statewide contest touches the entire state!

        So there's your answer.

            ID is just the beginning. Anyhow imagine being purged from the approved gun buyers registry in your state because you hadn't been active for a time (don't want dead people buying guns), and having to go back and re-register. So, show proof of address, proof of citizenship, maybe prove a few other things. All before you can go ahead with the transaction.

            That's what you want for voting. Why? Because a vote cast anywhere in the state effectively has statewide reach. Tell me it ain't so.

              would you rather have your great great great grampa on the roles even tho he died 200 yrs ago?

              here in VA,
              we register like most folks do,

              but when voting, showed our DL or ID card, not our Voter Registration Card (which is free and every on is sent,,)

              now, D's in charge, no more showing ID,, or DL,, that is Voter Suppression,,,
              now we show the Voter's Registration card,,,


              go figure

                In Chicago you don't even need to show voter registration. Walk in and blurt out a name. They will read back the address associated with said name. You say 'yes'. They hand you a signature card (actually a slip of paper). You sign it and they compare it to a photo copy of a previous signature. Close enough for government work and you get a ballot. My signature was questioned a couple of times. The senior judge told the younger it was OK. Old copy and signatures change.

                No surprise the time my son stopped to vote after work and got there near closing. Only to discover someone had already used his name. A grievance to the judge and the police officer went no further than 'don't make waves'.

                In the early 90s I presented my DL and voter card when I walked in, only to be told with a smile that we didnt need that anymore.
                Now, they don't even list party affiliations on the local ballots. Used to be you had to verify and be registered before a deadline. Today the precinct workers drive up with a van load. No...not seniors or disabled. Kids. Register them at the first table and hand out ballots at the next.

                Anyone claiming there is no election fraud is either one of the criminals or has their head up their.....

                  Also fascinating is the argument that we should leave no stone unturned when it comes to illegal voting. One illegal vote is one too many, and if we have to add hoops upon hoops for people to jump through, then By God let's get to it. And yet, on guns, it's exactly the opposite argument, that one cannot stop illegal gun ownership, and one should not inconvenience legal gun owners in a foolhardy attempt to try. Diametrically opposite, absolutist positions on two of the so-called "boxes of freedom".

                  Again, the bullet that flies in Little Rock does not reach the Ozarks, but a ballot cast there touches the entire state.

                      typical liberal argument, and it is evident that you did not read either JB's or my posts



                      you claim one fraudulent vote is one too many, but how would you know it that vote was fraudulent or not with out knowing who is on the rolls and who is eligible to vote?

                      voter registration is simply a way to make sure that Bob or Mrs Bob gets to vote, and vote once,

                      here in VA, the registration card and the entire process is free,


                      now to compare that to buying a gun,

                      you have to have a valid state ID, (cost $$)
                      if the address is not current, you have to have a valid Government Document for the current address (may cost $$)

                      you have to fill out a federal form
                      you may have to fill out a state form
                      you have to go thru the NICS system, that costs $$
                      (unless you are in a state that allows CCW exemption,, but then you have to go thru that process and that costs $$)



                      and the illegal ownership,

                      as in
                      the guy that steals a firearm?
                      the guy that has his cousin/neighbor/ wife/whatever straw buy it? (see costs above)
                      the guy that lies on the form and may or maynot get caught?


                      etc etc
                      etc


                      the bullet that flies anywhere flies because someone set it in motion,
                      the bullet, as well as the device used to aim, and propel it, is simply a tool,
                      the user is the culprit, and we have laws and processes in place to keep most of them from using the tool


                      apples to fishcakes,,,


                      there is a correlation tho between those that want to 'open up' things like Voter or Voting Rights and even Marijuana laws,

                      they typically want to restrict gun ownership,
