Johnny Randle, a 74-year-old African-American resident of Milwaukee, moved to Wisconsin from Mississippi in 2011, the same year the state legislature passed a law requiring a government-issued photo ID to cast a ballot. Randle, with the help of his daughter, petitioned the DMV to issue him a free ID for voting because he could not afford to pay for his Mississippi birth certificate.

After a five-month adjudication process, the DMV denied his request. His daughter ultimately tracked down his Mississippi birth certificate, but the name listed, Johnnie Marton Randall, did not match the name hed used his entire life, Johnny Martin Randle. The DMV said that he would either need to correct his name through the Social Security Administration and get a new Social Security card reflecting the name on his birth certificate or go to court to change his name and provide court documents reflecting that your name has legally been changed to read as Johnny M Randle. But Randle worried that any change to his Social Security information might interrupt the monthly disability payments he survives on. (This account comes from a new lawsuit challenging Wisconsins voting restrictions filed by Democratic lawyer Marc Elias, Hillary Clintons campaign counsel.)

It's the law! Written and enacted by elected legislative officials in accordance with the state constitution and bill of rights. Your example is worthwhile only in that it represents the "unintended consequences" of law making. This ax swings both ways. Typical governmental screw up. OK now lets talk the screw ups in the AHCA?

LOL! You're funny. You think it was "unintended"? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
They were warned about it before they passed the law. Just like in Texas. Just like in every red state where they Repukes are in control and they need to use voter suppression in order to counteract the effects of the shrinking Republican base due to demographic changes.

Mind reading? What does mind reading have to do with it? It's called common sense. It's called paying attention to the way they constantly cheat and use many methods to suppress the votes. It's called "qui bono"? (who benefits?). It's called DUH!

Your argument is clouded by your blind partisanship. Therefore, it doesn't hold water.

So why should I not expect anything else from you? Your altering my words are not only unbecoming, but dishonest. Once again your character and morality shine through your feeble attempts. We know "what" you are too bad we don't know "who" you are!

Dishonest? I didn't try to hide anything. I said "there. fixed". If I tried to be dishonest, I would have denied it, silly.

"EVEN 65% OF LIBERALS THINK VOTER ID IS A GOOD THING
83 percent of non-whites support Voter ID as opposed to 82 percent of whites"

Well, isn't this an interesting development. As Front Page reports, a new Marist poll finds that Democrats are almost as racist as Republicans in their support for Voter ID laws:

A Marist poll shows 83 percent of non-whites support Voter ID as opposed to 82 percent of whites. In a poll with an 11 percent black and 15 percent Latino composition, that suggests higher margins of minorities support Voter ID.

Interestingly enough theres no racial breakdown for the question "Do you think it would be a good idea if the laws were changed to require identification to vote," the way that there is for other questions. Its just divided into whites and non-whites.

But even worse news is that a majority of those who identify as liberal or very liberal support Voter ID by 65% to 33%. Democrats support it by 72%.

So let's get this straight. Conservatives support Voter ID laws. Republicans support Voter ID laws. Liberals support Voter ID laws. Democrats support Voter ID laws. White people support Voter ID laws. Black people support Voter ID laws.

So why doesn't the Democratic Party?

What you did was edit my comments without my approval. They do not necessarily represent my opinion and can be misleading to others. It is not only dishonest: it is disingenuous. I can accept you calling me whatever name comes to your mind, but I refuse to allow you to edit my comments without my permission. And you do not have my permission to do so. I didn't think my opinion of you could get lower...but it has.

It's ok. It's been a very long time since I've cared about your opinion of me, if I ever did.
