ACLU Leader Says Voter ID Law Akin to Jim Crow-Era Law

Fake ID's aren't that hard to get, and any well financed group with a vested interest in the outcome of the election can (and probably will) game the system.

Think of the logistics it would take to pull off any significant in-person voter fraud.

So since people have historically got away with voter fraud we should never try to stop it huh. I think we have turned a blind eye too this for far to long and in this era where the vote is so equally divided between right and left we can't let a little fraud here and there swing the results. An honest election is crucial to a democracy surviving.

I refer you to post #39 in this thread.

If you are being detained yes, you need to show ID, if not you do not need to even speak to an officer.

Please pass go and collect your civil rights.

I am assuming if a cop ask you for ID as you walk down the street he is doing so because you just walked out of a store with something in your pocket or some similar event. Cops can't ask you for ID on a whim, or maybe you are just cute and he wants your phone number. LOL

We have gone through so many years in the United States without Voter ID laws, and we now suddenly need them? Voter fraud is not something that is not common in the United States and this seems like an attempt to disenfranchise certain sets of voters. :usflag2:

I see absolutely nothing wrong with requiring someone to prove they're an eligible voter by showing identification. Many people say, "There's no evidence voter fraud is a problem." Well, that's the point. How would one gather evidence if no one is required to show an identification?

I have to show identification for everything -- why not for the most important right we enjoy? I think one party believes their base is too stupid or apathetic to get an identification. It's the only reason I can think of to oppose it.

By your answer, I take it that you cannot prove any significant voter fraud in the last decade.

Just how many people have been convicted of voter fraud in the last decade?

Heres just a few cases of fraud to get the ball rolling.


On Jan. 30 in West Virginia, Lincoln County Sheriff Jerry Bowman and Lincoln County Clerk Donald Whitten pleaded guilty to federal charges they attempted to flood the 2010 Democratic primary with fraudulent absentee ballots. Bowman was a candidate for Circuit Clerk. The two admitted to falsifying more than 100 absentee ballot applications for voters who did not have any legal basis to vote absentee.

In the Troy, N.Y., case, out of eight who were charged, four have pleaded guilty. City Councilmen John Brown and Anthony DeFiglio, former Troy City Clerk William McInerney and Democratic operative Anthony Renna all pleaded guilty. The probe was into whether they forged signatures on applications for absentee ballots and on actual ballots in the 2009 primary of the Working Families Party, a third party in New York state that frequently cross-endorses Democratic candidates.

The Albany Times-Union newspaper reported that most of the fraudulent names were of residents of public housing authority apartments. The paper quoted DeFiglio calling it a “normal political tactic.”

Meanwhile, in 2011, the Colorado Secretary of State’s office compared voter data with state Department of Revenue data and found more than 16,000 potential matches of non-citizens on the state’s voter rolls.

Prior to that, a report by the Milwaukee Police Department on the 2004 election found, “there does remain a strong possibility that the discovery of those random staffers voting illegally is the proverbial ‘tip of the iceberg’ as it relates to an illegal organized attempt to influence the outcome of the election in the state of Wisconsin.”

In 2005, the Virginia State Board of Elections admonished Project Vote and ACORN for turning in a significant number of faulty voter registrations. An audit revealed that 83% of sampled registrations that were rejected for carrying false or questionable information were submitted by Project Vote. Many of these registrations carried social security numbers that exist for other people, listed non-existent or commercial addresses, or were for convicted felons in violation of state and federal election law.

In a letter to ACORN, the State Board of Elections reported that 56% of the voter registration applications ACORN turned in were ineligible. Further, a full 35% were not submitted in a timely manner, as required by law. The State Board of Elections also commented on what appeared to be evidence of intentional voter fraud. "Additionally,” they wrote, “information appears to have been altered on some applications where information given by the applicant in one color ink has been scratched through and re-entered in another color ink. Any alteration of a voter registration application is a Class 5 Felony in accordance with § 24.2-1009 of the Code of Virginia."



WA

2007

Three ACORN employees pleaded guilty, and four more were charged, in the worst case of voter registration fraud in Washington state history. More than 2,000 fraudulent voter registration cards were submitted by the group during a voter registration drive.

The district attorney’s office investigated seven voter registration applications Project Vote employees filed in the names of people who said the group never contacted them.

Still not satisfied?

ST. PAUL, Minn., Oct. 13, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Minnesota Majority today released a report on voter fraud convictions to date stemming from Minnesota's 2008 general election. The report finds that 113 individuals who voted illegally in the 2008 election have been convicted of the crime, "ineligible voter knowingly votes" under Minnesota Statute 201.014.

Maybe it's not pc, but people who do not have the where-with-all to get some sort of ID to a polling station probably shouldn't be voting anyway. I would make an exception for the house-bound senior and handicapped.

Judging by their reaction, one can only assume that Democrats consider a significant number of their base essentially dysfunctional.

Many people, even if they do have an ID, don't have one that contains a current address. This is a bigger problem than you are trying to minimize it into.

Good work Sawyer. Now can you find out if the vote bullying included any wedgies or purple nurples?

Many people, even if they do have an ID, don't have one that contains a current address. This is a bigger problem than you are trying to minimize it into.

They have two years between elections to get that fixed. The only reason I can see to oppose needing a picture ID to vote is because you want to make it possible for someone to vote for someone else--voter fraud.
 
So its a very small number of people convicted of voter fraud, given the size of the US population.

Good to know that our current system works well.

It is even more puny given the actual number of voters over that same time period.

And I am still looking for an exact figure of how many people have been convicted of voter fraud over the last decade - let us say since the 2000 election cycle.
