Judge Says U.S. Must Help States Enforce Voter ID Laws

Why are the Republicans trying to keep black and Latino voters from voting?

Why is your state going Blue?

Why did Jan Brewer accept Obamacare?


why?

So states could theoretically require passports for proof of citizenship when registering voters?
That is my take.

I thought Republicans were against big government overreach? Perhaps big government is ok when trying to block people of color from voting.

I'm betting that this ruling will be overturned.

Hopefully they will overturn the judge while they are at it.

It's racist to ask for ID?

The discriminator of what is permissible under civil rights laws isn't just overt acts of racism. It also includes actions that disproportionately impact a certain class of people, whether they intended to do so or not.

It's racist to have laws/rules that deliberately put a group of people at a distinct disadvantage to exercise their voting rights.
