Prove it wrong, this story is carried and was run as new at the time. Im sure the WP did not have it. But as a self proclaimed "Fact Checker" they probably said it wasn't true.

Try redstate.com next time dude. True The Vote? HaHaHa, I love it. No offense but these guys are well known hyperpartisan wingnuts, imo.

Of the three sources? I take the Washington Post for integrity, YMMV.

Probably worse, these righties have seen the writing on the wall and it looks no bueno for them. They won't even listen to Prince Preibus's 2012 autopsy and learn from it. The browning of America really scares the piss out of them and they have no one to blame except themselves for driving the latino vote into the arms of the Dems.

Some of the charges in the NY Times article were aggressive DAs charging felons for trying to vote....some did not know they were not allowed to. Plus they were just trying to vote once, not trying to do it multiple times.

No problem at all. We don't need one to vote. In fact, we have vote by mail so you don't need squat once you're registered.

Detained, not arrested and it's at the cop's discretion. I was asked for ID once and didn't have it with me. The cop asked me if I had a California DL and I told him that I did. He asked me for my name, DOB and SS#, went back to his car, punched the data into his computer and printed out a picture of my DL, complete with my photo. That was that.

Detained is arrested the only difference is your just not charged with anything. When you register you provide documentation as to who you are. It.s been awhile for me but Im sure I had to use ID and or SS card with address. Thats why I have a specific polling place and I check in and they make sure they check me off the list.
