That someone would waste so much time compiling a silly assed list like this in just 72 hours is a sure fire indicator that they need to get a life.

It's the media doing it's job.

No, it's a fucking pain in the ass to get one.

Poor people move often.

When I moved from Florida to Alabama two and a half years ago it took me five fucking hours at the fucking DMV to get mine changed over. Plus it cost me $25 bucks. And that was because I had done my research and had all the necessary documentation with me. If I had missed one thing I would have had to come back another day and wait another five fucking hours in their crowded waiting room in those uncomfortable cheap assed plastic chairs, if you were lucky enough to get a seat.

And since then the State of Alabama has closed about half of their DMV offices because of "Budget Cuts" so it's probably much worse now.

I don't have a problem with requiring a picture ID for voting, but if the government is going to require one to exercise such a fundamental right as voting then they damn well better make it easy and free.

Like they did a "job" on Bernie, and now they are trying to do a "job" on Trump.

Fuck the Media.

When recently visited Central Florida I transported a relative to the DMV and the change over was a breeze, very fast and efficient. However the cost--$54.

I agree with your perspective.

Speaking of the media doing their job. It looks like the NY Times finally found their cojones in their other pants and have started calling out der Gropenfurher for his lies.

Too bad they spent so much ink last summer and fall on chasing stories about Hillary's emails and repeating rightwing lies about the Clinton Family Foundation.

'Trump Repeats Lie About Popular Vote in Meeting With Lawmakers'

"WASHINGTON — President Trump used his first official meeting with congressional leaders on Monday to falsely claim that millions of unauthorized immigrants had robbed him of a popular vote majority, a return to his obsession with the election’s results even as he seeks support for his legislative agenda.
The claim, which he has made before on Twitter, has been judged untrue by numerous fact-checkers. The new president’s willingness to bring it up at a White House reception in the State Dining Room is an indication that he continues to dwell on the implications of his popular vote loss even after assuming power.

Mr. Trump appears to remain concerned that the public will view his victory — and his entire presidency — as illegitimate if he does not repeatedly challenge the idea that Americans were deeply divided about sending him to the White House to succeed President Barack Obama.
Mr. Trump received 304 electoral votes to capture the White House, but he fell almost three million votes short of Hillary Clinton in the popular vote. That reality appears to have bothered him since Election Day, prompting him to repeatedly complain that adversaries were trying to undermine him.

Moving into the White House appears not to have tempered that anxiety. Several people familiar with the closed-door meeting Monday night, who asked to remain anonymous in discussing a private conversation, said Mr. Trump used the opportunity to brag about his victory.
As part of that conversation, Mr. Trump asserted that between three million and five million unauthorized immigrants voted for Mrs. Clinton. That is similar to a Twitter message he posted in late November that said he would have won the popular vote “if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally.”

Voting officials across the country have said there is virtually no evidence of people voting illegally, and certainly not millions of them. White House officials did not respond to requests for a comment on Mr. Trump’s discussion of the issue.

Representative Steny H. Hoyer, Democrat of Maryland, who attended the meeting, said that Mr. Trump also talked about the size of the crowd for his Inaugural Address.

“It was a huge crowd, a magnificent crowd. I haven’t seen such a crowd as big as this,” Mr. Hoyer told CNN, quoting Mr. Trump. He added that Mr. Trump did not “spend a lot of time on that, but it was clear that it was still on his mind.”"

Yeah, it's everybody else's fault except Bernie's that he lost by 3 million votes and 300+ delegates to a girl.

I had a similar experience when I went to get my pistol permit in Alabama.

I was in and out of the Sherriffs office in no more than 15 minutes. Much easier than the DMV. It's easier to shoot than drive in Alabama. And the Pistol Permit can be used for voter ID. But it cost me $100 bucks for a five year permit.

I really didn't think it was a big deal. But, I have never moved but about 500 yards.
