218,000 voters denied right to vote in NC

Post by _Kevin Graham »

This is why Republicans want so badly to pass these stupid laws that make it more difficult for citizens to exercise their right to vote. It is the best way for them to manipulate elections.

Yes, and much like people who find it difficult to punch a hole through paper we should all hope to have someone elected by people who don't even have an id in our modern times

College students shouldn't really be voting anyway. You should have a job and be subject to income taxation before you get that right.

My regard for the US is at an all-time low. I've never been this disgusted by my country in my life.

You would do well to move to China and the communists. They also restrict who can vote. I see so many like you that want to restrict others from their say in how the their country is run. The OP is about how many do not really like democracy.

You mean the 94 year old? You are an idiot, "they" did not have ID, which is the whole point of the law. The "article" never actually stated anything about anything....floated a bit of "what if" turds in the water....and you lapped it up like a good puppy.

But being a good, obedient, and fraud-loving democrat like yourself thinks that a resident from one state should also be allowed to vote in a different state...because a good democrat believes that one voter should get to cast more than one vote.

Read what it says dumass it said they were mostly students who HAD ID. They were legally registered to vote in that state but were denied because they were students from out of state. Republicans design their stupid laws so it becones more difficult for people to vote, particularly the educated.

Interesting. On March 14 (the day before the primaries), this article ran at The Nation:

 North Carolina’s Voter ID Law Could Block 218,000 Registered Voters From the Polls

Now, two days later, Kevin is telling us that there were, in fact, 218,000 voters who were denied the right to vote.

So it went from being a "could" to a fact in two days. I need to start reading "The Nation" more, because that kind of predictive power is rare.
