What is wrong with having to show some form of ID to vote ?
I'm not trying to protect anyone. I just don't see the problem. 31 incidents out of a billion votes? Yet this has become a priority?
That's 31 too many. Don't support voter fraud, support voter ID laws.

We are working on it.
In Maryland we have dumped the democrat's voter fraud machines in favor of paper ballots.
No more electronic voter fraud here.That "31 incidents" number above is crap.
Add in the Acorn voter fraud, the California health exchange's attempt to register people to vote using a document with the democratic party already checked for them, the illegal alien vote and on and on.
It is the liberal way. They can't win with out fraud.Remember when the NAACP brought in the UN to "observe and report" in the 2012 election?
Well, they did and the first item on their report was the UN's dismay that ID was not required in so many States.
The NAACP of course dropped that report in the trash quite fast.
Certainly when a felon gets out of prison, he/she gets issued an ID ? No word on if she/he will have to show that ID to now vote in Virginia:

No, felons are not issued an ID upon release.
If they are illegal aliens obama will not even deport them.
In Virginia the Governor, who is in the pocket of Hillary Clinton, made this illegal move purely to help Hillary Clinton in the fall election.
McAuliffe's order will certainly be opposed in the courts but that will not happen in time for the 2016 election.
200,000 convicted felons in the state of Virginia may now register to vote.
That "31 incidents" number above is crap.

Congress found ACORN not guilty of any and all wrong doing.
You are A DISGUSTING VILE LIAR!
Whew. That was fun. Now I can go back to ignoring that moron of a troll.

Wrong again dumbass.
Acorn was forced to shut down when Congress took away their funding.
Numerous Acorn paid staffers were prosecuted.
obama the corrupt via media matters and george soros setup new "non-profit" voter fraud groups and illegally funded them by moving already budgeted money from various agencies.
If you were informed, or even read the WP you would already know this but you do not in your never ending effort to maintain your status as a low-info voter.
The good news is that a Federal Judge slapped obama and the NAACP right upside da head.
Ha ha.
Supreme Court slaps down another obama and the hate groups attempt at voter fraud:
Supreme Court denies bid to block Texas voter ID law
By Bill Mears - Published April 29, 2016 - FoxNews.com
Texas' controversial voter identification law will remain in effect, possibly through November's elections, after the Supreme Court on Friday denied an emergency request from a coalition of Latino advocacy groups and Democratic lawmakers who say the measure is discriminatory.
The unsigned order from the justices did not explain their reasoning, or whether there was any opposition. While it is a temporary decision, it could affect enforcement of similar laws in other states during a hotly contested presidential election year.
A lawsuit challenging the Texas law known as SB 14 is still pending in a federal court, and the immediate issue was whether it could be enforced until the legal issues are fully resolved. A federal appeals court will hold a hearing next month on the issue, and the Supreme Court indicated it could revisit the issue later this year.
One of the strictest such laws in the country, it requires voters to provide certain government-issued photo ID in order to cast a ballot. Texas officials and the U.S. Justice Department agree more than 600,000 eligible voters in the second-largest state lack one of the required IDs.
Opponents say a disproportionate number are poor Hispanic and black voters.
But state officials claim there have been no problems such as large numbers of eligible voters being turned away.
A federal appeals court ruled the 2011 law had a "discriminatory effect" in violation of the landmark Voting Rights Act. But the Supreme Court two years later struck down the VRA's key enforcement provision, muting much of the federal government's ability to monitor and block state laws that may deny voters fair, unfettered access to the polls.
Against that backdrop is the Texas voter ID law, affecting more than 14 million voters this election cycle. The 5th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals is poised to take another look at the issue in coming months, but both sides are at odds over its continuing enforcement. The ID requirements were used during the Texas primary last month, as well as the 2014 elections.
The high court case is Veasey v. Abbott (15A999).
Fox news. Dismissed....... 😛

Yep, Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, The Associated Press, Reuters and all the other legitimate news outlets reported the Supreme Courts ruling against obama, the naacp and the other hate groups.
The left-wing "news (mostly opinion) rags barely mentioned it.
Hardly a wonder why you haven't a clue.
The only "hate" on here is from you............

And yet another court threw obama and the other hate groups out on their ass again.
obama fails again.
So, when you said (or fox said) "denied an emergency request from a coalition of Latino advocacy groups and Democratic lawmakers who say the measure is discriminatory", you meant Obama? Funny how he is somehow responsible for everything, but the last president wasn't responsible for anything..... talk about clueless....
You have increased Sang's karma by one point.
And obama and the liberal hate groups effort to push voter fraud is slapped down again.
I looked up "clueless" in the dictionary and saw your last post....... 😛

What’s Behind the GOP Witch Hunt for Voter Fraud
At some point during the Florida 2000 recount debacle partisans realized anew that razor-thin margins can be turned by manipulation of voting rules.
By Michael Waldman | March 30, 2016
The following is adapted from Michael Waldman’s new book, The Fight to Vote.
In 2016 American democracy is under significant pressure, facing trends it has not seen in decades. The cracks first began to show in the antic days of the Florida recount in Bush v. Gore. The recount fiasco surely was an extraordinary occurrence, the only time since 1876 that a presidential election had drawn so close (and the only time since 1888 that the winner of the popular vote would lose the Electoral College). But it also revealed something much more mundane. Florida’s election system had rotted as if touched by the state’s humidity: at every level it was rife with error and prone to abuse. There was much work to be done in the decade after Florida. But that’s not what happened.
Instead conservative activists focused on one thing that hadn’t occurred: voter fraud, specifically voter impersonation at the polls. The remedies sought for this phantom threat have a very tangible consequence: they make it harder to vote, in ways that especially affect Democrats.
Of course American history offers ample evidence of election fraud — that is, misconduct organized by party officials or other political operatives designed to sway results. In the 19th Century they might have stuffed a ballot box; in the 20th Century there might have been an attempt to manipulate absentee ballots (for example, by filling them out for patients at a nursing home). Purportedly independent political committees with names that obscure funding sources also pose the risk of illegality. But voter fraud — especially impersonation at the polling place — remains exceedingly rare. After all, the candidate who benefits gains little from one more vote, but the costs to the voter, if caught, are high.
In Wisconsin, where a single improper vote can bring a $10,000 fine and three years in prison, a federal judge tartly noted that “a person would have to be insane to commit voter impersonation fraud.†As for the fear that noncitizens and undocumented immigrants are voting in droves, that too poses a logical problem; few individuals would trek from home, find their way across the border, evade capture, then march into a government office and declare their name and address.
Justin Levitt of Loyola University writes, “Voter fraud, in particular, has the feel of a bank heist caper: roundly condemned but technically fascinating, and sufficiently lurid to grab and hold headlines.†It is also like a bank robbery in another way: such heists, once common, are no longer a significant problem. Technology has improved the security of vaults, and bank robbers now routinely get caught. Facing the cost-benefit analysis, would-be Bonnie and Clydes no longer try their luck. (In contrast electronic theft from financial institutions is sky high.)
The focus on fraud has deep roots in founding-era worries that the poor would sell their votes and in Gilded Age fears expressed by Protestants about immigrant voters. Today it is embedded within the modern conservative movement.
I'm not trying to protect anyone. I just don't see the problem. 31 incidents out of a billion votes? Yet this has become a priority?
That's 31 too many. Don't support voter fraud, support voter ID laws.
If gun control laws don't work, how do you expect voter ID laws to work?

31 incidents of supposed voter fraud out of a billion votes is too many, but 93 mass shootings so far in 2016 is not enough to worry about, apparently.

It's pretty apparent that no laws work, really.

Easy.
Voter ID laws, upheld by the courts, are enforced at the polling places.
Gun control laws don’t work because obama refuses to enforce them.

Your 31 number out of a billion comes from a liberal opinion piece by a writer that supports voter fraud.
The opinion piece is also a flat out lie. You posted this falsehood awhile back and I was easily able to destroy it.
Every four years thousands of dead people vote. Every time a State tries to clean up their voter rolls they are sued by left-wing activists.
Acorn alone was responsible for tens of thousands or fraudulent votes.
The California obamacare exchange sent voter registration forms to enrollees that had the party affiliation box pre-checked for the democratic party.
The obama administration has been signing up illegal aliens to vote and again, with forms that had the party affiliation box pre-checked for the democratic party.
Your 93 mass shootings so far in 2016 is also bullshit. If you use The FBI definition of mass shooting it is when there are four or more victims. According to publically published FBI statistics over 90% of the mass shootings this year and in previous years are well over 90% are committed by criminals using illegal guns.
The liberals continue to scream for gun control legislation but not one ever proposes legislation that will stop the criminals or get the illegal guns off the streets.
If you really want mass shooting to cease you would be calling for obama to enforce the laws already on the books but of course you don’t.
