Btw, Canada . . . Requires ID to vote, so there's that.
Yes. But if one doesn't have one of dozens of acceptable forms of ID there's this....
.3) If your ID does not have your current address, take an oath
Show two pieces of ID with your name and have someone who knows you attest to your address. This person must show proof of identity and address, be registered in the same polling division, and attest for only one person.

But thats not whats on offer in Wisconsin is it?
Oh, the Wisconsin law ruled constitutional by the USSC? That law?
And, actually, yes, you dishonest and lazy person, provisional votes are accepted in WI.

And, it's the fault of both parties. In this case, it's the Democrats who only want the issue and not a solution.
Voting fraud is a non-existent problem. It didn't really need a solution. And especially not one that disenfranchises people. (I notice you doggedly ignore this comment and fail to respond in any way. I admire your ability to persistently deny reality...)
I have refused to address it because it's something we've discussed before. And, it's common sense: you can't detect voter fraud if you don't look for it, and you can't look for it if you don't KNOW who voted.
This brief article lays it out in a non-partisan way. I suppose it's too much to ask for you to actually think about something though.
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/03/opini ... .html?_r=0 The level of evidence that convinces you that there is election fraud is your ability to imagine that it could happen. (Since the actual reported incidence approaches zero).
Hey, how many voter fraud cases do you want? How much fraud would you accept? How much should Americans accept? How do you find voter fraud unless you check ID?
Don't ignore my questions!!!!!!
The level of evidence that you require to make you believe that some are being unfairly disenfranchised is, on the other hand, an insurmountable mountain.
Bull. I've been poor. I've been busy. I didn't have proper documents.
So, what did I do? I scraped up the money I needed. I went through the process of applying for documents. I got them!
There is no one in the US under the age of 70 who cannot get this done. Further, if you're over 70 and don't have ID, how are you on Medicare? How are you getting your SSI check?
This is all a sham. Anyone can get ID if they want. The one thing they can't get? A truthful answer from a partisan liberal about voter ID.
As usual, rickyp, you're approaching this issue as if you know something. That's your mistake.
