Second, Ohio’s existing law already prevents multiple votes. Oh, and HB 159 doesn’t change the law for identification requirements for absentee ballots!

To those who want to argue that is is not discriminatory or if you can't afford a ID you shouldn't vote, have fun in court with that one. Even FFT wouldn't take that one.

Maybe 5 questions that ask basic things such as "How many stars on the on the US flag?" or "What branch of government is the president in?". Really basic, make it multiple choice, and if you don't get 4/5, you don't get to vote. Now, THAT would eliminate a shitload of the democratic base.

No one is arguing that, that is why the state is giving the IDs for free if you can't afford it. Way to argue a point no one ever made.

2. Cost taxpayers money unnecessary.

3.Be eventually ruled unconstitutional.

I could say I was surprised that you support this specific legislation but I doubt you would understand the irony of it all.

If this was unconstitutional so would registering to vote. Or I could say that you are just talking out of your ass because you have nothing. The irony of it all is that this harms as many rights as registering to vote. Please tell us how unconstitutional that is and how much uness. taxpayer $$ that spends.

Oklahoma is just as strict BTW

So again, tell me how this is more unconstitutional than requiring you to register to vote?

The Indiana Supreme Court upheld the state's voter identification law in a 4-1 decision Wednesday, saying the Legislature has the power to require voters to show a photo ID at the polls.

I hope that didn't go over your head.....


BTW, I am not confused, I believe you are. Can you please tell me how registering to vote is constitutional in your eyes and having to show state ID is not?

Bigdogg;723235 wrote:Sorry watching basketball and plotting a trip to West Chester. I fixed it. Other then being a waste of money I don't see it as being necessary to show a pictured government ID to vote. I think a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, or paycheck in lieu of a photo i.d. would be just fine. I am just not in favor at making laws to correct things that are not problems. Felt the same way when they were passing laws about burning the Flag. That's it.
