To show what a fake all this nonsense over voter ID being some kind of “Jim Crow” law that prevents minorities from voting, there's this. One of the states wrote a statute requiring a photo ID to be required when the person presented themselves at the polling place. The libs said it was unfair to the poor and disadvantaged who were afraid of government and couldn't possibly travel to get the ID. The ID was free of charge and issued through the DMV as just an ID card. If the person could not access the DMV, all they had to do was call for a free ride to the facility and back. All they had to do was present a bill or envelope with their name on it and the ID was issued. The lefties still said it was discrimination because they couldn't cheat.

Well, there you have it. The law discriminates against poor people who don't have access to a phone.
