Court Throws Out Indiana Voter ID Law

The Supreme Court okayed it.

But Indiana Appellant Courts says "OH *HELL* NO, we STATE guys will KICK YOUR SUPREME ASSES TO THE CURB.

"Cuz we are TOUGH."

[Scythian]

We're all voting for Democrat's - LOL you stupid dumb gringo's ...

[Political Junkie Too]

Those against the law contend that it keeps poor, older and minority voters from casting ballots.

Why do we keep hearing this excuse every election cycle?

If they are so concerned about the poor, elderly, and minority voters, then why can't someone bus them to the DMV the way they bus them to the polls?

Problem solved once and for all!

HUHHHH.
The Supreme’s said it was constutional...and this LOWER court reverses the SCOTUS. Did I read this wrong?

[allmendream]

Judges have the responsibility of overturning unconstitutional laws.

That is the primary duty of the U.S. Supreme Court; to rule on the Constitutionality of the laws that are passed by Congress.

Please review the separation of (enumerated) powers outlined in the U.S. Constitution.

[GreenLanternCorps]

Did they rule that this violated the Indiana Constitution or the United States Constitution?

The article does not provide critical details.

If the Indiana Constitution, then there is no federal issue.

If the United States Constitution, then I would assume the constitutional question is different than in the previous ruling.

[Lazamataz]

Indeed, I don’t see any other way to avoid an outright slaughter and civil war.

WITHOUT QUESTION.

I await orders.

poor old and black folks seem to be able to come up with ID to apply for welfare, social security, driver’s licenses, cash checks and buy liquor

[NonValueAdded]

Still need ID’s to get in a RAT Town Meeting though ,,, they’ll take your illegal vote but won’t take your guff!

My mom is a precinct committeeman, she is well aware of how easy it is to use the absentee ballot system for fraud. She sits in the courthouse basement with a bunch of other old women for weeks going through and checking every single ballot, while their Democratic counterparts do the same.

[airborne]

LOL!

[ArrogantBustard]

How is 6-3 a “splintered ruling”?

Because that all-holy, infallible oracle "THE PRESS" said so. How dare you question it, you ignorant peon?

[DTogo]

They're unable to go get the ID, but they're more than able to go vote (for a Democrat).

Sure...

Those against the law contend that it keeps poor, older and minority voters from casting ballots.

If you are so removed from society that you do not have a picture ID, then you have no business voting.

PS: Don't forget to tell your friends (and enemies) that police will be in full force at the polls on election day, looking for anyone with warrants, unpaid traffic tickets, or unpaid child support. Vote at your own risk!

[Abathar]

They won’t even give an answer to that question, they just say it does and leaves it up to us to prove otherwise.

[wk4bush2004]

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!! I know my friends in Indiana won’t be happy.

EVERYONE should be required to show ID before they vote. I think they used to have it here in Missouri, before a tyrannical court threw it out.

I always show my ID before I vote. I don’t care if it’s required or not.

It’s common-sense! NO ID, YOU DON’T VOTE!!!!

[tcrlaf]

Been there, done that....

While Absentees are the hole in the system, one the DEMOCRATS in NWI and Indy use to great effect, throwing this whole thing out is a GROSS miscarriage of justice!!

[RasterMaster]

Long past time for tyrants in black to meet the citizens to see what they have to say about it.

[Abathar]

Nope, trying to figure this one out myself.

Dear SJSAMPLE,

Roe v. Wade was actually decided 7 - 2. I don’t know whether or not that is sufficiently “decisive” for you.
