JEFFERSON CITY | Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon on Friday vetoed legislation that would have required voters to show photo identification at the polls and allowed some ballots to be cast before Election Day.
In his formal veto message, Nixon said the bill would disenfranchise voters...

Would an override be possible?
Put a photo on their EBT cards.
The ONLY reason to oppose voter ID, is to SUPPORT VOTER FRAUD!
Republicans are in control but...we have RINOS. Nixon vetoed the redistricting map and that veto was overridden so..hopefully that will happen in this case.
A Democrat in favor of enabling voter fraud?? Gee...seems IMPOSSIBLE, doesn’t it!!!
eww that’s a great idea!
The Great State of Misery!
Exactly
You really have to wonder why the Republican leadership has not made this a big issue in the last dozen elections. I guess the real answer to that question is too unthinkable since only two reasons come quickly to mind, stupidity, or complicity.
“...disenfranchise voters... “
This is code speak that means “Stop Democrat voting fraud.”
If they can get some kind of ID to get food stamps, public housing, SSI, Medicaid..., they can show an ID for voting. If they work, they should already have an ID. The only “disenfranchised voters” are illegals who shouldn’t be voting, and military personnel who Democrats manage to exclude.
All Dems should be run out on a rail (even the dead ones)
I’ll take my state over your dumbass state anyday
Actually it is code speak for allowing fraud. and you’re right on about the ID. It’s all a huge smoke screen just like “It’s for the children” BS. Make it sound like they are doing the ‘righteous’ thing.
How about the ‘disenfranchising’ of legal voters because their vote is
being negated by other’s illegal votes?
What crap. Fraud at the polls. Fraud in the White House.
Foregive me if I am wrong,
BUT
Isn’t Missouri one of the states that is about as dirty as Chicago when election time comes???
Of course political machines have been voting dead peopleforever. I think Aaron Burr resorted to this in 1800 after he set up Tammany Hall. But the main thing is to organize down to local and get people to the polls. Next thing is to get observers into the polling places and make sure that the cheating is kept to a minimum. All this takes boots on the ground. Inevitably some precincts are as hard to police as a Taliban village.
The fraud, as in other states is extensive in the ‘Urban’ areas. St. Louis and Kansas City are problem areas. The remainder of the state, is less likely to experience the level of fraud that is present in those areas. You know...Holder’s peeps live in those areas.
Terrific analogy and so true.
Boehner and many others act like neutered servants of the empire instead of stand-up men fulfilling their Constitutional oaths.
