Can I ask a stupid question? Why don’t the liberals organize efforts to make sure their voters get the proper ID so that they can comply with the law??

Liberals complain that college students can’t use their student ID to vote in college towns, for example. But these same students have a driver’s license, and can vote in their actual home town via absentee ballot.

Liberals complain that some elderly people never got a government issued photo ID. Why not be generous with your time, and take the older folks to the DMV or other office, where they can get their government issued photo ID? That would be a generous thing for liberals to do, to help someone be eligible to vote.

The alleged barriers to voting are either not real or are greatly exaggerated by liberals.

Wow, first Florida cleanses its voter registry and now this in PA. That’s two important states that are going to lose thousands of votes for the Collective.

November might be more fun than we expect.

Reading the comments it is clear to me that minority, poor and elderly voters must be too stupid to get an ID. I’m sure they all collect food stamps yet somehow said minority, poor and elderly voters are not disenfranchised from that entitlement. Every time I hear this disenfranchisement argument I just want to kick a lib-tard in the teeth. Sorry, it just makes no sense to me how there people can actually believe their ridiculous arguments.
