Freeped as requested, sir! Carry on.
78% yes. keep hitting it!
Should Texas keep its voter ID law?
78% Yes; we need safeguards against voting fraud. 3880 votes
22 % No; it makes voting more difficult for some people. 1113 votes
Wonder how long MSN will leave it up? There is no way they like those numbers.
And MSN readers are hard core lefties by and large.
(((ping)))
“it makes voting more difficult for some people”
Do the dead count as “people”?
So it will cost inordinate time and money.
The Dept of Injustice has plenty of both.
Besides - what’s money to a pig?
22% No; it makes voting more difficult for some people. 1133 votes
Maybe we should let people vote with their ‘free’ phone. Did they need I.D. for the phone?
Done & done!
To be honest, the entire thing pisses me off. I feel like even voting “yes” is presumptuous enough to get my butt righteously kicked up between my ears. It’s Texan business and nobody else’s, especially not some eye-liner-wearing back-east metrosexual who figures a web site poll means anything. To my friends in Texas, mea culpa.
It is about keeping the ComDems in power. To them, no price is too great to accomplish that. And, if they don’t stay in power, many will likely go to prison.
May it be so.
Would the picture in the obituary or a snapshot of the tombstone do?
The Dems will be investing in ID machines for their voting buses
Voter ID laws are just too intrusive and complicated for blacks to comprehend, but they have no problem signing up for Obamacare.
Worked for LBJ in Duvall County. He stole the election from Coke Stevenson in box 13 with the help of George Pharr. They voted the graveyard in alphabetical order. It really happened.
But, I forgot, they did not require a photo ID back then. hee hee hee
It’s not that Texas should keep it. It’s that the rest should adopt one.
Agreed.
Texas needs to fight them. Every time we win it eats Eric the Corrupt up....make the sorry POS eat crow time and time again.
Still same percentages 1000 more votes recorded.
YES!
Greg Abbott is just the man to do that. And he will. He has been a great Texas Attorney General. Focused and Effective.
I hope he is the next Governor of Texas.
See, I wondered how long they would keep it open.
They will never admit how bad they are loosing this.
Voted. 78% favor Texas. Over 5,000 votes cast. Just wait. By the next morning, it’ll be 78-22% the other way and THEN the lefties at MSDNC will cite the poll after they’ve stuffed the ballot overnight.
Both MSN & Obozo are consummate Liars.
I hope he is the next Governor of Texas.”
He has, indeed, been an awesome AG. But there are some things leaking out every now and then about positions he has taken on issues such as his desire to increase green card holders in Texas. Me things there are some other sides of him that we may find out about in the coming months. Just color me very, very cautious.
78% yes, 22% no.....
My daughter & son-in law know him from meetings. They speak highly of him.
His actions as AG make me admire his legal skills and his defence of Texas.
I have heard some of the criticism he has drawn and discount most of it.
Yes, it is hard to find a good POL. I understand your caution.
If the US ever needed adult leadership, it is now.
God Bless the US, God Bless Texas, God Bless your family and mine.
Well, Shazzam! Still at 78% pro-Texas this morning. Guess this poll is getting buried and/or dismissed as “non-scientific”.
FReeped!
78% is still on the page. Are they afraid to update it with more YES votes?
Well, duh. Of course it should.
It has been exactly the same percentage since I posted the poll link.
Something seriously wrong with this.
it will not allow me to even cast the vote - circle just sits there. THEY MUST NOT HAVE LIKED WHAT THEY WERE SEEING SO THYE JUST PULLED THE PLUG.
Should Texas keep its voter ID law?
78 %
Yes; we need safeguards against voting fraud.
5848 votes
22 %
No; it makes voting more difficult for some people.
1624 votes
They’re probably trying to keep the “no” votes in the same proportion with the many “yes” votes, so as to keep them from losing ground.
I am surprised that the “yes” votes are so few. In Texas, it should be closer to the high 90s percent.
And I would say that anyone who would have trouble voting, if required to get a **free** photo ID, is too dang stupid to be voting at all.
78 % Yes; we need safeguards against voting fraud.
5854 votes
22 % No; it makes voting more difficult for some people.
1627 votes
[smiles] Indeed.
Thought I was too late to the party!! But it weren’t so.
78 % Yes; we need safeguards against voting fraud.
22 % No; it makes voting more difficult for some people.
The numbers have changed, but the percentages have been the same since I posted it.
This poll is evidently doctored. Or they simply closed it because they did not like the numbers.
