PA voters will not be required to show ID to vote in November.

That's not official yet of course, but just yesterday the REPUBLICANS on the state supreme court practically ordered the lower-conrt judge to reverse his ruling upholding the voter ID law.

Even if the judge stands his ground and refuses to cave to the GOP-e, one of two things will happen on election day:

1. An 'emergency' injunction will prohibit polling places from requiring ID to vote.

2. Polling places simply will ignore the law, especially in ghetto precincts.

If it turns out to be #2, don't think for a minute that Republican poll watchers (more useless than tits on a bull) will complain much, and if they do no action will be taken anyway.

Perhaps, but people were saying the same thing about Wisconsin and we KNEW there were people from out of state being bussed in to vote illegally. But Walker won by a big enough margin that cheating didn’t matter. If Romney can do that in PA, no problem. But if PA goes from losing by 10% to losing by a tiny percentage, that almost certainly means that the other big swing states have flipped, and that means President Romney with the PA irregularities being a footnote in history.

IIRC, there’s a popular vote percentage margin that, if a candidate crosses it, guarantees an electoral college win. I think it’s 2%.
