Dear Leader sent his message, don’t $@^# with Dear Leader. The Judge is probably a card carrying Marxist anyway.

...less likely to have photo IDs or the documents needed to get them.

It sounds like this turd is describing illegal aliens.

Why Do Many Minorities Lack ID?

Investigating one of the big factors in the debate over those new voter-ID laws.

How do I get a free photo ID?
Posted in Voter Photo ID Law
Voter Photo ID provisions of 2011 Wisconsin Act 23 are currently enjoined orders of by two Wisconsin circuit courts. Those decisions have been appealed by the Attorney General, but until they are resolved, no photo ID is required to receive a ballot in Wisconsin.

However, Wisconsin law still requires the Department of Transportation to provide free ID cards to any individual who will be at least 18 years of age on the date of the next election and who requests a free ID for the purpose of voting. The regular fee is $28.

For information about getting a state identification card, please visit the DOT’s website:

http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/drivers/drivers/apply/idcard.htm

Due to the need to provide a birth certificate and/or other documents to receive a DOT-issued ID, individuals should start the process of obtaining a statutory identification well in advance of an election at which they wish to vote. You may also consult our pamphlet on how to get a free state ID card.

“One more state told that they don’t have states rights. Maybe it’s time the states BLOCK these federal judges.”

You nailed it and it needs to be repeated.

I wish that for once, JUST ONCE, we would have a Republican governor, who would issue a governor’s executive ruling that would immediately declare the unelected activist judge’s ruling to be null & void. We need Repub governors to just grow a pair of balls and fight back against these judicial bastards! I am so sick of this liberal bullsh_t! We need CW II more than ever!

Actually, Walker was just waiting for the old Commie to make his predictable ruling

He's indicated he'll likely call a special session to vote on a new law just like the already Supreme Court tested Indiana model.

My understanding was that the Wisconsin law was already modeled almost verbatim of the Indiana law. Liberals only pay attention to established case law when it benefits them. Otherwise they will ignore laws or rulings that they disagree with, just like that RAT bastard, commie muzzzlim pig 0dumb0 and will enforce only liberal activist, pro-homo, pro-racist, pro-muzzzie laws. BASTARDS!

Of course. How is one to keep control of the rabble if their vote actually matters?

...unfairly burdens poor and minority voters.

That's a laugher.
EVERYONE knows the only reason to oppose voter ID is so the Demmunist Party can more easily steal elections.
EVERYONE includes this corrupt judge.

Why do we need legislature bodies anymore when the judiciary now makes all the laws?

That Judge needs to be dragged off the bench.

Do the poor and minorities buy beer? You need ID

Do they buy cold medicine? They need ID

Do they cash a check at a bank OR WalMart OR any number of check cashing stores? THEY NEED ID!

Jesus Christ this is making me feel like I’m taking crazy pills! What the Hell is WRONG with this idiots who are SUPPOSED to uphold the LAW?!

In a sane society under the Founding Father's these "judges" would be arrested, charged with treason and executed.

Governor Walker should override it anyway.

Same as in Pennsylvania; we passed Voter ID by about 70% approval, and some POS lib judge - appointed by Democrats - strikes it down.

Enforce it anyway. We have the right to protect our votes from Democrat fraud.

A federal judge in Milwaukee has struck down Wisconsin's voter Identification law, saying it unfairly burdens poor and minority voters.

Is she declaring it unconstitutional? Or does that even matter any more?

We should support an Article V convention of the states and limit these politicians in black dresses among all others but the President to 12 year terms...no more of this serve for life crap ....... Elsewhere. the USSC gave considerably more respect to vote by citizens...this should be appealed.

We don’t have a rule of law in this country. We have rule by judges.

By that rationale, laws that require people to have photo ID to purchase firearms from federally licensed dealers, or obtain concealed carry permits, violate the Second Amendment.
