State Board Votes To Outlaw Voluntary Voter ID Board Said Practice Could Confuse, Intimidate Voters Updated: 12:54 pm CDT May 10, 2010

MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin elections officials are quashing a movement by citizen activists that encouraged voters to voluntarily show photo identifications at polling places. [snip]

Oh, good lord...

I need a photo ID at the Seven Eleven, or just about every other transaction I do.

But this obvious requirement would interfere with the massive voter fraud necessary to keep the democrat party in power.

[antceecee]

I have always pulled out ID and shown it when voting. In the 70’s and 80’s no one questioned it. In the 90’s to now they look at you like your crazy.

[Drango]

voluntary ID is intimidating to others????

[Minus_The_Bear]

How can Democrats bus in criminals to vote at multiple polling places if laws are in place?

THEY ARE TURNING THIS COUNTRY INTO IRAN!

[VeniVidiVici]

Here in FL the old ladies checking you in to vote will beat you up and throw your body outside if you try to vote without an ID.

[null and void]

Fine. I always do. Arrest me.

Most people pull out a DL when registering anyway.

It should be a law. This bit about voter intimidation is a red herring to keep voter ID from preventing illegals and the dead from voting and to keep a lot of Dems from multiple voting. I want it to be the law everywhere. This is another place where wimpy Repubs have dropped the ball, speaking of which, I wish those good old boy RINOs would find a pair of brass ones and some muscle to go with them.

I am tired of "crossing the aisle"--it is a one way street crossed solely by RINOs.

I am tired of prissy, soft shoed RINOs --I HATE effete! It is not cool.

There are Wisconsin legislators who voted for this are any of them yours ?

[afraidfortherepublic]

This was an Accountability (Elections) Board decision. I believe they were all appointed by the Governor, “Bingo” Doyle (D). I call them the NON-Accountability Board. The legislature passed photo voter ID 3 times, as I remember, and teh Governor vetoed it each time. I think that photo Id was also passed by the people in a referendum too, if I remember correctly — much like concealed carry.

[vaudine]

No. I live in AL. We are losing a Repub gov.to term limits and likely to get another Repub. The statehouse has too many Dems that have taken up squatters rights; maybe some of them will go this year.

Wisconsin does not have a governor. We have a godfather!

[jmaroneps37]

Democrats keep spitting in our face and reminding us to vote in November.

[Wisconsinlady]

The problem is they are trying to make sure legitimate votes are not counted in November. Wisconsin is set up for widespread cheating.

[griffin]

Wasn’t aware there was a vote...just a organized movement...

[mosesdapoet]

This is some sort of a election commission board which ruled to deny individual voters requesting that a photo ID be presented by the individual claiming to be that person before voting. In some cases because someone previously voted in their name and they were denied a ballot.
I’m not sure if this is a governors appointed board or part of the bi-partisan board of elections.

.The way it works and I’m familiar with the Illinois system. So many members of each political party have seats on a board the control of which depends on each party strength who controls the House or Senate or the governorship etc. The members are selected from each party then are usually presented to the state senate for approval.
The report is the so called republicans voted with the socialists to defeat the check ID request from individual voters..Who were they ? And where are they from ?
