From sports to politics to business, black leaders are beginning a counteroffensive against Stacey Abrams' views on voting
Mark Robinson knows a thing or two about the political appeal of voter ID. After all, he became North Carolina's first ever African-American lieutenant governor last November running as a Republican who vowed to restore voter identification for the state's elections.
And he won, even as the GOP's top of the ticket fell to Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper.
So Robinson chafes when he hears national Democrats like Joe Biden and Stacey Abrams claim that asking for an ID to vote is as disenfranchising as the voter suppression tactics of the Jim Crow era.
"That black people can't get an ID to vote — and quite frankly, a free ID, which the government has offered, to vote — is just absolute nonsense," Robinson told Just the News earlier this month. "And I reject that wholeheartedly. And I believe most of the people of North Carolina do as well."
It isn't just North Carolina. Voters nationwide overwhelmingly support voter ID as an election integrity measure.
A Just the News-Scott Rasmussen poll in January found a whopping 77% of Americans support mandatory voter ID, including 70% of Democrats and 72% of African-Americans.

p
Democrats steal their own primaries from each other.
It never amounts to anything.
So true
1 to 2 is a 100% increase. You’re correct their numbers are pretty much insignificant at this point
Maybe they are getting tired of being told they are too stupid to get an ID?
I hope that black people see that the Democrat party is always empowering the black people who are criminals and radicals, never people who make good citizens.
That's what they think of you Black people....they think you are STUPID and don't CARE if they call you TOO STUPID!.....SUCKERS!
Does this mean that Georgia will get the All-Star game back?
Of course, not.
It is purely racism that says minorities are not smart enough to get personal ID at no costs. People need to know it well enough to slip it into any argument.
Wouldn’t you be?
Earlier today on another forum I pointed out, again, that the same ID is used to buy beer as is to vote.
To this a fellow replied that drinking is not a right like voting is.
I corrected him about that and didn’t even bother to mock him about black persons apparently being non-drinkers in his estimation.
As well as not driving, smoking, ever riding a plane, etc....
I would be so DEEPLY offended by that. It is truly the “soft bigotry of low expectations.” The Dems are effectively saying “you are too stupid to get an ID to vote” and follow the simple rules of society to safeguard election integrity. How racist and insulting is that? I honestly cannot believe they get away with that sh!t.
Anybody know the statistics on how many US citizens do not have some form of photo ID?
It's insulting to black citizens to pretend they're all 'sharecroppers' without the wit or knowledge to get a Free ID offered by the state. Biden thinks it's 1850? Is that the problem?
Blacks even go to college in our country - become teachers, lawyers and professors...
I don't understand why so many black people stay with white liberal 'elites'...
Voter ID is the low hanging fruit.
Deep State is delighted to keep the discussion in Voter ID.
Because Deep State knows, thanks to some handy dandy software, that even if voters are legal voters, elections can still be stolen.
