Commonwealth Court Judge Robert E. Simpson, a Republican, rejected the complaint that sought an injunction to prevent the law from taking effect. The measure, approved by the Republican-controlled legislature last spring, requires voters to show a state-approved photo ID such as a driver’s license in order to vote. The ACLU and other groups..

Treyfish (OP) User ID: 14756837 United States 08/15/2012 12:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Pennsylvania voters must show photo ID at polls, judge rules ..The decision is a setback for voting-rights advocates, who sued on behalf of a dozen, mostly elderly voters who do not drive and do not have an ID card that will allow them to vote. But Judge Robert Simpson, who held a trial on the issue, said he was not convinced the photo ID rule will prove an insurmountable barrier for many voters, and he said he was reluctant to strike down a law passed by the Legislature. He also said the state was taking steps this summer to help voters obtain the required identification. “I am not convinced any qualified elector need be disfranchised by Act 18,” he wrote, citing the law's legislative title. Voters who cannot obtain a photo ID may be able to cast an absentee or provisional ballot, he added.... [link to www.latimes.com] Thanks for thee Pin! |

Spirituality is the opposite of religion, religion is a substitute for spirituality. Spirituality is a direct connection to Creator The Most high. Anyone who inflicts pain on others will suffer themself from that pain. Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil. |

Quoting: Oh Kay I bet a PA photo ID is only around 10 dollars and they have two months to get it. Free if you say you're getting one to vote. $13.50 fee for acquiring an Identification Card will be waived for individuals completing the Oath/ Affirmation Voter ID form. Sarah |
Fishy User ID: 1391023 United States 08/15/2012 03:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A photo id cost money and it is against the law to prohibit people from voting for monetary reasons. Surely you care about all US citizens having the opportunity to vote. It is elitist to think that someone shouldn't be able to vote if they can't afford a photo id. People ARE that poor in our country! I understand the idea that everyone needs an id to vote but a poor and/or homelessness person should not have to choose whether they should feed their family or vote!! |
