Pittsburgh Tribune Review: If the commonwealth complies with Holder’s demands, DOJ will certainly institute yet another costly Voter ID legal action. The DOJ, the ACLU and the NAACP have a well-timed, well-coordinated, multicourt strategy designed to burden each state brazen enough to ask for validation that a purported voter is, in fact, who he says he is. In Holder’s game, only those who need the votes of the dead or of fictional characters are winners. Secretary Aichele — you don’t have to play, so please don’t.”
“Holder’s Pennsylvania actions are just plays out of a well-established political playbook. Play One — ignore that voter fraud exists; Play Two — file numerous, expensive legal actions; and Play Three — call anyone in favor of an open election a racist. Play Three conjures the worst of our history just to foreclose mature debate.
