“Citing concerns over voter disenfranchisement, Hanover County’s NAACP and Democratic Party are opposing the county’s quest to bail out of requirements under the Voting Rights Act of 1965.” Predictably, in their opposition letter to the Department of Justice, the Hanover County Democratic Committee expressed “uncertainty” about Virginia’s new Voter ID law. Even with voter ID cards being mailed to all registered voters, the Democrats are “concerned that some voters who must cast provisional ballots will be unable to find time or transportation to appear before the Board of Elections to validate their identity.” That’s assuming they were able to find the time and transportation to get to the polls but were not able to bring along the free ID delivered to them? Twenty-eight other Virginia localities have already successfully bailed out of Section 5.

This voter does not have to appear before the Electoral Board. The voter can email, fax, mail or bring in proof of ID to the registrar’s office.

If we believe 14 million members of this economy are here illegally already, why would you not expect an ID to vote as with the many other circumstances ID are mandatory required already ? Surely we need ID cards to collect SS, SS disability, Medicaid and Medicare and other identified social needs assistances services we legal voting tax payers provide to worthy AMERICANS.
Remind me why we have Death Certificate repositories and Retired “deceased” Social Security number data bases!
DON’T we!
I wonder if illegal alien citizens understand what they should be missing by not becoming an American citizen when they pay substantially into the SS package and if the system works are not eligible
The Justice Department and the current administration has stained credibility on so many fronts, why stop here but for the Voting publics right to vote un diluted and in the open. thank God for one person ONE VOTE and a court beginning to see moral conviction of character as a missing pillars of a demoralized society of once proud working class deserving of Americas help but used as pons at the hands of socialism.Mike from VT
