Hamburger Suppression at Wendy’s

A Election Law Center reader sent this photograph from a Kansas Wendy’s. 


Demanding photo identification to purchase a hamburger with large bills will certainly cause fast food disenfranchisement. 

Perhaps not.  Recent local elections in Kansas debunked the claims by voter fraud deniers at the Brennan Center that millions of Americans lack photo ID.  From the Washington Times:

“In local elections this spring in 50 Kansas counties, of 65,813 votes cast, just 81 people showed up at the polls lacking a photo ID, Mr. Kobach said. ‘And most of those had a photo ID but just forgot to bring it. They were all given provisional ballots and could later bring in a photo ID to make it count.’”
