I'm kinda wondering what difference picture ID will make, since most often, the individuals running the book sign-ins at the polls are about 987 yrs old and I have to read my voter's registration card to them because they can't read it...what's the difference please?.....And I do think these people are offering a valuable service to deterre fraud...and maybe it was their day-off as door-greeter at Wal-Mart....and I also have an issue with the idea that we, as American citizens should be able to vote anonymously (which makes me question the whole idea of pollsters outside the actual polls).....I'm torn....If you aren't a citizen, no vote allowed.....Fraudulent votes cast, on behalf of dead citizens, no vote allowed.....

Everybody ought to vote by absentee ballot anyway.

Maybe it could be possible to register and vote in elections on line. pre-registration of course. social security numbers, security questions, paswords and secure site, that kind of thing. Then we don't have to worry about the wal-mart greeters or pollsters at the poll sites.

Supreme Court upholds voter ID law - Politics - MSNBC.com

updated 10:50 a.m. CT, Mon., April. 28, 2008

WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ruled Monday that states can require voters to produce photo identification without violating their constitutional rights, validating Republican-inspired voter ID laws.

In a splintered 6-3 ruling, the court upheld Indiana's strict photo ID requirement, which Democrats and civil rights groups said would deter poor, older and minority voters from casting ballots. Its backers said it was needed to prevent fraud.

It was the most important voting rights case since the Bush v. Gore dispute that sealed the 2000 election for George W. Bush. But the voter ID ruling lacked the conservative-liberal split that marked the 2000 case.
In Nc, Mexicans just need two of 6 forms of Mexican ID to get a Nc Id. With that they can register to vote so we need to go further to ensure only US citizens are voting. Bad certainly had some valid points on who should not be allowed to vote.

These people are volunteers (saddly) I think if they (the government) want to make pollsters and voters anonymous, there should be by drawing, the same way as jury duties....have to be citizens with birth ciertificates and drivers' licenses....democratic....YOU belong here and CAN VOTE...I'm tired of the fraud going on and the parties allowing the pratice.....I am pulled from my job to participate in jury duty and isn't that supposed to be part of a demoratic government?

You people are disgusting fascists. You're not Americans you're Nazi pigs. You would be more comfortable in Nazi Germany or Burma where this kind of sadistic hatred was the norm.


Truth is the decision was called "The cure for a disease that did not exist." Studies have shown that there is no real voter fraud in Indiana. Republicans were all for it because it excises democrats out of their American right to vote with the usual dirty tricks served as genuine concern (see: WMD).

If you read the replies to this post you can see that most who adhere to the recent neo-con status quo are in complete contempt for American freedoms and the right to vote. These people are unabashed fascist pigs who (how did they put it?) "hate our way of life".

You people are Nazis and should be kicked out of America to some fascist Mussolini police state where you would be more comfortable.

The Supreme Court once again goes the wrong way with the Constitution. They need to be shaken up by the disenfranchised.

Yes the valid ID is a good start....I just believe the conflict of interest that is present in our voting process...is what has gotten our country into the predicament were presently in.

When people are given the chance to vote themselves a pay raise....they usually do.

I'll vote for that. If I can add--for voting in regards to city government....if you dont own property...you don't get to vote.

Believe me--liberals will always find a way to cheat......we have to at least make it more difficult.

Even if you don't have your driver's license with you--your car still starts....but you will think twice before driving (voting) without it

The deterrent is only as effective as the risk/punishment is harsh

Fines and jailtime for anyone caught voting illegally......I like it

Which part of the Constitution guarantees the right to vote?

Every time a Democratic looses an election there is always claims of voter fraud. 2000, 2004 are two examples. In 2000 a Democratic even tried to steal the presidency by SUING. Yet when an attempt at preventing fraud is made liberals SUE to stop the prevention of fraud.

It is time that false claims at voter fraud by either side is treated as harshly as actual voter fraud as the attempt is to undermine legitimate elections. I have no doubt that liberals would sue to stop that as well.

More republican weaseling and dirty tricks.

I really don't have to post anything if you are exposing your fascist views about which Americans should be allowed to vote and which not? You people are nuts. Are you for bringing back negro slavery as well?


Fact is the Supreme Court just voted for and approved a defacto poll tax. They just made an unofficial declaration of a take-over of our government by non-democratic forces.
