I don't think it is unreasonable to prove that you are who you say you are at the polls.<BR/><BR/>What I am opposed to is the government charging money to receive photo identification that is a requirement to vote, because at the most basic level that is akin to a poll tax, especially for folks who either cannot afford to or simply choose not to own a vehicle (and thus have no reason for getting a driver's license).Vox Populihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09174941325997674801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-31728223138240995832008-10-10T15:40:00.000-05:002008-10-10T15:40:00.000-05:00You can not blame the Democrats that the republicans routinely fail to staff the voting places.....it is hard workd and all the republicans want to do is complain and scream FRAUD when they have no idea if there is any or not.artfugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364503656694166926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-73612592603705469502008-10-10T11:44:00.000-05:002008-10-10T11:44:00.000-05:00AI, don't forget the absentee voters. There is nothing stopping someone on behalf of a "inactive" voter casting a ballot for that person if their on the list. The only precaution is the signature under oath. If you saw the CNN Lake County ACORN story, people would realize that's not much of a hurdle to stop fraud.<BR/><BR/>So is Vox embracing the photo ID law now? I thought that was a Republican "voter suppression" effort. Now he seems to think to be touting it as a needed tool against fraud.Paul K.

Are you surprised that there are precincts where only Ds are working?Gary R.

There should be a Republican Clerk and Judge at each precinct in the county. If something is not being followed they need to notify your party bosses and the Republicans need to get their lawyers to that precinct ASAP.Vox Populihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09174941325997674801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-28149013732868411952008-10-10T10:42:00.000-05:002008-10-10T10:42:00.000-05:00Corruption is as corruption does. It wouldn't surprise me if Bart Peterson's Mexican Consulate located in the city's Union Station assists by issuing its fake "matricula consular" ID card to show that people such as "Johns Jimmy" with a registered address of Jimmy Johns Sandwich Shop get their "ID". With the fake ID using ACORN's (Obama campaign) false voter registrations, they can perform the "Chicago Vote."Indy4U2Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16321040357893518968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-77926908409531971932008-10-10T10:26:00.000-05:002008-10-10T10:26:00.000-05:00Are their no Republican poll workers in these "heavily Democratic precincts"? Why are the two Republican clerks and judges not insisting on checking voter ID's? Perhaps the GOP should send observers and challengers to these districts that are perpetrating fraud. If voter fraud is so common in this largely Republican state with the toughest voter ID laws in the country, it must be worse elsewhere. Can we even trust our election results at all?Eclecticvibehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15848437748997209589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-15909306488130403032008-10-10T07:18:00.000-05:002008-10-10T07:18:00.000-05:00Even the least developed 3rd world countries deal with fraud with a simple solution - indelible ink applied to the voter's finger.Downtown Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239811599722585898noreply@blogger.com
