Rachel is discussing the voter ID decision in Pa.

She's on a tear, worth watching if you can.

1. What can the rest of us outside

of PA do to correct this monstrosity?

[nc4bo]

3. I want to know.

Let me tell you, I was so fed up with this that I wrote the WH.

Can't think of anything else that can be done. I really think Pa. and the good citizens there will have to handle it.

4. +1. It's not just the time. It's not just the money.

Some seniors flat-out don't have birth certificates. My dad got one in his thirties by traveling to the state capital with his mom and two aunts who were present at the birth (a 9 hour drive in those days). What do you do when you're a senior and all the witnesses are dead?

2. Turzai clip: Voter law.... "done"...

[malaise]

5. I get so angry every time I see that criminal

I'm trying to figure out in which other democratic country could this madness take place.
We had voter fraud and established a National Electoral Commission . There is no political party that could pull off this criminality today because they don't run the elections and there will be no electronic voting either. paper ballots thank you very much.

I cannot believe I am witnessing this in America - not after Florida 2000.
Every time WiLLIARd and that other ReTHUG scumbag attack Obama, the response should about their public voter suppression and Rmoney's refusal to submit his tax returns.

16. They played that clip at the trial and the judge STILL

said that even though it might be partisan, it is perfectly within the state's right to do it. Mind. Boggling.

6. Conservatives have lost all high ground on patriotism, these actions are traitorous

[Downwinder]

7. Everybody vote by mail.

Put the hurt on the County Clerk's budget. Help out the USPS.

[uponit7771]

8. +1!

[Ilsa]

9. But won't those votes be tossed

because they aren't on voter rolls?

[Downwinder]

13. If the person is registered they are on the rolls.

It will cost the County Clerk about $20 for printing, mailing and processing. Paper ballot, no machine.

[mucifer]

10. I bet a lot of republicans will be pissed when they can't vote.

[madamesilverspurs]

11. This issue was the tipping point

for Mom. She's been a very active Republican for over 70 years, but the Bush years really soured her. She voted for Obama, the first time in her life to vote for a Democrat for president. The Republicans' assaults on women have infuriated her. But it was this scheming to take voting rights away that finally brought her to the decision to end her membership in the party; that official severing took place a couple of months ago. It hurt, she cried. But she's tough, unsurprising for someone who was born at the same time that women got the right to vote in this country.

12. It Could Cost Us the Election

If they can steal Florida (which they have done with alarming regularity), Ohio (which they have done before), and Pennsylvania, we lose.
It's that simple.

[spanone]

14. pennsylvania is one of MANY states

[nc4bo]

15. So what can we do spanone?

This crap feels like an assault, heard some bonehead on Fox news clip on Rachel or Ed's show saying voting is a privilege!!!



Who is going to help US fight this? Who? The only ones that seem to care about our right to vote are the damn Republicans.

[Ruby the Liberal]

17. They are filing an appeal with the Supreme Court of PA tomorrow

and apparently DOJ is investigating.

Stay tuned!

[JRLeft]

18. It may be too late.

[B Calm]

19. Suppressing the vote is just one way republicans

steal elections! But when I see stories like the one in Pa, I get sick to my stomach.
