As usual the Radical Right is looking for answers to problems that do not exist. But hey it no doubts fits the new Rights Mantra (Afraid, Angry, & Hateful).
The funny thing is over many many years of voter fraud investigations it has been the Right overwhelmingly involved in fraud.
Maybe we could do a DNA test that might fight the Rights Purity Tests!!
If we do get new laws for ID (Which I support) it will affect the Right 20 times more than it will affect the left.

Well played strawmen arguments.
It obviously exists if the fourteen polling stations around my neighborhood alone each got 110% of the population voting. Especially troublesome is when only right around 50% of the people actually go out and vote in any given election!
That said, if it's such a good thing, why is the Left so vehemently against it? You've got to have picture ID to rent a damn movie or get the government benefits the poor, who are talked about when this issue comes up, receive.
In Minnesota you only need someone to "Vouch" for you. I could *LITERALLY* vouch for all of AFT and you'd be, magically, Minnesota voters. You don't even need to give your real name! Just give a name, any name, and I can vouch for you. For me to vouch for you, I only need to have voted in the last election.
The reason it's coming up is because there is fraud going on and it's absurdly easy to perpetuate. Require a picture ID and the problem goes away, and the Right will have nothing to bitch about when they lose elections. That alone should be good for the Left, no?
Strangely enough, when I looked up "Voter Fraud" I found the New Black Panthers, Al Franken, and Washington state. I can't figure out why.....
