1. Does voter ID stop voter fraud, no, just ask the candidate in Fort Bend County, Texas

how it works. He said he owned a house in Pennsylvania and Texas and claimed it entitled him to vote in both states. BTW, True the Voter organizer is also in Fort Bend County, convenient, huh.

9. The 1% hate the ...

concept of 1 voter, 1 vote.
They feel that they should be allowed to vote everywhere they have an interest,
just like the candidate you mentioned from Fort Bend County Texas.

So not only does the 1% believe that more money means more free speech,
but that more money means more democracy (for them)!

12. Agreed

2. Stock up on Kleenex, Tom

This is just the first defeat headed your way. Hope you didn't get too comfortable in that mansion in Harrisburg.

3. Yes, indeedie.

Can't wait until November to vote Corbett out of office. The Democrats have 4 very strong candidates to choose from in the primary next month...anyone of them would beat Corbett.

4. It'll go to the PA Supreme Court next.

For what it's worth, my rep in the PA Senate, Daylin Leach, says that it's likely that the ruling will hold.

While we're discussing PA and Corbett, check out my earlier post:

Pennsylvania State Senator Daylin Leach plans sit in at Governor's office for medical marijuana.

8. His commercial

It makes me cry. His mom had to give him up due to poverty.

Leach seems eager to fight Corbett's malarkey. Good.

11. Oh he's very eager.

5. Don't all these legislatures passing ID laws imply a conspiracy?

Isn't it a conspiracy to suppress voting?

7. *snort*

Silly citizen, laws are only for little people. They do not apply to politicians, government, rich people, or corporations.

6. YAY! F*** All The RW Vote Suppressors!

"In a 29-page decision, Judge Bernard L. McGinley said the law requiring Pennsylvania voters to produce photo ID at the polls failed "to provide liberal access to compliant photo ID" and, as a result, voters were disenfranchised."

[Kaleva]

10. But he still is going to replace David Letterman right?

[Spirochete]

13. You're thinking of Colbert

Different guy. This one is the guy from Courtship of Eddies Father.

14. Wisconsin Voter ID Law Rejected By Federal Judge

MILWAUKEE (AP) — A federal judge in Milwaukee struck down Wisconsin's voter identification law Tuesday, declaring that a requirement that voters show a state-issued photo ID at the polls imposes an unfair burden on poor and minority voters.
