They say they've counted more than 31,000 potentially legal voters in Arizona who easily could have registered before Proposition 200 but were blocked initially by the law in the 20 months after it passed in 2004. They say about 20 percent of those thwarted were Latino.>>>

That's absurd. The elderly are among the "sharpest" when it comes to voting. I don't know one elderly person that is intent on voting that doesn't make sure they can and do get to the polls. Vunerable minorities? Pftttttttttttttttt, there is no such thing. The "latinos" that were kept from voting? Are you speaking of the illegals? Good, latino or other illegals, they should be blocked. I can guarantee you one thing, if the illegals were voting republican you'd sure be on board for stopping them.

Your knee-jerk ASSertion that I would "be on board for stopping them" is simply another  absurdity you are throwing into the mix that has no connection with reality.  I am not in favor of stopping any legitimately qualified voter from voting. I am in favor of removing any unnecessary barriers to voting by any legitimately qualified citizen. 

That is her point wackadoodle, they are not entitled to vote if they are illegal or a convicted felon.  It is absurb to ask people to provide identification to cash a check, pick up a check, or register to get a check, yet you do not ask for any identification when they plan to vote, one of the most sacred rites we are given in this country. I could understand if the polling judges were selectively picking people out and not allowing them to register or to vote, but that is not what was happening.  they were only being asked to identify themselves, something that anyone in their right frame of mind should be able to do.

This is just another step to allow more voter fraud and run the polls numbers up for Dems who operate in areas where their buddies control the voting boxes.  I don't know why anyone should be surprised by this however.  One more step to digging deeper into our pocketbooks and giving a susbsidy to someone....nothing to see here....move along.

This was settled on a technical point, that the state can't require more information than on the FEC approved form.  Scalia pointed out that Arizona should immediately apply to the FEC to include the requested information.  If, the FEC doesn't, the Arizona has a case he would rule in favor of. 

 

Beware, there are numerous feral doodles lucking about with large wooden whackers labeled "Contendah."

Arizona AG office should be preparing a request to the FEC for form changes, as we post.  Either, the FEC agrees, or Arizona can go back to SCOTUS. 

 

To receive your drivers license in Alabama, you must submit a social security card, or other proof of SSN.  Huntsville office didn't like my 50 plus year old typed card, but accepted my DD214 military discharge form.  

I don't know about you but when I first went to get my driver's license I had to present a brith certificate. Just this past month I was forced by the state to prove my citizenship or risk the chance of losing my medical license.  it took of all of five minutes to retrieve a copy of birth certificate, passport, and driver's license and fax them to the state office. This was AFTER I had already provided these documents in the application process.

If you set it up correctly there is no way that we could not identify people who are here illegally, and there is no reason why someone should be able to prove they are a legal citizen to exercise their right to vote.It would level the playing field on both sides and take away all of this argument about illegal voter fraud.

jtd,

Unless you were caught crossing the border, or committed a crime, you won't be in a holding tank. 

Followed up on this, about 5 percent of voters use the federal motor voter's form. The rest use a state form, which the state still can require proof of citizenship to register the voter.  The state AG has requested change to the FEC for the motor voter's form to provide for proof of citizenship.  If denied, they will return to federal court.
