Squelching "Voter Fraud"
http://www.tribstar.com/opinion/local_story_308234852.html?keyword=secondarystory">Terre Haute Tribune-Star

The pols sell these restrictions to an uniformed public as minor, “common-sense” inconveniences that proud Americans should be happy to experience. After all, who would be discouraged from voting because a government-issued photo ID is mandatory?

The answer: millions of folks, who’ve done nothing to deserve disfranchisement but to be among the old, poor, minority, disabled or student pool of potential voters.

Indiana has led the way in the reform rush. Thanks to the majority in the General Assembly, which voted for our new photo ID law, Hoosiers stand alone this Election Day with the most cumbersome and prohibitive set of voting requirements in the nation.


Yeah, fuck you Mitch.
