Mr Khan said: It's worth noting that i'm against how the laws are being implemented, not against the idea of voter ID altogether. Similar to how one could say i'm opposed to Obamacare but not to universal health care. I see these laws as generally maliciously intended, because some Republicans have gone on record talking about how this is good for them from an electoral perspective. |
Except that's not what you've said in this thread... which is why it's hard to take you seriously when you make these arguements.
You have constantly been argueing the law is racist in of and by itself.

The law is, not what the law is trying to implement. Especially the one in Pennsylvania which is imposing too-strict of standards
|
Except the standards aren't too strict. They're the same standards you need to open a bank account... or cash a check.
It should be easier to comit voter fraud then check fraud?
Christ it's the standards set out by Jimmy Carter.
Well all know what a rightwing repubican racist hatemonger Jimmy Carter is.
I mean, how does say.. a phone bill stop an illegal alien from voting? They get bills.
As of now, by federal law, to register to vote, all you have to do is say you are a US Citizen.
Nobody checks, nobody is allowed to check... heck that can't even check if the name you gave is real. It's pretty easy to get a bill sent to your house with a fake name.
Therefore a form of identification that is only given to citizens is the only way to ensure fraud prevention.

Standards in Pennsylvania demand a photo ID with an expiration date, which disqualifies certain forms of state and federal ID
|
If you look at the commission chaired by Jimmy Carter that involved voter fraud, one of the biggest kinds of voter fraud was double voting.
Where you voted where you used to live, and now where you do live.
Requring expiration dates on ID's is the best way to prevent this outside of a National voter ID card... since to renew it, you may have to reprove residency if it's not a drivers lisecnse. Which generally your new state forces you to get rid of your old states Driver's liscense.
Nowhere good as one national voter ID law requiring a federal voter ID... but you won't get Democrats behind that. Or Libretarians for that matter. who are afraid that a government national ID is going to let big government track you... when big government can already fucking track you because you need a government issued photo id to properly function in society anwyay.
