Voter ID Raises Some Eyebrows

March 12th, 2009 - 11:34 am by Jenny Hoff · 1 Comment

Apparently, the Voter ID bill passed out of the Senate Committee as a Whole on Wednesday is stirring up some concerns on both sides of the aisle in the House. I talked to a Republican yesterday who supports the measure, but doesn’t like the way the Senate changed the rules to get it passed. I also heard Straus saying people had some concerns about the bill, though he didn’t expand on it much. So, if you think it was ugly in the Senate..wait til it gets the House.

    Voter ID is a good thing. It keeps the dead from voting. Stops people from showing at the polling places more than once. Most important, it will being us closer to a real election that represents the voice of the people.
