I just saw the 'show your ID' ad for the umpteenth time in Pennsylvania.

But now it says you will be asked, but it's 'optional.' The commercial still implies that you are less than patriotic if you resist.

When they ask for my ID, I will ask where that requirement is in The Constitution. They will hand my my ballot and I will vote for President Barack Obama, and every Democrat down ticket.

Then I will assume my position as poll monitor for the party.

In two years I will work my ass off to remove the Republican party from any control in Pennsylvania.

I got enough of this shit in Georgia.

Screw that. You could remind them they'll need it next time without asking for it now. gkhouston Oct 2012 #3

Someone asked me just yesterday if they would have to show ID. I told them 'no'. We are supposed to ask for it though so that people know they will have to get it for the next election. I have a feeling Corbett and pals won't push so hard after this election and hopefully it will never be enforced.

Sounds like a tactic to intimidate voters and slow the process, while people rummage through their wallets and purses.

And actually - the whole state legislature (and odd #ed State Senate seats) are up right now. We could get some control over the State Assembly if people vote straight ticket now (assuming there are Dems running in the needed districts).

And in 2014, Crockofshit MUST go and hopefully his Centre County/Penn State constituents will help do the deed because they are livid.
