GOP Rep.: Wisconsin Voter ID Law Will Help Republicans In General Election
ByCaitlin MacNealPublishedApril 6, 2016, 7:42 AM EDT
A Republican congressman on Tuesday night acknowledged that the new law requiring a photo ID to vote in Wisconsin could help Republican candidates at the polls in the general election.
"I think Hillary Clinton is about the weakest candidate the Democrats have ever put up. And now we have photo ID, and I think photo ID is going to make a little bit of a difference as well," Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-WI), a supporter of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), told Milwaukee television station TMJ4 when asked how either Cruz or Donald Trump could win in November.
The chair of Wisconsin's Democratic party, Martha Laning, quickly bashed Grothman's comment........

(30,058 posts)why this one, because more republicans has the CHL. There have been some drives to get people to the Driver's License to get the proper ID to vote in Texas, hopefully other states with these laws will do the same. In Texas you have to fill out paper work if the name on the voter's registration does not match the DL, in fact it is noted on the voter registration of the match. We can beat the republicans at their game by helping all we know to have the proper ID. Also one of the questions ask by the clerks is does the person want to have their voter registration name changed to the DL name.

(34,476 posts)As I understand it, WI was open, but required identification. So (a) that suppressed turnout of a demo that goes strongly for HRC, and (b) the so-called "independents" could simply choose a Dem ballot that day. While some I do believe genuinely were, and support sanders because they are concerned about "the economy is rigged", wage stagnation, etc, I think some were Republicans who voted in the Dem primary because they were fine with any of their candidates but wanted to choose the Dem they thought would be weaker in the general.
