Republicans To Citizens: We Will Stop You From Voting
Republican legislators press forward with their blatantly partisan and phony "Stop The Voting" bill.
The premise is equivalent to a baseball team temporarily in first place completely re-writing the rules and banning all sorts of players because a few irrelevant pitchers on their rival team had, without the approval by anyone in team management, sneaked some Vaseline on the ball, and got caught. Without influencing the outcome of a single game.

The video of the hearing on wiseye.com is long but a must-see. In it we learn that man-brick Rep. Don Pridemore has been regularly volunteering as a poll watcher in Rep. Fred Kessler's district. Nothing telling about that, no siree.
Pridemore also explains how "mobile DMV offices" will magically appear wherever someone is in need of an ID. In response to questions about student voting, he replies that he doesn't see why they'd be interested in local elections. He says his own student son, "who lives almost permanently in Tennessee," votes in Wisconsin elections - including local offices - by absentee ballot.
If Republican politicians want increased partisan advantage in elections, they should do so by better serving those citizens that currently do not favor them, rather than by using their legislative power to discourage and suppress the participation of those citizens in elections.
The evidence regarding the lack of need for the government-issued-Photo-ID-with-current-address-to-be-able-to-Vote bill is so clear and unambiguous, that legislators and Party and public officials who are pushing the bill should be indicted for engaging in a criminal conspiracy to violate the voting rights of qualified citizens by seeking to suppress the votes of certain demographic groups in order to thereby gain partisan political advantage.

Today's GOP increasingly takes on the odor of fascism.
Who doesn't have a photo ID these days? Don't they rent DVDs?
