I wouldn't read too much into it.

States with voter ID laws are typically R leaning states so it's not surprising the R candidate wins them.

would make sense, no?

R states would vote for voter ID laws and Dem states would vote against it

I just don't understand how it can be legal to vote without something to id who you are...I just can't wrap my mind around that.

Well, yeah. That's why the Dems abhor voter ID, it costs them elections.

Nevada was definitely some bullshite - if there's one state that was stolen from Trumpy it was definitely Nevada

A) very strong Dem machine
B) 80% of the Dem vote located in one county
C) homogenous voting group (young hispanics) to leverage and pile up the votes

What do they mean Louisiana is "photo i.d. requested?" I left my DL at home once and could not vote; I had to go home to get identification.

Correct. If your party requires cheating then your party is against voter ID.

Voter ID laws are racist, right. To say that itself is racist. To believe that people cannot obtain ID is so stupid. I am so glad to see the melt on the left.

Maybe, but I think it would be more because some Ds are probably more likely to be too lazy to get the ID in the first place.

But Dems are not too lazy to go out into the streets and protest for a week when they lose?

It's attention seeking; they are reinforced by that. They don't get that attention by voting and getting an ID, as evidenced by the fact only a small percentage of the protesters/rioters who were arrested (the most attention seeking of bunch) actually voted.

The issue with voter ID is it has to be free, which means tax payers have to buy everyone an ID.

If it isn't free, you are making it more difficult to vote for poor people, which is shitty. There should be as few deterrents to voting as possible. I also believe election day should be a national holiday. I would gladly give up Labor day or MLK day in exchange for election day.

When I turned 18, I went to the polls the following month to vote in local elections (2009). I was told I couldn't because I didn't register properly. Being told you can't vote is a pretty shitty feeling.

My cousin wanted to vote for Trump in Houston. He was turned away because he didn't have proper ID on him at the time.

Why are we making it harder for people to vote? Voting should be easy. Nothing about voting should discourage people from doing it.

I can't wrap my mind around sanctuary cities and how states can break federal laws with no penalty.

Poor people have cell phones and TV. Aren't they more expensive than an ID?

I believe there should be as many deterrents as possible. There are too many illiterate fricktards voting.

This would indicate that you're too stupid to vote. But please don't take any offense.

Have the proper ID. It is not that difficult. Ignorance is never an excuse (on either side).
