Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear on Friday vetoed a bill pushed by Republican lawmakers to require Kentucky residents to show a government-issued photo ID in order to vote.

In his veto message, the governor said the measure would create an obstacle to voting, resulting in fewer people casting ballots and “undermining our democracy.”

Beshear said the bill seeks to “resolve a problem that does not exist" because voter impersonation isn’t a problem in Kentucky.

The measure passed the Senate and House by wide margins. The legislature is scheduled to reconvene April 13. Secretary of State Michael Adams urged lawmakers to override the veto.

Yep, an obstacle to voting twice or for somebody else.

They can only win if they cheat.

At this point fewer and fewer people are buying the crap they're selling.
Sad.

Yep a democrat. They're already preparing to steal the Presidential election from Donald Trump. Those gobernatorial races were very important for this very reason.

He also said you can't have elective surgery but you can have an abortion.

This video on the subject pretty much sums up the racist white liberals view on the voter ID issue:

I probably should know this since I’ve been voting by mail for 20 years since I’m active duty, but how do they validate the current vote by mail.

I haven’t shown my ID in years and I’m not sure if I ever have.

People shouldn't have to show ID at the liquor store or bars because underage drinking isn't a problem.

So this veto is purely symbolic?

I’m still waiting to find one person that doesn’t already have an ID or is too poor to get one

As bad as Bevin was, all he had to do was be less of an a-hole, and he wins.

What’s funny is Beshear thinks his win was a major victory. He had a 15 point lead last summer and won by 5K votes. All other Republicans won every race. He’s a one legged man in a arse kicking contest.

We just suck when it comes to Republican Governor’s. Not one has ever won re-election. As long as he leaves gun rights alone, which his daddy and most other Democrats here do, I’ll be fine. We’ll wait til 2023 to see which dumbfrick we put up against him.

Obstacle indeed.
It's hard to carry a tombstone all the way to the polling place.
