Yahoo! News – Ariz. Requires Citizenship Proof to Vote
PHOENIX – Arizona has become the first state to require proof of citizenship when registering to vote, a measure that supporters say is intended to prevent voter fraud.The law went into effect Tuesday after being approved by voters in November. It requires that people provide proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate, when registering to vote and show specified forms of identification when casting a ballot at a polling place.
A civil-rights group and Democratic legislators recently had urged the Department of Justice (news – web sites) to reject the law. They argued the changes will erect barriers that will hinder minorities’ participation in elections and hamper grassroots voter registration drives.
You mean you actually have to prove you are a citizen to place a vote for the leader of the country you’re in?
Holy shit, that’s horrible!
And I love how they always add that it’s a hinderance to minorities. What, do blacks and hispanics not have ID or something?
I swear to God, the stupidity that flows forth from the mouth of the left on this country is just unreal sometimes. Make note minorities, as you mindlessly vote 75% Democratic; they think you’re too stupid to produce ID.
