Voter ID - Day in Court PA

A hearing in the Voter ID cae in Pennsylvania began today.  The arguments against were the usual - too expensive, does not prevent voter fraud, suppresses minority vote. We've all hear them before.

While the case continued in PA state court, the elderly African- American woman at the heart of the case was able to get a free ID with little or no trouble at all.  Since the current hearing is at the appelate level, the woman's testimony is now moot.  She found it was easy to get the ID.  Too bad democrats and the DOJ do not understand that.

In another twist in the case, a Delaware County election official told the Philadelphia Inquirer that no matter how the case is resolved, he will not require voters to show ID in November.  Christopher L. Broach said that he is not willing to enforce a law that violates civil rights.  Perhaps, Broach should be removed from office before the election.

No matter what the PA court or Broach say, the US Supreme Court found Voter ID Laws constitutional in 2008.  The PA law closely follows the wording of the Indiana law.
