"Photo ID helped a bit on that"

You probably have wondered whether Republican legislators really think that voter fraud is a big problem, and they must impose ID requirements to prevent it.  

Here is what Republican Party chair Rob Gleason said in an interview last week on a Pennsylvania Cable News Network.  Gleason said that the voter ID law helped to narrow Obama’s victory over Romney by five percent.

Gleason, quoted in the July 21 issue of the Morning Call, added,  “We probably had a better election.  I think photo ID helped a bit on that.”

This is a law that has nothing to do with fraud.  It has everything to do with disenfranchising Democrats.  Mr. Gleason understands that.  What is amazing is that he would publicly admit it.
