Voter ID

The Carbon County Registrar’s office has a poster on the door telling people they need I.D. to vote.  They don’t.  Now we have court opinion from Judge Bernard McGinley that explains that poll workers can no longer tell voters they need ID.  

Judge McGinley said, “The court cannot ignore the fact that the information conveyed to electors, if relayed at all, in the last two regularly scheduled elections, was inaccurate.”  There were reports that some election officials told voters who lacked ID that they could not vote.

This November will be the fourth election since the ID law was passed that voters will be allowed to vote without ID.  Let’s hope the judge throws out the law.  The law’s only purpose is to reduce the Democratic vote.

Yard sale report:

The informal rules of blogging say that you should only discuss one issue per posting.  Last night I was just too exhausted to post, but I will tell you that our yard sale was a major success.  We took in  $1075 after expenses, and that ensures that the Democratic Information Center will remain open through 2013.  

Carol, Patti, Sandra, and Kyle made the sale a success.  We may do this every year, unless the Koch Brothers come through with a donation.
