The bastards are making damn sure that as few people vote as possible - not only will we need ID, but it will have to be current. This will rule out a lot of seniors who can't get anywhere to get a new ID, no matter if it's "free" ("free" not including transportation to the issuing office)

The voter ID bill cleared a House committee earlier this month, after more than two hours of contentious debate."
