Missouri Senate Passes Voter ID Legislation

The Missouri Senate passed SB3 today. The so called "Voter ID" bill requires a Missouri or Federal Government Photo Identification to vote. The Legislation is contingent upon a Missouri Constitutional amendment being passed, so this is really the first step in a long process. The bill passed by a 26-7 vote. The State Supreme Court struck down a similar law in 2006 - that's why this time around a Constitutional Amendment will be necessary.

Liberal Democrat Senator Jolie Justus tweeted soon after the vote that the Missouri Senate just "voted to disenfranchise at least 230,000 voters" . I can't imagine why anyone would oppose a law like this until I put myself in the shoes of a Democrat. You see, Democrats need the votes of people who can't get, or are too lazy to get photo IDs. Illegals for example, can't get a legitimate state ID without proper paperwork. Dead people, another Democratic voting bloc, also can't provide proper photo IDs. Then another thing occurred to me - who are these 230,000 Missourians who don't have a photo ID? And how on earth do they conduct business on a day to day basis? Can you get a job without ID? Receive Government benefits? Open a Bank account? I'm sorry, but I can't imagine 230,000 Missourians without any photo ID. Are they counting Children? What a bunch of losers.

Incidentally, did you know you can get a fake ID on the Internet? Holy shit, that's cool - a lot of things have changed since I was of the fake ID age, man I'm getting old.
