Eric Holder is suing North Carolina in an effort to bully them into dropping their voter ID law. Don’t believe the hype. This is what the lawsuit is really about. The voter margins in North Carolina are small and voter fraud can easily swing an election into the democratic column, just as it did in the 2008 election of Al Franken in Minnesota.
Holder and the democrats claim that voter ID laws are unfair because the poor do not have ID. But is that true? The poor get government aid in the form of food stamps, HUD, HEAP, welfare and any other number of federal programs. What do all these government programs have in common? You must have a valid picture ID to collect them. They can use the same ID they use for those programs to vote.
