Identifying A Candidate Who Doesn’t Want To Identify Voters
By Kleinheider Posted on May 20, 2008 at 6:49 amMary Mancini isn’t a big fan of would-be first woman president Hillary Clinton this year but come 2016 she does have a gender specific suggestion for the nation’s high office:
Well you can sign me up for Governor Sebelius’s 2016 campaign (or Senator Obama’s Vice President?) because today this friend of democracy vetoed a bill that would have required Kansans to show photo identification to vote. Said Sebelius, “HB 2019 seeks to solve a problem of voter fraud which does not exist in our state due to the tireless efforts of our local elected officials” and “will only work to disenfranchise many of the electorate and serve as a barrier to their participation in the democratic process.”
