In the latest GOP effort to restrict ballot access in New Hampshire, Gov. Kelly Ayotte (R) signed a bill eliminating student IDs as an acceptable form of voter ID into law. The change, which will take effect in June if not blocked by a court, could affect thousands of student voters in the state.

Deeply uncool to disenfranchise student voters who do not drive or have a passport. Many of whom cannot afford those documents. And all of whom society should want to develop into civic-minded citizens.

Perplexed by how GOP governors support that monster in the White House despite his nuclear attack threats against Iran and his abuse of ordinary Americans! No matter that the people detest him and want him removed, the GOP will force him down the people's throats by taking away their votes.

That’s the idea, and why it disenfranchises them. They know they vote overwhelmingly Dem, so what better way to keep them from voting. You’re right…it is truly horrifying. I hate cheaters! 😡
