If the "gop" was everything they pretended to be, they would want everyone to vote because they would win organically. Since they suck, and are the worst terrorists on the planet, they do sh1t like this (and oh, so much more that screams, "vicious criminals!")

By rolling over and letting this happen, do you mean not voting MORE against these types of laws for the last two NH house sessions? Like, I would have voted three or more times or....?

Not this close to the election. It takes weeks to come in the mail (and requires transportation to get to the DMV). Please don’t spread misinformation. This is denial of these students right to vote to do this this close to the election.

Yes, I get that. I'm looking for other ways they can get a proper ID and then vote. The Drivers' License/ID was the first thing that came to mind. You can get a paper ID ON THE SPOT at the DMV and that will work. It's 6 miles from the Uni to the closest DMV. Same day appts are possible.

It’s interesting that the government knows when you turn 18 and have to register for a potential draft, but then deny that you are a legal citizen when it comes to voting…

It's a lame self own that this is being celebrated by the right as breaking news. Yes, obviously an ID badge to any institution or business is not a right to vote. Those students still have their state issued/federal ID that they can register to vote with with.

Every time NYC elects someone awful, I have to remind people that there are 5 boroughs and Staten island is one of them. Please also remember that at least half of Queens is quite awful, and you-know-who was born there. Some of my beat friends live in Queens, the good part.

What did the NHSC have to say about this? If they allowed it and the USSC overruled, then this is another attack on Federalism by this illegitimate court. So much for their vaunted state's rights argument.

And 10 days or so before the elections. Suspicious. How do students get a sufficient id in this short time to be able to vote against those that are attempting to restrict their ability to vote?

And the corrupt Supreme Court decision at the 11th hour gives students almost no time to get alternative ID if they don't already have it. Corruption in plain sight. This really is the most despicable Administration and Supreme Court in history #midterms

It’s also very telling some idiot college students thought a student ID would be enough. I rarely agree with the Supreme Court…(and believe some of them should have already been arrested). But they got this one right. So, it was probably an accident.😊

Scott Walker's very first move in Wisconsin was to make it illegal for University of Wisconsin students to used their state issued photo IDs at Polling Places. They have been doing this for Decades!

It’s more telling that the majority decided that allowing student IDs was a good place to apply the Purcell rule about changing voting rules too close to an election.

Sad but true. A Supreme Court ruling isn’t last because they’re always right, it’s right because they’re always last.

They should go to the booth and when rejected say “that’s a pity, I was going to vote Republican”. They’ll be allowed to vote - then vote Democrat.

People, calm down. Student id's are not valid id's. That's not new. This isn't voter suppression in any way, shape, or form. Just young, lazy adults. They can't even register to vote with student id's, why would we think they could actually vote with one? Cmon, be smarter.

Weeeel, student id's aren't valid for identification or ff campus. Can't use them for anything. Kids just show up and get their picture taken. Why don't these young adults have state issued id's???? Just lazy, I guess. I have no problem with this at all. It's not voter suppression in any way.

The Alaskan Supreme Court already threw Dan Sullivan’s lawsuit out, without merit. States run elections. Trump and “his”DOJ are trying to get this to the Supreme Court. Alaska has rank choice voting, another act that pisses Trump off. I have friends and family in Alaska, they know the difference.

Which part of the constitution supports that decision? That's right, the magat scotus scum don't bass decisions on the constitution. Rather what helps Gross Old Pedophiles.

Fucking disgusting. My son goes to SNHU and we live in NH and a lot of his friends are scrambling now. This regime has to be stopped. We have to vote these boot licking pedophile protecting republicans out of office.

Unfortunate, but: “While the court’s ruling blocks the use of school IDs in New Hampshire’s November general election, local election officials say it is rare that students arrive to register or request a ballot with only a student identification, so the overall impact may be minor.” nhpr . org

Has been for a very long time too. They are not a political party so much as a conspiracy to power, representing a wealthy minority and its interests.

In the UK, the right wing Tories introduced voter ID a few years ago, as in the US to make it harder for groups who don't typically vote for them. They excluded student IDs as being valid - but allowed all sorts of older peoples' documents - like travel passes.

That’s weird I mean student IDs are valid, especially if you’re voting on campus they can verify your identity based on that. Why do you even need a fucking ID? They could literally just don’t they have a list with your name on it just give them the address.

Funny how these rules/decisions aren't made 6 months to a year prior to an election, always at the last fucking minute.

How could they make this ruling this close to an election? It is too late for students to obtain a NH ID and too late for them to re-register in their prior state of domicile (they would t even qualify since they are now domiciled in NH).

Those students who don't have licenses come from crime-ridden liberal cities. They don't want THOSE people to vote in NH

I assume the schools they attend ask for at least some proof that you are who you say you are when you enroll. Can I go get a student ID at any college based on me say so?

It’s because NBC is a shit hole corporation who doesn’t give a fuck about facts or reality and is doing what their overlord masters the billionaires tell them. Eat the rich and eat all the billionaires first.

** I'm not defending the war against democracy.** But college/university ID's are not accepted outside their issuing campuses as ID nearly anything. They don't show DOB, or physical descriptors like height/weight, lack security features and they are issued all students regardless of nationality.

College students vote heavily Democrat. They were floating the idea of raising the voting age to 25 to completely skip that age group. Looks like they went after IDs instead. Colleges better fucking riot.

You know, many students attend college out of state and have out of state driver's licenses so they should not need a local license. Do the out of state licenses work as an id perhaps in conjunction with the college ID? And honestly it's inexcusable that the SC is making this decision now.

You have to take a drivers test. Which usually means you have to have a reason to take a drivers test. Like…driving. Things that also take time and money and transportation to get? A passport. A non- DL state ID. Etc. It is such a privileged perspective to say that these are easy to obtain.

At least they allowed plenty of time for people to take it into account. I really hope people realised this would be the sort of games they'll get up to.-- Which is nothing compared to what's going to happen if they look like being held to account. They have an armed force wiling to shoot babies!

Pay attention people . They don’t want you to vote. Why ? Because when you don’t vote the gop wins. MA , last day to register to vote . Early voting is happening . Over 600,000 Voters have turned out . Let’s make it a million plus. Stand up Show up Do your part Vote! 

To be fair, it's not a matter of perception: the GOP are the ones who filed the lawsuit, so it is literally a win for them. The telling part is that they did so in the first place.

Wen the Supreme court is actively engaged in voter suppression for the benefit of 1 party, they are to be treated as the traitors they with only the death sentence on offer as punishment for their crimes. No mercy, no forgiveness. Absolute justice so it never ever happens again.
