In Pennsylvania the court did not feel that the state id card was easy enough to secure for disabled and infirmed voters. It had nothing to do with race in any of these states. If disabled, and infirmed voters weren't allowed to vote by the voter ID law, Penn. would have swung to Romney. That is what the Speaker of Penn. house had in mind, when he made the Romney comment. That is truly unbelievable.

Thank you for pointing out the typing error. That truly went over my head. I copied that sentence and originally typed "informed (?)" in my response. I am laughing at myself.
