Pennsylvania Secretary of the Commonwealth Carole Aichele, testifying Tuesday during a state trial on the states controversial voter ID law, said she wasnt sure about the details of the law, but stood by her unsupported claim that 99 percent of voters had valid identification.
I dont know what the law says, Aichele said under questioning, according to CBS.
Aichele also couldnt provide any evidence that 99 percent of voters already have a valid form of ID, as the state has claimed. CBS reported that when lawyers cited testimony from a Department of State official calling the number likely inaccurate, Aichele responded I disagree.

We have had GOP trash running the show for the last 35 years at least.
I think I am gonna start calling her office & push for the death penalty for elected officials who engage in election fraud. After all this would help poor folk think they are not getting screwed, again & again & again^99.

(24,450 posts)really makes me wonder how many of our elected officials don't know what is in the bills they vote for, sign, enforce, etc. It's actually kind of scary IMHO that even the GOVERNOR WHO SIGNED THE BILL CAN'T SAY WHAT ALL IS IN THIS!!!
