"There WAS no problem. There IS no problem."

Wrong. There WAS a problem. There is no longer going to be a problem. How else would corrupt Dems get elected year after year?

You know the same Dems who coined the phrase "Vote early, vote often"?

AGAIN--Pay attention ID fans:

There WAS no problem. There IS no problem. The "fix" is expensive and confusing. For some, particularly legal emmigres, many of whom do not drive, obtaining a valid state ID is a huge problem. Plus, to many of them, it's insulting.

Got it?

Democrats need to stop lying to voters!

Istructions given to Poll Inspectors.
Photo Identification

Beginning this year, all voters must provide valid photo identification (ID) to be able to cast their ballot. A photo ID must meet four criteria to be considered valid.

1. It must display the voter’s photo
2. It must display the voter’s name, and the name must conform with voter’s registration record (conform does not mean match identical)
3. It must display an expiration date and either is current or have expired sometime after the date of the last General election (November 2, 2004): or contain an indefinite expiration date such as those found on military IDs.
4. It must be issued by the state of Indiana or the US Government.

To be considered valid, it cannot be issued from another state or be issued from a private institution of any kind and the address on the identification does not have to match the person’s voter’s registration address.

*In most cases, an Indiana driver’s license, Indiana photo ID card, US passport, or Military ID is sufficient. A student ID from an Indiana State school may only be used if it meets all four (4) of the criteria stated above.

If a voter provides valid photo identification, the voter is then allowed to sign the poll book and vote a regular ballot.

PROVISIONAL BALLOTS

A Challenged Voter:
If a voter is unable or declines to present proof of photo identification – the inspector or judge determines the photo ID presented does not meet all of the above criteria – the inspector or judge will challenge the voter (PRO-2/PRE-4 Envelope form). After completing his or her relevant portion of the PRO-2/PRE-4 Envelope form, the voter may sign the poll book.

Voter Claiming an Exemption:
A person who wishes to claim an exemption from the photo identification requirement based on either indigent or religion may do so by signing an affirmation (on the PRO-10 form) in front of the county election board or circuit court clerk-or their designees; this form must be filed not later than noon 10 days after the election.

Voter having No Photo ID – Provisional Ballot
Someone who is challenged and wishes to vote and does not have photo identification must complete the bottom half of the PRO-2/PRE-4 Envelope form and may cast a provisional ballot. This ballot will not be counted unless the voter brings a proof of identification to the office of the Marion County Clerk no later than 10 days after the election.

Just read the state spent 2m to inform voter about the id law. More money and time wasted. Dam, do your job.

Your memory serves you correct. See page four of the link posted above. . .

Under the legal opinion issued by the election commission, they were acceptable, if my memory serves me correct. I can double check.

Actually Mr. Hakim-Shabazz, military IDs cannot be used. They don't have an expiration date. In fact Sen. Delph last night at the JCC debate made it a point of saying he plans to fix this next session. But as of right now, they are not sufficient.

They can be used.

I keep hearing that military IDs can not be used. Here is the truth.
