Slate is Wrong here.
by lawprof69
As usual, the Brain washed idiots over at Slate have no idea what they are talking about. Voting is a fundamental right. If you are indigent, the state must waive any fees required in order to vote. Hence, the "poll tax" argument is a bunch of crap. If an indigent person wants to get an ID, the STATE MUST waive any fee if the ID is required to vote. That's called an AS APPLIED challenge idiots. The law is facially VALID. The court isn't supposed to throw out a law because some tiny concieveable manner of its application is unconstitutional. If the case comes up, it's just a carve out: The state has to waive any fees required to get an ID for the indigent. STATES BEWARE! You must do this, or else the crazies at the Democraticly owned and operated ACLU files an amicus brief! Anyway, that ISSUE wasn't before the court. I love how the media tries to brainwash people into believeing their political propaganda.
