North Carolina State Trial Court Invalidates Law Requiring Certain Kinds of Photo ID for Voting

On September 17, a three-judge panel of a North Carolina Superior Court in Raleigh invalidated the state’s photo ID law for voters. Holmes v Moore, 18 CVS 15292. Here is the opinion. The vote was 2-1. The basis was that the law has a racially discriminatory effect. The law would have survived if it had included more forms of photo ID.

North Carolina State Trial Court Invalidates Law Requiring Certain Kinds of Photo ID for Voting — 36 Comments

  1. My opinion, the only people who are against voter identification are the ones who want unfair elections including fraud. ID = citizenship.

  2. I agree. If there are people without ID, then help them get ID if you want to make sure they vote.

    Here in Oklahoma if you live somewhere without street names or numbered dwellings you can give a physical description of where you live instead of an address.

    Something like “3 miles north of towm on Highway 81 then 1 mile west on the dirt road” is accepted by the Oklahoma Election Board.

  3. If their are people with no id, they should be deported , thrown in prison for life and put on a chain gang, or executed.

    You do not belong on the streets , roads and businesses of this, the greatest Nation in the world and in all of history, without proper state issued identification which can be properly checked by one of our brave Law Enforcement Officers at any time.

    If you are out and about without positive identification, any officer or anyone else should assume you are an illegal alien invader or dangerous escaped convict, and treat you accordingly.

  4. Florida Man, I agree and go one step better. If you cross that southern border illegally into USA. Shoot them. No if and or buts. I don’t care what sex, race, age, religion. Amnesty? (there are procedures). If I got to follow the laws and regulations being a citizen, so do they.

  5. Amen! I would personally have no problem at all mowing illegal invaders down like the vermin and varmints they are all day every day. I’m not against leaving their carcasses strung up to rot as a warning to the others, either!

  6. Most ID stuff does N-O-T show nation-State ALLEGIANCE.

    Dubious records of natural born citizens since 1775-1776-1789 States / 1789+ USA.

    Bit better records for naturalized citizens — 1775-1776-1789 States / 1789+ USA.

    Possible massive DNA tests ???– who’s your olde dadas ???

  7. Libertarian Party National Committee (LNC) = systemic racism, communist-style elections, double standards, censorship and gerrymandering (LP of Los Angeles County Districts 62, 63, 64, 65).

  8. ID is easy to get, regardless of what racist retard commie Stock says. He wants fraud.

  9. “Most ID stuff does N-O-T show nation-State ALLEGIANCE”

    Which is why I have recommended passport cards for voter ID. They verify both citizenship and age.

  10. And every passport card has a unique ID that can be checked nation-wide to determine if anyone has voted more than once.

  11. If anyone claims that some people don’t live in places that have addresses or don’t have ID for any number reason then they should help those people get an ID as part of their Voter Registration activities. I absolutely agree that if you don’t have ID then you should not vote.

  12. Stock is lying. Communists like him do not believe in voter ID that’s why his party is trying to get rid of it.

  13. A passport card (NOT a full passport) costs $30. IMO, the federal government ought to give them free to anyone who requests them for voting IDs.

  14. Any law enforcement officer is fully justified in using deadly force against any miscreant who does not immediately present valid, current STATE ISSUED ID immediately upon being ordered to do so.

    Voting should be held to a much higher standard. Poll taxes, literacy tests, property ownership requirements, and grandfather clauses, are a good start. So is once again limiting the franchise to White Christian Men over the age of 21. 21 = 7+7+7. 18 = 6+6+6.

    I like the idea posed above that anyone who’s ancestors were not ALL eligible to vote in 1776 should not be eligible to vote in our Homeland NOW. There should also be a military service requirement as well. Yes, that means a lot fewer people would vote. But that’s a good thing.

    Reducing the number of people allowed to vote is a good start. Better yet would be a system of theocratic Biblical patriarchy , martial law, absolute monarchy, sharecropping, and National Capitalism, where the corrupt idiocy of voting is done away with altogether.

  15. NEVER any shortage of 50 IQ MORONS who love police State regimes – commie/fascist versions.

    Voting = making choices — hated by such MORONS

    — who love tyrants [until they get purged – like olde 1917 commie bolsheviks by Stalin in 1930s].

  16. Read Democracy: The God That Failed by Hans Hoppe. Voting is just communist mob rule. Two wolves and a sheep voting on lunch.

  17. How many failed monarch/oligarch regimes —

    such as those starting WW I and WW II ???

    KILLER nutcases- Kaiser Bill / Franz Joseph 1914, Mussolini 1935 {Absland], Hitler 1939, Hirohito 1931 Manchuria / 1937 China / 1941 USA, etc.].

  18. 100% of democracy are failed. Unless your goal is communist new age Satanic rule . Read the book, imbecile.

  19. MANY/MOST SO-CALLED SMALL D DEMOCRACIES ARE DE FACTO MONARCHIES/OLIGARCHIES –

    USA
    UK
    CANADA
    FRANCE
    ETC.
    DUE TO MINORITY RULE GERRYMANDERS, FATAL SEPARATION OF POWERS VIOLATIONS, ETC.

  20. Again, 100% of democracies are failed , unless your goal is communist mob rule and two wolves and a sheep voting on dinner. If you can’t understand something that simple, and refuse to read or learn, that’s on you.

  21. Unfortunately yes, there are plenty of you, and not enough of us old age wisdom of the ages folks. National Capitalism is much better than national socialism or international capitalism, which are equally bad. Worst of all is international globalist communism.

  22. ANY State NOT requiring Voters to be USA citizens ???

    RED commie CA exception ???
    —–
    1775-1789 State Natural Born / Naturalized Citizens >>> 1776-1789 USA Citizens

    1789-2021 USA Natural Born / Naturalized Citizens

    NBC records bad/lost in many States ???

    Bit better for naturalized folks ???

    4-1 Full Faith and Credit for other State records — for folks moving to other States.

    Who were your olde dadas – 1776 onward [19 Apr 1775 in Mass – Day ONE of Am Rev WAR]

  23. For once , you are correct. Anyone not descended entirely from natural born US citizens at the time of the American Revolution should be stripped of voting and citizenship rights, and quite likely deported.

  24. Some LEGAL foreign residents in the USA —

    Brits from 1775-1784 Am Rev War
    French from old 1803 LA Purchase
    Spanish from 1819 FL Purchase
    Spanish from 1846 Mex/Am War
    etc.
    Special registration lists of them with USA Marshals — in case of WAR with foreign regime involved.
