According to a new Rasmussen report, 70 percent of Americans believe voter identification<\/a>, such as a driver\u2019s license, should be required in order to vote.<\/p>\n Nonetheless, Attorney General Eric Holder intends to examine new state laws that require photo ID before voting for potential racial bias.<\/p>\n H<\/a>eritage Foundation legal scholar Hans Von Spakovsky explains there is no evidence to support claims of racial bias<\/a>:<\/p>\n Election data in Georgia demonstrate that concern about a negative effect on the Democratic or minority vote is baseless. Turnout there increased more dramatically in 2008 \u2014 the first presidential election held after the state\u2019s photo-ID law went into effect \u2014 than it did in states without photo ID. Georgia had a record turnout in 2008, the largest in its history \u2014 nearly 4 million voters. And Democratic turnout was up an astonishing 6.1 percentage points from the 2004 election, the fourth-largest increase of any state. The black share of the statewide vote increased from 25 percent in 2004 to 30 percent in 2008, according to the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies. According to Census Bureau surveys, 65 percent of the black voting-age population voted in the 2008 election, compared with only 54.4 percent in 2004, an increase of more than ten percentage points.<\/p>\n The data above also seems to indicate how many racists there are. The election mentioned is of course the where Obama was somehow elected.\u00a0 Huge increases in black voters with a partially black man running is plain racism.\u00a0\u00a0 No one will say that because its politically incorrect to call it like you see it.\u00a0 Most liberals like their double standard too. They cry “racism” at virtually anything they don’t like. Thankfully people are catching on the the “liberal that cried racism.” Unfortunately, it will be harder to see when there really IS racism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Push for Voter ID Laws According to a new Rasmussen report, 70 percent of Americans believe voter identification, such as a driver\u2019s license, should be required in order to vote.
