Saboteur tried to seize control over who can vote

The saboteur tried to seize personal control over who is allowed to vote in the US.

It follows the latest magat fashion of using a small federal power for leverage to bully lesser governments and institutions into repression: in this case, into requiring voters to show ID cards. The range of ID cards to be accepted would be so limited that many poor voters would do without them, and be disenfranchised.

Greg Palast estimates that 21 million eligible voters would be barred from voting, if states obey this.

It would also take the US another bit step towards having a national ID card — which is, itself, oppression.
