But why? Why is it harder, or more burdensome, for minorities to get a photo id? Is there a faster, "whites only" line at the Dept Of Motor Vehicles that nobody told me about?

My ID is my drivers license and passport. If i didn't drive, I don't know what I would use. Many minorities live in cities and don't drive so I would suspect that has something to do with it. Why the constant big push for photo ids if there is no fraud?

"The reason the polls in BPort were allowed to stay open late is bc they ran out of ballots"

Ah. If the polls ran out of ballots, let's say, and 50 people were in line, and they got 50 more ballots for those people, I would have no issue with that. That's not what happened. What happened was, while they were waiting for more ballots, the political operatives in Bridgeport sounded the alarm that the race was going to be close, and they rounded up more voters to go get in line to vote late. Lots of people were able to vote who were not in line when the polls closed. A topic for another day, however...Do you have a link to that b/c I don't remember there being claims people were allowed to get in line after polling hours

What is the harm in extending the voting hours?
