Felons voting: Fear-mongering on voter ID
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 3/16/9 During the recent voter identification bill debate, the four senators who killed voter ID in the Senate Elections Committee wailed about the dangers they perceived of the voter ID bill expanding the rights of felons to vote.
