Ohio Passes Nation's Most Restrictive Voter ID Law

Here we go again. Ohio, the site of massive and largely under-reported voting manipulation and fraud in the 2004 general election, is now passing restrictive measures designed to reduce turnouts in the future. It's a widely held concept that lower turnouts benefit the GOP, and that's why reductions of voting machines in democratic districts was so effective and disturbing in 2004. The criminal manipulations arguably were the difference in the state of Ohio going to Bush and allowing him to win the election. 22 other states are now developing similar voter restrictive statutes in preparation for the 2012 election.
