I have an out of state drivers license and a passport as far as photo ID goes. A passport is fine. Technically it's illegal to drive with an out of state driver's license after living here 90 days though.

Thanks everyone. I just wanted to make sure I'm voting legally so I can concentrate on my other crimes.zoux posted:Passport is plenty but we also don't have voter ID in Texas. I'll beat this drum every election because telling people we have voter ID is doing the GOPs work for them, but if you are a registered voter and you show up at a polling place, if you don't have an ID, you can sign an affidavit stating any reason or hardship why not, which the electoral officials cannot challenge, and you will be permitted to cast a full, non-provisional ballot. So they'll ask for ID, and you can show it if you just want to avoid the rigamarole, but not having a photo ID is not going to keep someone from casting a regular ballot. Sorry to perpetuate this piece of misinformation then. I genuinely didn't know and the state sure makes it seem like there are stringent ID requirements. deadking fucked around with this message at 18:51 on Feb 19, 2020 |

You're right the state strongly implies we have extremely stringent ID requirements, that's the point; to make people who might not have a perfect ID think that they might have a hassle voting. It's really hard to get people to vote with no barriers, so it's easy to get people to skip the polls if they're worried about a scene or being turned away. My issue is with the doomer leftist hyperbole having the same effect, and if you're hearing it from both sides, of course you're going to think it's true. We had a huge fight about this in here in '18, which is why it's a thing.

Y'all did see the last page, right? I was really digging Sema too, her positions taken alone are good. I do not see any way that a person who brokebrained from Bernie > Trump on day 1 post 2016 to either stably hold them or effectively press them.

Younger people don’t have the ability to do it because it’s a temporary part time job. Does it even pay?

Young people, in my experience, are looking for jobs that last longer than a month. They aren’t retired folks doing this out of boredom, they’re trying to pay bills.

Might be interesting having a musical following Sam Houston ending with him being ejected from politics for refusing to join the CSA and including that bit where he told James Bowie to fuckin' blow up the Alamo instead of staying there to die like an idiot. I don't actually know if Hamilton goes for accuracy or reinforcing standard American myths, but there's always interesting stories to be mined out of history.

Only half of the Senate seats are up for reelection in a given election year. Also Donna Howard and Celia Israel have declined to run for Watson's seat which makes me think they're pretty hopeful about a House flip. https://twitter.com/scottbraddock/status/1230519391722311680  https://twitter.com/PatrickSvitek/status/1230853677746982913 Sema in shambles, soon to accuse AOC of being a liberal.
