I was depressed to be paging through The Daily Collegian’s Tuesday edition to find a beautiful, full-color, full page advertisement informing your readers about Pennsylvania’s new, mostly overturned in the courts, voter ID law.
In the text of the advertisement, it explained the schizophrenic policy now in place: “You may be asked to show your ID this year, but you are not required to have one.”
How much does an ad like that cost? Further, how much of our taxpayer dollars have been spent by officials on such advertisements statewide? Let’s call advertisements like that just what they are: voter supression. How disgusting to hear Republicans crabbing about the non-existent problem of voter fraud when that’s precisely what I think their game this election season.
