Research: No causality between Voter ID laws and lower voter participation

This is a direct rebuke of an earlier study being claimed by progressives to justify judicial rulings striking down Voter ID laws. This study analyzes the very same data and just says that the earlier findings are likely the result of outright bias and not necessarily any clear data correlation. With as many of these laws being struck down by judges claiming adverse effect yet despite any lack of data to this effect, this is one more reason Congress should start Impeaching judges.

    There is no rational reason for voter ID laws to keep anyone of any race, color, gender, or creed from voting.
    If any voters are irrational enough to stay away, that is a good thing. I want irrational voters to stay home.

    The left's interest in preventing voter ID and registration laws pertains directly to its own means of getting votes: They demagogue the ignorant and persuade them to be carried off to the polls to vote as they are told. They don't want any semblance of intellectual or legal responsibility getting in the way, including the necessity to make two trips to register and vote.

    I could see how any requirement will cause some people will not get to vote. One time I went to vote early before a business trip. My DL had just expired. A new one was coming in the mail. Fortunately I had another form of valid ID with me. But if I hadn't, it's the same thing as if I had gone to get money out of the bank, rent a car, or do some other important transaction. I think it's okay if the law leads to less voting.
