VOTERS: Say it ain't so, Ben

| October 12, 2012 9:24 PM

Open letter to Ben Ysursa, Secretary of State, State of Idaho: Bring your ID and VOTE! Indeed!

Shame on you for trying to trick Idaho voters into thinking we must show ID to vote in the upcoming election. Shame on you for using your position to attempt to corrupt a document that is supposed to be non-biased, informational and trustworthy. Shame on you for belittling the process that is the cornerstone of America’s greatness; the privilege of voting.

This goes for everyone who worked on the Idaho Voter’s Pamphlet cover, proofread it, approved it, thought it was a good idea, or even thought it was a bad idea and didn’t say anything.

For everyone else, please make sure you cast your vote on Nov. 6. It’s the one day your voice is as loud as the next guy’s.
