Walker announces Vote reform package

Milwaukee County Executive and Candidate for Governor Scott Walker has just announced his platform to reform the voting process. He is calling it get REAL.

  • Require photo ID to vote and require training for election officials
  • End same day voter registration
  • Absentee voters must have a reason to vote absentee
  • Legitimate use of voter registration drives. (eliminate pay per signature)

Any good political idea needs a spiffy acronym.

My question is this, why should we have to wait for all these common sense reforms that poll after poll tell us the people want? Oh yeah. Jim "Noid" Doyle does not give two hoots for what the people want. Keep it up Noid. Keep taking common sense popular legislation and applying your veto pen. I would suggest however you take a page out of the Ament book and up your pension before you are removed from office.

I hear Adleman travel has a nifty frequent flyer program, you should have plenty of time to travel.
