Voter ID law assailed at meeting

Several long-time Republicans dissatisfied with the crop of candidates running for president have developed an unorthodox plan to upend what they consider a flawed GOP nomination process. The other half of Garlington's troubles: Because his missing driver's license is still valid, the DMV won't issue an alternative photo ID to use at the polls. "If they had an election today, I couldn't vote," said Garlington, 59. Garlington was among more than 40 people who appeared at an NAACP town hall meeting Monday where opponents said they would do everything in their power to see that the state's new voter ID law never gets used. Many said it is no more than an attempt to rekindle Jim Crow through a modern-day poll tax. [GREAT BLUBBERING BOO HOOS! What a bunch of nonsense!]
