Voter’s Rights | North Dallas Gazette

Have you received your new voter ID card?

Despite the contentious fight earlier this year to keep Texas from passing and implementing the new “Voter ID Card” laws there is possible confusion for local voters.

It is important to understand the disputed law has not been implemented and ha no impact on the May 29 primary elections in Texas. The U.S. Department of Justice is still currently reviewing the legality of these proposed Voter ID laws. If a voter has remained a resident in the county and not moved since they last registered to vote, the voter is still registered to vote.

Due to the litigation around congressional redistricting & the voter id laws new voter certificates were mailed April 25.

Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson issued a statement, “I strongly believe that the right to vote is one of our most precious rights in America. I have fought to protect those rights from being infringed upon for all people. My office has received a lot of inquires from residents about the status of the new voting laws and their own personal voting status. Dallas County has developed a website and hotline for any citizen to call to get the details on their voter registration status. Go to the following website (www.dalcoelections.org/) or call the Dallas County Elections Office at 214-637-7937.”

Tea Party Slams Obama Voters

Tom Cancredo

Did you know that if you voted for President Barack Obama then you probably do not know how to spell the word vote nor do you understand the basics of the United States?

Well according to former Colorado Republican Congressman Tom Tancredo, “People who could not spell the word vote or say it in English put a committed socialist ideologue in the White House — name is Barack Hussein Obama,” as reported by FOX News.

Tancredo threw his hat in the ring for the 2008 Presidential campaign but failed to gain support because of his strong opposition on illegal immigration. Thank goodness he did not receive the nominations to become the Republican Party front man because he would surely send this country back to the dark ages with civic testing for voting, poll taxes and maybe even slave trading.
