Rogan, J.D. Vance Discuss Not Showing Voter ID to Vote: ‘Crazy,’ ‘Totally Insane’
EXCERPT:
VANCE: “(laughs) I mean, think about this. You can’t — if you can’t require people to show voter ID, then I think you’re inviting fraud into your system. And there’s also something implicitly very racist about this. Because what they say is, voter ID means that black people aren’t going to vote. Well, number one, if you look at polls, the same level of support for voter ID exists in the black community as in the white community. It’s about 75, 80 percent of blacks, 75, 80 percent of whites support voter ID. But they’re basically saying that black people can’t get identification. When they say that voter ID is racist, they’re implicitly saying black people can’t get an identification. I think that’s an actual racist concept. I actually assume that my fellow — or the black citizens are my fellow Americans and they can do the same thing that every other citizen can do, which is get identification.”
