During yesterday’s primary, there was a news article that was labeled Nuns with dated ID turned away at polls. This is from the recent supreme court decision that you need to show ID at the polling place. In the article, it noted that these sisters were in their 80s and 90s. 80 and 90 year old nuns have no reason to have a valid drivers license. They showed a passport but that was considered unacceptable. Voter fraud is an issue, but a group of nuns? Seriously? You know, that is just wrong and a sign of the times in this current political climate. When you are disenfranchising nuns, that is just wrong. What tops it is what came from the Indiana Secretary of State Late Tuesday, Secretary of State Todd Rokita was unapologetic.
“Indiana’s Voter ID Law applies to everyone. From all accounts that we’ve heard, the sisters were aware of the photo ID requirements and chose not to follow them,” he said in a statement released by his office.
WOW! It might be Catholic guilt, but I have learned that you never cross a nun!
