The GOP Is Making It Harder for College Students to Vote
(Bloomberg) -- Republican lawmakers are making it harder for students to cast ballots where they attend school, after the GOP suffered stinging recent electoral losses largely due to a historic surge in turnout from younger voters backing Democrats.
A new law in Idaho specifically bars the use of student identification cards to vote, while a change in Ohio law means students will no longer be able to use tuition or college housing receipts as a form of voter ID, long a popular option for students without state drivers licenses.
Similar legislation has been introduced in at least 11 other states this year, including the presidential battlegrounds of Pennsylvania and Nevada, according to Voting Rights Lab. Other bills have also targeted student voters, such as one in Texas that would bar college campuses from serving as polling places.
Younger voter turnout surged in Wisconsins recent Supreme Court election one that hinged on abortion rights helping Democrats recapture the court majority. Former Republican Governor Scott Walker tweeted that younger voters are the issue, blaming years of radical indoctrination in schools and social media and calling for conservatives to come together to work harder to counter liberal indoctrination to save America.
