If the 300,000 who wanted to vote had been able to, surely Wisconsin would have remained blue. The strict voter ID laws are to blame. Recounting the votes that were cast says nothing about all of those missing votes. Expect the GOP to crack down on the VRA even harder next time, unless somebody does something. There are two years until the next election: could we get those potential voters some legit ID's?
