[QUOTE="ArGyLe64, post: 1867201, member: 923"] I'm never reading the news ever again. I have already stopped watching the national news. You have some news sources reporting Obama not allowing time for troops to vote and now you have this garbage. I understand it's a reader's response but come on! Don't publish this garbage.

The new voter law in Pennsylvania requires everyone to have a state voter card.
