On Friday, July 28th, 2016, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit Court overturned an earlier decision made by North Carolina's Middle District Judge Thomas Schroeder, which upheld GOP lawmakers decision in 2013 to strengthen voter identification laws. The intent of the law was to prevent voter fraud by requiring certain types of photo identification to be presented to vote. The laws also restricted early voting and eliminated same-day voter registration. The 4th Circuit (Federal) Appellate Court (headed up by one Mr. Roger Gregory, ultimately decided on by Diana Motz, James Wynn Jr, and Henry Floyd) decided to overturn the lower court's decision because of information discovered that the laws were intended to target African American voters in an effort to disenfranchise them. The laws were first enacted in 2013 after the GOP took the House and Senate in North Carolina in 2010/2011. It repealed the previous laws that were on the books set by Democrats, which made voting easier (and fraud easier as well). What has been said in the media throughout the weekend after the reversal is that there are not many documented cases of fraud and that the laws the GOP put into place fought what is essentially an imaginary poltergeist. Even though a good case of fraud would generally go undetected, as is the point. The timing of this decision, done by the same court which made same sex marriage legal in the Commonwealth of Virginia, is pretty clear to see. Democrats want more leverage in the upcoming election by A. showing that they are on the "side of people of color" and B. making voting easier to rig. It's not so much about racism. It's not about racism at all. What makes it harder for black people to obtain the necessary form of voter ID? If it's about poverty, then there are more poor whites in North Carolina than there are poor blacks. So, if anything, voter ID law should theoretically impact poor whites who vote Republican more than anyone else. Clearly, what's happening here, is an attempt by the Democrat party to set the stage for questionable activities to happen during the upcoming Hillary vs. Trump 2016 Presidential Election. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– If you want to support me to continue to crank out these videos, please visit my website http://www.anthonyblogan.com/contact/ and click on that donate button for me! –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– You can catch me micro-blogging on a near 24/7basis on my social media platforms: http://www.twitter.com/anthonyblogan http://www.facebook.com/lcs.flyers Please take a moment and subscribe to my YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/aloge?sub_confirmation=1 Stay tuned to my website http://www.anthonyblogan.com for more updates as they come in! –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Voter ID cards in North Carolina are free. https://www.ncdot.gov/dmv/driver/id/ Federal appeals court blocks North Carolina voter ID law http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/07/29/federal-appeals-court-blocks-north-carolina-voter-id-law.html The ‘smoking gun’ proving North Carolina Republicans tried to disenfranchise black voters https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/07/29/the-smoking-gun-proving-north-carolina-republicans-tried-to-disenfranchise-black-voters/ Poverty Rate by Race/Ethnicity Timeframe: 2014 http://kff.org/other/state-indicator/poverty-rate-by-raceethnicity/ Roger Gregory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Gregory United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Court_of_Appeals_for_the_Fourth_Circuit Judge Roger Gregory of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit urges law students to ‘go against the grain’ at BLSA banquet http://news.law.wfu.edu/2015/02/judge-roger-gregory-of-the-u-s-court-of-appeals-for-the-fourth-circuit-urges-law-students-to-go-against-the-grain-at-wfu-blsa-banquet/ Judge Thomas Schroeder https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_D._Schroeder COPY OF THE DECISION FROM THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 16-1468 https://localtvwtkr.files.wordpress.com/2016/07/161468-p.pdf Diana Gribbon Motz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Gribbon_Motz James A.
