Kansas: New Law Requires Photo ID, Proof of Citizenship to Vote in Kansas

Kansas: New Law Requires Photo ID, Proof of Citizenship to Vote in Kansas...Republican Gov. Sam Brownback signed a bill to protect the integrity of elections, he said: "We must be able to accurately and fairly discern the will of the people of Kansas."...ACLU undermines efforts to expand the right to vote to "historically marginalized groups" such as racial minorities, low-income voters, the disabled, and senior citizens...The "disenfranchised poor and minority" folks cannot even obtain FOOD STAMPS without a valid photo ID! (So, what's the problem?)
