David Steinhof Calls on Mass Democrats to Support Photo ID to Vote

Dr. David Steinhof, GOP candidate for US Congress in Massachusetts District 4, is calling on the Massachusetts State Democratic Party to support legislation at the state and federal level to require photo ID in order to vote in elections.

Said Steinhof, “Over the weekend, we learned that the Massachusetts State Democratic Caucus required everyone entering the event to determine the future of their organization was required to show a photo ID in order to get in and participate.  No ID, no vote. 

“The Democrats clearly understand the necessity for people to prove that they are who they say they are in order to sure the integrity of the voting process for their own organization.  Therefore, they must understand the importance for ensuring the integrity of the vote for elected officials and ballot questions.

“Voting is our most sacred civic right and responsibility.  I call on all Massachusetts Democrats, including Deval Patrick, Elizabeth Warren, John Kerry and Joe Kennedy III, to support legislation at the state and federal level to require photo ID in order to vote, just as they do at their own convention.”
