Fretz on Garrett's vote for HR 4844
By R. Matthew FretzFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: R. Matthew Fretz - rmfretz@rmfretz.com
Ramsey - Independent Congressional Candidate for the Fifth, R. Matthew Fretz released the following statement regarding Representative Scott Garrett's vote for HR 4844, requiring current government issued photo identification to vote.
"Garrett just voted to make every senior citizen without a driver's license take a trip to the DMV. If he and his cronies really want to make sure we have fraud free elections, they need to deal with the hackable electronic voting machines. The greater threat to the integrity of our Democracy is the fact we can't recount elections anymore, not someone's grandmother who hasn't driven in five years."

Nope. I'm concerned with the fact that anyone (Right, Left, or Foreign) has the potential to do this. Every vote needs to be counted accurately and be verifiable. It's essential for our Democracy.
