Good News During a Bad Time

Lucianne.com links to Business & Politics Review which reports some good news. The Republican legislature in KY overrode a veto by the state's Democrat governor.

Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear tried to veto a proposed bill requiring voters to present photo ID at their polling location.

Governor Beshear earlier stated he vetoed the bill since it created an obstacle to voting rights and was “undermining our democracy.”

Republicans outnumber Democrats 29-9 in the senate and 61-37 in the house.

On April 14, Republicans overwhelmingly overrode the governor’s veto in both chambers.

The first sentence is retrospective, looking back after the fact he did try to veto it and that attempt failed. Other states need to make the photo ID requirement a part of their election law.
