The polls in Wisconsin have just closed, and reports are circulating that people in some areas were made to wait in long lines to cast their ballots.

Waiting in line to vote? As if that weren’t proof enough of voter suppression, MSNBC’s Chris Matthews and his panel all took their shots at Wisconsin’s “strict” voter ID laws, which are similar to those in many other states and require such information as proof of residency.
MSNBC has informed me a long line was caused by Wisc. voter id law.

This outrage on @hardball_chris on having to show ID and or proof of residency if you are a new voter is ridiculous pic.twitter.com/QOOgJUTDFN

A lot of those new voters are apparently college students who #FeelTheBern strongly but never quite figured out how the whole election process works.
#MSNBC reporting #BernieSanders stronghold Madison WU low turnout due to new voter ID law that depressed Univ. student turnout.

Outrageous!
@SalenaZitoTrib @hardball_chris amazing that you need an ID for virtually anything in life but asking one to have one to vote is suppression

@SalenaZitoTrib @Shanemober @hardball_chris you need a drivers license and proof of insurance when you drive. How did they ever survive.

@SalenaZitoTrib @hardball_chris You don't have to read a lot of history to discover that holding votes on the honor system is a bad idea.

@SalenaZitoTrib @hardball_chris Sad, just sad that something as simple as showing an ID is vilified." I guess it is also TSA travel bias.

@SalenaZitoTrib @hardball_chris Its called Leftist street theatre — manufactured outrage in service to "the greater good"

@SalenaZitoTrib @charlescwcooke @hardball_chris WI enjoys a GOP Supermajority thanks to Scott Walker. Voter ID not problem – RECORD turnout.
