Why would these laws hurt Obama?

Because minorities and youngs tend to be more politically apathetic, anything that makes voting harder decreases turnout among them... and they're the Dems base.
How does requiring ID make voting harder? Not having an ID would make someone's whole life harder. They may be politically apathetic, but they might like buying cigarettes, alcohol, going to strip clubs, using credit cards, cashing checks, driving, and so on, so forth. Plus, don't you think it is absurd to require ID for all of these simple, daily tasks, but yet our own democracy, the very foundation of our country, doesn't need to verify someone's identity? I wont sell you these Swisher Sweets, but you can go down to that church or whatever and vote if you would like. Jesus. You guys make zero sense.

I don't understand what's going on in this thread?

Someone apparently thinks 5% of the electorate, all Obama supporters, will not be able to provide ID to vote. Haha.
