For years, South Carolina Republicans have complained about the names of dead voters being used to cast ballots in a broad voter fraud scheme. Now that a recent report by the State Law Enforcement Division has blown up those claims, unable to find a single example of a “zombie voter” committing fraud, one Democrat is demanding that Gov. Nikki Haley ® apologize for her party’s “bogus” crusade.

Of course, when caught, the piously intone....

“No matter what kind of distractions, rhetoric, or lawsuits have come from opponents of voter ID, the truth is it has always been about one thing and one thing only — securing the electoral process,”

What they want is to secure the electoral process for whites only. Jim Crow is alive and well in the fucking south.

Why would anybody in South Carolina think they have zombie voters, when everybody knows they're all up here in Chicago?

It's a generic opposition tactic to claim that fraud is involved in elections.
The aim is not to prove that there is such a thing, but to instill a fear about the possibility of election of frauds, even if evidence of fraud is not found, they can claim that the ruling party pulled strings to make it appear otherwise. Of course that also is true, so people generally think of a possibility of fraud, unless you are someone who voted for the ruling party.

The south has a long history of various mechanisms to deter blacks from voting. Some subtle...such as poll taxes. Some not so subtle.

...in Chicago?

Vote early, vote often. That's the Chicago way.

Deter blacks from voting? How do you know that they will be voting democrat?

If there is one thing that southern whites know it is that blacks overwhelming vote for democrats.

Goes back to 1964 when Lyndon Johnson (democrat) got the Civil Rights Law passed. He commented at the time that he had "lost the south" for the next 50 years.

History indicates he was somewhat optimistic in that pronouncement. May take a lot more than 50 years for the redneck assholes to die off.

Well, it is true that minorities often vote for a certain party, but I don't see any reason why blacks should not vote republican, other than the fact that Obama is (half)Black, which is the reason they vote for him probably, so I guess it's the same reason that republicans don't vote for him, so what really is the difference between the two?
Well, the difference is, you reprimand one side, and pat the others on the back.

So you're saying that politics in the US are racially segregated?
