Thom Hartmann caller: My Ohio License was blocked by New Jersey! (trying to get Voter ID)



Thom Hartmann talks with a caller from Ohio who says that state refuses to issue him a driver's license due to it being blocked by the state of New Jersey.

(This caller is a 76-year-old veteran and registered Democrat from Homeworth, Ohio, 45 miles south of Cleveland.)

From the September 4 Thom Hartmann program.

hadnt been to NJ. the ticket had description of man at 5'10'. brother is 6'3". last i heard, he was going to have to hire an attorney and they insisted he show in court. he was afraid he would be arrested. went a long time without valid license.

i forgot about that. i wonder what happened, or if he is still with a suspended license.

it was a fuckin mess.

If someone can't get their drivers license renewed, legally they can't drive either. The time, effort and money to reconcile these issues that appear to have no substance is outrageous. Yes, it is an ISSUE!
