Bernie Sanders-endorsed Pennsylvania Democrat congressional nominee Bob Brooks, who opposes the SAVE Act and efforts he describes as “restricting voting rights,” required identification to attend a campaign event, with his campaign team denying entry to at least one would-be attendee. [snip] Brooks has been endorsed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.\ Brooks told The Morning Call earlier this year: Donald Trump and Washington Republicans are once again resorting to lies about our elections because they’re failing to address skyrocketing costs here at home. The truth is we have some of the best-run elections in the country right here in Pennsylvania. I oppose the SAVE Act and I oppose efforts to restrict voting rights. What I do support is voting rights legislation like the John Lewis Voting Rights Act that would end partisan gerrymandering like we saw in Texas, end voter suppression and ban dark money in politics. We should be making voting more accessible, not let politicians restrict it so they can stay in power. Brooks’s campaign, however, requires identification for attendees at campaign events. His campaign team also denied entry to a would-be attendee. [snip] Brooks also appeared with Buttigieg in a March interview that went viral in May after RNC Research posted a clip saying the two were being “coached on how to be authentic.” “Remind me the district number again? 7?” Buttigieg asked before the interview. Brooks is challenging incumbent Rep. Ryan Mackenzie (R-PA), who criticized his Democrat opponent during a speech at the 2026 Republican Convention. [snip] “Bob Brooks has apologized for supporting the police, and shockingly, he even called volunteer firefighters shitbags and scabs on his own Facebook page because he said they were taking away jobs from union firefighters,” he said. “That’s what crazy looks like.” “So why would the Democrats recruit Bob Brooks? Because he will do the bidding for the establishment Democrats and far-left radicals who are funding his campaign,” Mackenzie continued. “If he is elected, he has said he would repeal the Working Families Tax Cuts, and that means going back to wide-open borders and higher taxes.” [snip] Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s (D) New York City required applicants seeking paid emergency snow-shoveling work to present multiple forms of identification as Democrat leaders in the city opposed voter-ID requirements. The Obama Presidential Center similarly requires Illinois residents to show ID to receive free Tuesday admission or a resident discount. President Donald Trump addressed Democrat opposition to voter-ID requirements at the Republican midterm convention in Dallas this week. [snip] “They say, ‘It’s important not to have a voter ID because it’s extraordinarily difficult for some people,’” Trump continued. “They have more bulls— than any human beings on the planet.” (*) Full article: https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2026/09/11/pennsylvania-democrat-bob-brooks-opposes-voter-id-measure-requires-id-to-attend-campaign-event/ Post navigation Charlie Kirk reactions showed ‘just how dark some people’s hearts are’ DHS chief confirms: Ilhan Omar ‘married her brother to try to bring him into the United States’
