Numbers? remember jack welsh tweeted out after the last one that was good for the obama administration? there was a lot of healthy skepticism because you have to remember that 759,000 people magically found jobs according to household survey but didn t show up on companies payrolls. that was the discrepancy megyn: they all became self-employed. i guess. i mean, we don t know what happened to those people. are they working for cash, working part-time? we don t know why the two surveys didn t match last month, and there were a lot of people out there very skeptical. but it was a surprising number, so you have to figure that it s probably going to tick a little bit higher this month. when i talk to various economists, they say 7.9%, maybe it goes back to 8 megyn: 7.8 now. correct. if it goes boyfriend 8, it s above 8, it s bad for the president. it is just days ahead of the election. megyn: i mean, these are financial people. they are financial people, they know much more a
Less. that is already a huge problem. we don t want prices for food and goods and services to go up because consumers are strapped. they will consume less. neil: what will they do? the flip side, i heard it mentioned earlier, we could have more hourly workers, just working fewer hours. i don t see that. guest: i don t know how that is benefit because when you talk to people and we saw this in the labor numbers, the magical 759,000 people who were called who said they were working but did not show up on the payrolls. neil: and they answered the phone action 2. guest: so, the people, if you take both surveys at face value it mean they are working part time at home for themselves for cash, so it is all more evidence like the health care thing, that people are not having the 9:00 to 5:00 job with benefits, with a retirement plan, with vacation time. it is a part-time economy. that is what the administration
State says more than 759,000 have not had a photoi.d. over 19,000 of those have not are received one and issued at a rate of 200 a day. not enough says judge simpson. i expected more photo i.d. to have been issued by this time. remaining in five weeks before the general election. the gap between the photo i.d.s issued and the estimated need will not be closed. while the chairman of the state republican party gleason expressed disappointment the ruling is postponed, reform that affects sanctity of the election process. generally speaking this is not a bad ruling. this is something that upholds the constitutionality of the voter i.d. this is a really a win-win for both sides. the ruling comes on a day when early in-person voting
Enforced in order to vote. he blocked part of the law that requires people without an i.d. to vote by provisional ballot if they provide documentation within six days. he feared that could diseven franchise voters if people couldn t come up with the proof. he s also concerned about the distribution of id s for voters. he says i question whether sufficient time remains. i expected more photo i.d. s to be issued at this time. in the remaining five weeks before the general election the gap between the photo id s issued and the estimated need will not be closed. opponents charged the law was aimed at minorities and the elderly from voting. supporters say that is not true it could help stop voter fraud. out of more than 8 million voters in pennsylvania the state has said about 759,000 don t have a voter i.d. of those just over 1 1/2%, only 12,000 people have received one, or have even asked for that, they are being issued at a rate of about 200 a day.
Result in disenfranchisement. officials in pennsylvania said they have been doing all they can to distribute free photo i.d.s to anyone who wants them. people go to the department of transportation office you can get a free photo i.d. officials say they have given out about 200 a day. there are 8.2 million voters in pennsylvania. authorities say about 759,000 do not have a voter i.d., and since this law went into effect the authorities issued 12,602 voters i.d.s to people. but now we have this decision from judge robert simpson and it s expected to be again appealed back to the state supreme court. this with only five weeks to go before the election. martha: it could lead to confusion if they will allow people to ask for voter i.d. but if you don t have it it might be okay under this situation. so that could lead to confusion.
