Republican man in New Mexico registers his dog to vote as a Democrat

Voter ID laws are wrong because they are discriminatory against dogs. The dog, Buddy, fits the demographic of a democratic voter. He doesn't pay any federal income taxes and is hoping for a free government handout (of dog treats).
(TPM)- A Republican man in New Mexico wanted to show how easy he thought it was to commit voter fraud. So the Albuquerque man did just that: committed voter registration fraud by registering his dog, Buddy, to vote.

Local news station KOB Eyewitness News 4 in New Mexico reported on the man’s stunt this week.

“They should verify. Somebody should have verified this information and somebody should have come out and took a look at exactly who it was,” the unidentified man told the news station. “But I made up a birth date, and I made up a social security number and I had a voter registration card in my hand for Buddy two weeks later.”

The news station interviewed the man on camera but granted the dog owner anonymity, and faded out any personal information, though it’s wasn’t clear why. Read more here...
To balance this story out, here is a video of what a Republican dog might look like.
