The vote is a cornor stone of democracy. Especially in this day and age where every vote counts. Requireing a legal ID would certainly eliminate many avenues of fraud. The only reason anyone would be against it is fear of a valid election.
How can anyone live today without a valid ID? How do you cash a check? Buy a drink or tobacco products? How do you buy a car? How do you sign up for gov benefits such as welfare or Social Security?
It will effect both repblicans and democrats voters the same. That is unless one thnks that democrats have less legal votes with ID's
No, it will affect POOR people regardless of party, but both sides have made the calculation that it's a partisan issue.
In this country, you can't get away with trying to screw black people or Muslim people or female people, but you can screw the poor with impunity until the cows come home.
i just want to know why republicans are pushing for this now.
why is it so important now when they didnt care all these prior years when they had the numbers in the legislature and state senates, why the sudden push now?
fraud has always been around and always will be. i think the fraud card is overplayed anyways as it is.
How do they drive? Cash SS checks? Welfare checks? Get Food stamps? Or any other form of government assistance?
How do they rent or own a home without ID?
its not black people, its poor people in general, and the elderly who would be affected by this the most.
i believe voter ID is a political play to get a perceived advantage, and i dont trust any politician who actually thinks they could convince me that they care about honesty and integrity.
its all about doing the most i can to survive for re-election.

Again...how do those people cash checks, receive benefits, drive, own or rent a home without some form of ID?
It's hogwash and the dems/libs don't like it because they encourage and count on voter fraud.
Nothing at all wrong with people having to prove who they are and if they are eligible to vote.
If you don't have ID, you are either not a functioning member of society, or you are engaged in vote fraud. I'm not seeing the problem with the new laws, either way.
It's disgraceful and if I were a black American citizen, I would be highly offended.
