That's cool, if you want to make everyone wait in line on election day and have to show an ID, that is cool, it doesn't affect me any since we will continue to vote by mail in my state.

You do realize the voting booth doesn't have your picture on file, if you show up with a fake ID, you could still vote in person. So, if you are so scared of people casting a ballot in someone else's name in person, then have at it, pass ID laws, but don't expect to change the voting laws in my state.

Wonderful, Trump apparently gets his news from conspiracy websites, the next four years should be really fun.


He is looking as Presidencial as his voters look tempered Moderate Conservatives.

Not all states have early voting, the more oppressive states have very limited times for voting, and offer very few voting stations throughout the state.

Why does this surprise you?

What Websites do you consider "conspiracy Websites?"

I would remind you that Barack Obama told us to read the "Huffington Post!" Talk about bias!!! They should perhaps be put in the category of "fake news!"
Did you see the talk you are referring to. Obama was NOT encouraging an illegal immigrant to vote. The
person he was encouraging to vote was a legal immigrant who was afraid that if she voted, immigration officials might try to deport her family (who might have been here illegally). What Obama said was that she did not need to fear that because her voting would be secret. While he certainly would have preferred that she vote for Hillary, he never actually said that either.

You make up things that did not happen.

We do have to sign our ballots that we mail in, which makes sense. Though I do have a few different signatures, though for things like voting, I always use my more formal signature.
