I already posted the info from the SSA (applies for Medicare, as well):
Evidence of Age
In general, you must provide your birth certificate. In some situations, we may accept another document that
shows your age. Some of the other documents we may accept are:
● U.S. hospital record of your birth (created at the time of birth)
● Religious record established before age five showing your age or date of birth
● Passport
● Final Adoption Decree (the adoption decree must show that the birth information was taken from the original
birth certificate)
And, yes, any of that does indeed have to be documented as valid.
However none of that verifies the fact that you live in the prescient in which you intend to vote nor does it having any bearing on the expiration dates of your ID. You signed up for Medicare in 1995, you forgot to renew your driver's licenses last week. You can't vote.
Two who submitted absentee ballots of people (friends or relatives) who died and two poll workers who voted additional times.
You could put every restrive law in place that you want, and it would not have stopped any of these.
In two of the three pending cases (as far as I can find info on), are husbands/wives who filled out and sent in their spouses absentee ballot, after they died.
If so how are poor blacks less able to get a photo ID then poor whites or other races?
And there are more poor whites than any other group. So voter ID would disproportionally affect whites not blacks and other races. And liberals are always saying dumb, poor whites are always voting against their interest by voting for republicans.
No, it's actually about NOT disenfranchising those who have the legal right to vote. Illegal aliens and legally present non-citizen residents, for example, don't have the right to vote.
The results from south FL was that many permanent residents did vote illegally. They however had perfectly good photo ID. They got caught by the media as they voted but got out of jury duty by claiming to be non citizens. So there goes that idea. The 3 recent incidents in NV all involved people with perfectly good photo ID. The one large voter scandal here involved 25 or so absentee ballots.

I actually think that states should give people free IDs. Drivers licenses, no, but IDs... yes.
I'm sure the costs involved with just IDs are probably very minimal. It takes 10 minutes at the DMV, and the plastic card cost is probably less than a dollar.
Arizona is amazing; drivers get a license that expires on your 65th birthday, so you never have to renew it. I'm guessing the usual renewal testing is done when you renew your car registration every year.
Kinda makes life a lot easier. Why can't more states do that?
When was the last time you had to pick up a prescription for Oxycontin? You do indeed have to show a photo ID for that, and for OTC cold/flu pills containing pseudoephedrine (NOT a narcotic). OTC means that a prescription isn't required to acquire it.
Just stop already with the lame excuses.
I would be quite surprised if a pharmacy refused to fill a valid Oxy script (or sell OTC Sudafed) because the patient's license was expired.
