If you go by the number of speeding tickets issued on I45 today, 99.7% of drivers weren't speeding. If you were to actually measure each cars speed, you d probably find that 90% of all the drivers were speeding.

Without voter ID, you'll never know how much voting fraud there is.

In Chicago face reconigtion software is at the ballot box. They can see if the same person voted twice. Fingerprint software would require everyone to have their finger prints taken.

That would be interesting but costlier. Democrats will still figure out a way to claim passive identification still causes a "disparate impact" and is "racist" perhaps claiming it's too hard for Democrat voters to go get their prints on file.. The democrats real goal is to get every person elgible or not on the voter rolls then "make sure" they vote.

Actually it is pretty easy to check on voter impersonation fraud. All you have to do is call people whom the system thinks have voted and ask them if they did. A simple sampling effort by a polling firm will show that it isn't a problem. It's also easy to see how many people will be disenfranchised by voter ID requirements. In Texas it is over 600 thousand.

And to get government services, cash a check, buy tobacco or alcohol, get into certain venues and government buildings AND to claim any reparations. I'm sure the ONLY one they claim trouble with is voting. All the others they have ID for. Give me a break.

Well last time I checked my elderly relatives are not much for going to concerts and bars. You don't need ID to enter just about any Government building in an area that is open to the public. Wow, Congress actually approved reparations for former slaves(sarcasm)!

I and all voters have an ID. It's call the voter registration card. Asking me for a second ID is like a cop asking for additional ID at a traffic stop.

Does your voter registration card have a photo of you?

Really? In which phone directory would I find your cell phone number and work number?

If illegals broke the law to come in to the country they have already demonstrated that they will pick and choose which laws they will obey. Some use stolen social security numbers to get earned income credits they aren't entitled to or various social welfare benefits they are aren't entitled to. Why is it we should assume that they'd never register to vote or just show up at the polling place saying they are someone else?
