That's your bogus, fake reason to keep blacks and hispanics and young people from voting.
You are either ignorant to the fact voter fraud is extremely rare and insignificant, or you are intentionally being dishonest.
OMG. I don't care if someone is black, Hispanic or young and wants to vote - as long as they are an American citizen.
I don't think voter fraud is rare. If you do anything else of significance you have to have an ID to prove your identity. Why shouldn't voting be the same? It's not hard to get an ID. If you don't drive you can still get a state-issued ID.

Why can't people be rational? Why can't people be more like me?
Gee whiz
There are people not as smart as you and they get to vote.
The people that you would keep from voting vastly outnumber the people who vote fraudulently.
Do you care? No because you want your side to win by keeping blacks and hispanics from voting.

You realize there are municipalities in this Country where a voter does not have to be an American citizen to vote, right?
I have an Anglo sounding name. I live in an affluent neighborhood. Why in the world would I need an ID?
Next quote would answer that question.

Only those that pass can vote. Is that OK with you?
That would disenfranchise even more and even allow more of the ineligible to vote as well.

Please present examples because from what I understand most of these people would be elligible for a perminant ID.

Are we clear here?
What don't you understand?
No we are not clear, there are plenty of felons who are citizens and their felony is their barrier. What I dont understand is what is stoping anyone from getting an ID.

And the last few quotes are the standard objection with no context.

The Constitution also says we all have the right to bear arms, yet we are now required to show ID (and get a background check) when purchasing firearms.
Do you support removing all background checks and ID when buying guns?
White GOP voters think brown people and immigrants are 2nd class citizens.
That is a lie.
