Right, because voting is the one aspect of government that has absolutely no corruption or illegal activity involved.

That isn't the point and you know it. It's disenfranching tens to hundreds of thousands of people to "solve" a problem that literally does not exist.

Your question is meaningless and irrelevant.

Are these people too poor ? If so they can't get any government services without an ID.

Did you know that you can register to vote online and not provide proof of citizenship and that registration is valid for life; the government never asks you to renew it...ever.

Dude, if more people can cast votes in a precinct then live there, then anything is possible. Who needs stinking IDs?

Voter fraud runs about 0.000005%. Most manufacturers cannot engineer anything to that tolerance.

It's disgusting how readily you are willing to shut eligible voters out of voting because the GOP tells you to think this way.

It doesn't matter why they have no ID. You fail to address the fact that there literally is no voter fraud issue in this country.

How do they verify that people are "eligible" voters ?

How would anyone be able to prove it ? Especially if they are not looking for it or checking the validity of the voters casting votes.

Once again...voter fraud runs something like 0.000005%. That isn't a widespread problem that is worth disenfranchising tens to hundreds of thousands of voters, and you know it. You're just mouthing the party line.
