The expired driver's license has a picture on it, and a bill, r several of them should prove that you have lived at that address for some time.
I think she’s lying.
Many really older rural people do not have birth certificates, mostly because they were born at home and reporting all those years ago wasn’t necessarily great. But all states - especially states like Texas, which are likely to have unregistered births - have procedures for this.
She got a driver’s license before, so presumably they could just go check it. This poor old lady is just being used by the left.
Just sayin’, not agreeing. Short story, if they notify you well in advance.... do it then.
I am 81. Needed my every 5 year license renewal. Not allowed to get it on line.
They notified me well in advance. Didn’t think I would have any problems. I had a copy but it didn’t have my parents names/dates.
After a couple months on the phone and emailing, I got no where, but at the last moment I was going through my hoardings and found the right copy I had forgotten I had applied for years before.
Trying to get a BC in anther state is like pulling teeth. I’m Caucasian, btw.
I had no excuse!
BTW.. I was also finger printed electronically.
She just needs to cross the Mexican border and say she is from Haiti. Then she will get everything she needs.
They had to find an 82-year old woman -— probably too old to need ID for the liquor store.
If she’s too stupid to figure out how to get a copy of her birth certificate and she comes from a family who won’t help her, she really shouldn’t be voting.
I ordered replacement birth certificates for two members of my family online in NC. I would think Texas has something comparable.
Also, my hubby had to get his DL same time. He had his BC copy. Everything went okay but when his license came in the area around his head was scribbled and just his face was shown. Mine wasn’t, WTH?
Why don’t these idiots help her get id???
There was an act passed recently called REAL. It make getting a drivers license a bit of a pain, tut the license also becomes proof of citizenship.
There are plenty of ways to work around it. The state will help her find alternates to the birth certificate, if she can find the right people.
“I think she’s lying”
A failing memory, I wonder if the Press asked why her family hasn’t done anything to help her out in that regard. If she wants ID she WILL have to forfeit her license. You can’t have both a DMV DL and a DMV ID. One or the other.
unless there was never one filed, goto the county clerk and get a friggin COPY!

Does she have her vax card? Otherwise, she is an unclean Trump voter who doesn’t deserve to vote.
“Black woman in rural Texas”. Not a whiff of bias or agenda in that title....
I missed the part of the story where the Klan gathered in her front yard and burned a cross. Isn’t that supposed to be the narrative?
Get an ID Grandma. Need help with it, I’m sure someone the county- or from either party could help you.
Don’t remember how many times I’ve had to RENEW my DL but I never had to produce a birth certificate.
That's pretty weird. When I renewed my DL last year, because of the lockdown here in NY State, I managed to renew it online. They just used my photo from the last time.
When I applied for my pension from New York State back in 2003, I submitted my original birth certificate. They wouldn't accept it because it didn't have a raised seal on it, so I ordered another one from the county I was born in (Monroe), and had to pay $25 for the damn thing.
