elderly also more often than not have ID as well.

I'm not entirely sure if, for instance, my grandmother does. She stopped driving some time ago, so I don't know about a current picture ID.

However, just try and keep her from voting. I can hear her already: "I need an ID? Well, lets go get one right now. I'll get my purse."

These Dem idiots consistently sell their constituents short. The same minorities who fought for their Civil Rights in the 50s and 60s, will now be kept from voting because it's a little inconvenient to produce a current photo ID? Please.

These little leftist college boobs are only doing what their sociology professor told them to do. If the reporter asked even one f-in question about their ID’s for school, driving etc, they would’ve stood with fingers up their butts without a clue (as is their usual pose I’m sure)

College students should be PROHIBITED FROM PROTESTING ANYTHING and TOTALLY IGNORED. They’re the little bastards that are responsible for this bastardized situation we have in Washington right now. Unless you’re a valid citizen, educated, employed, and paying taxes, you have no desired input. SIT DOWN, SHUT UP, AND DO YOUR HOMEWORK.

A voter ID bill would keep young people and the elderly from voting

Baloney.

I never had a problem showing ID to vote when I was a student.

Most students have a checking account at a bank.

You must have valid, state or federal ID (such as DL or passport) to open a deposit account.

Therefore they probably have it already.

College students who protest having to show an ID to vote do so because their Drivers Licenses are from the state they come from. To wit, those who voted in NH, say around UNH, had MA drivers licenses.

“College students who protest having to show an ID to vote do so because their Drivers Licenses are from the state they come from.”

And getting a dl from the state they are in would probably incur car insurance hikes from their home state insurance companies, who thought the car was being kept in Virginia, Minnesota and not Los Angeles or Cambridge, MA.

No reason at all why they can't vote absentee in the state that they reside. Or, they can declare residency in the state where they go to college and vote locally.

But, they can't do both. :-) They also can't vote multiple times at different polling areas around their college ...seems like I remember stories about Dem "party buses" that traded an afternoon's worth of votes for booze.

I’d like to amend and extend my remarks- that also means they could vote locally in Amhearst or Hartford, and absentee in their home town. A local ID would eventually get back to the registrar in their home county, and loss of that second ballot!

Yawn.

I'd be surprised if even 10% of college students vote in community/state/national elections... most don't give a damn because they're in a town that's often not their home town.

Anyone incapable of obtaining ID is too stupid or lazy to be allowed to vote, anyway.

College students are REQUIRED to have ID to attend classes, participate in intramural sports, music, check out books, and other miscellaneous activities. Nearly every single American needs an ID to cash a check or even open a bank account. Now tell me again, what is the problem?
