Having to prove who you are. What a novel concept.

oh....so 75% of Americans are racist now?

Didn’t Debbie Whatshername Slutz just say that republicans really want to keep democrats from voting?

Polls? What happens when you have all mail-in ballots?

There is no excuse for this not being done all over America. Corrupt, ignorant politicians. No matter whether Democrats, Republicans, or any other. It is corruption of the worst description of rats that are supposed to represent us and a Constitutional protection of the vote.

75% agreed while 18%, using translators no doubt, disagreed.

Don't you just wish they would put something like this on a national ballot and the majority rules....kind of like it use to be before those in the minority would cry crocodile tears in front of some idiot judge who would overrule the wish of the majority.

The other 25% is worried about losing their “right” to vote 3 times.

When the identical poll was run, but multiple voting was permitted, the result was that 75% oppose requiring IDs and 25% support it, with five times as many votes overall...

Why there isn’t near unanimity(only 85%)in support for voter ID among Republicans is a mystery to me. There alway seems to be a consistent 10-20% of Republicans in a variety of polls on various issues that have radical Leftist positions-including some polls that show Republican support for 0bama of around 10%.

We are the only developed country in the world where you don’t have to show ID to vote. Old people and poor people can get ID. Ridiculous to use that as an excuse. There are old and poor people in European countries, even minorities, and they are not thought so stupid they couldn’t get an ID card.

We need to fight this stupid excuse that it would be unfair to require ID. If you are incapable of procuring an ID (especially if it were subsidized), Then you are too far gone to vote (the sick, the disabled).

There is someone on my street with nearly my identical name and I have to check those biddies at the polls or they will cheerfully mark me down as her, since our last names are pronounced the same. What a joke.

Voting SHOULD be somewhat difficult, to keep the non-serious riff-raff out. That is, if you call "getting an I.D." difficult.

Now we need to work on doing way with absentee and "early" voting (except in legitimately extenuating circumstances, of course.) Voting ON Election Day, AT a designated polling place only.

If this went into effect, the democrats would lose 3 Senate seats and 12 House seats.

As it currently stands anyone on Earth can live in America permanently, get government handouts, and vote in our elections. All they need to do is get here! It doesn’t matter how. Take a plane from Mombassa, a boat from Chile, or walk in from Mexico.

THERE IS NO INTERNAL ENFORCEMENT AT ALL.

opponents insist the laws will discourage many including minorities and older Americans from voting.

This *argument* is plain asinine?

Every 'minority' already has a Photo ID if they drive. They have a State Photo ID if they don't -- you need it to get 'public aid'. And for 'older people' who don't drive they'll come to your friggen house to take your photo, and for FREE.

The only 'minority' a Photo ID would discourage is an ILLEGAL (or maybe a FELON) and they aren't supposed to vote in the first place.

When I first was able to vote in the 70’s in MD, you had to show ID. In my case, the polling place was my old elementary school [less than 1 mile away] and the poll workers were ALL mothers and fathers from the neighborhood.

So, I DID NOT have to show ID - but they KNEW me on sight ...

NOW, the poll workers come from up-county, DON’T know me, AND DON’T ASK FOR ID ...

AND A LOT OF THEM ARE HISPANIC - SHOULD I BE ASKING FOR THEIR ID ???
