Don't give us the obvious...which is to propagate vote fraud and make it easier to fake votes for Crooked Hillary.
All I can get from the idiots at DU, while in my disguise, is that it is so damned difficult to get a photo ID.
I call bullshit...well, I call it here, 'cause if I call it over there, they ban me pretty quickly, 'cause there ain't no arguing with them idiots.
But really, is it that damn hard for ANYONE, regardless of age or infirmity, to get a photo ID of the type required for voting?
I guarantee they can get one for food stamps, welfare, obamaphones, obamahomes, whatever else they need/want for free.
What's the damned problem?
I cannot find anyone in my circles of acquaintances, over the age of 16 or so, that does not have a photo ID or does not possess the correct paperwork to get a FREE one.
I do know a few, not personally, whose backs are slightly damp, that cannot get a photo ID, but that's the way it should be.
And a Matricular Card does not count.
You answered your own question, OldSmaj and I couldn’t agree with you more.
It’s my experience that anyone who can legally vote can easily get a proper photo ID and if they’re low income or elderly they can get it free.
My guess is that it is an emotional issue that resonates with their constituent groups. The same applies to the constant harping on unequal pay for women, no matter how many studies show that it has nothing to do with gender but is effected by working hours, outside responsibilities, motherhood etc., the issue still gives female LIVs the vapors!
There is very real history for minorities and the right to vote and the Democrats have it in their pocket. In the days of the DEMOCRAT South (old Confederacy and such), there were poll taxes and literacy requirements to be able to vote, but if you were white you could vote anyhow. Some of the same shenanigans were done in the Southwest against Latinos and American-Indians. Pacific Coast against Asian-derived citizens and so on.
Thus, given that the DEMOCRATS have made a SUCCESSFUL mantra of identity politics along with their age-old class warfare, this is a winning game for them. They cheerfully dismiss their historical involvement with vote suppression while TRUMPeting the opposition's historical failings. They have successfully equated voter identification with minority voter suppression AND given the MSM's BIAS, they get aways with it every time!
