Sorry, I'm so late in posting again - got really busy at work and then supper and just now back at my 'puter.

I don't think illegals can get a driver's license in Alabama, so if they are "carding" everyone at the polling places that should leave them out. In other states, though, it does make you wonder.

I, like you, think voting is sacred and that one should have to produce AT LEAST a driver's license or whatever they give to people who don't drive (disabled, etc) - but ONLY that kind of I.D. which shows you are a verified American citizen.

I'm afraid I don't know that much about what criteria are used at polling places - seems they should have to also check against your ssn or something...

About the birth certificate. That seems to me to be the only fool proof way, then match to ssn. and go from there.

I'm not sure why there isn't a consistant way, times, id's, machines and ballots across the Country. Also a data base to cross check the info. Start at a certain time and make sure the registration is clear long before voting day.

Seems it would keep out illegals and fraud.

But what do I know? I'm just one of those sensible people
that get together here on Free Republic! ;-)
