How does grandma cash a check if she doesn’t have any form of ID?

The same way people did it for years upon years. Many people live in places where "everybody knows everybody". Requiring ID's for cashing checks, voting etc. is a concept foreign to many people who grew up in small town America. I'm all for ID's required to vote, I'm just saying that I can see how people from certain places find it odd because they have lived their lives with everyone knowing them, and they knowing everyone around them.

Its just a misnomer to think people have to have an ID to cash checks, therefore they must have one they can produce at the poll.

If one year in advance all voters are notified that they can get free voter ID’s if they have no other ID. It would work. Each party would make sure their old folks and homebound would get a ride to the Board of Election where they can produce either bills, or SS check stub or something that IDs them. Then they can get a card made for free. No problem....unless there is something to hide......
