I will never understand what is so bloody difficult, burdensome, racist, evocative of Jim Crow and slavery and poll taxes and every other injustice ever committed by man against man than to pull out your damn drivers license or your library card or your SS card (even though it’s not supposed to be used for ID) or something ANYTHING that might be construed as an ID card so that this privelege, right, honor, and duty of voting is somehow elevated above the act of handing out free cupcakes at a birthday party or even using a public restroom.
Pretty simple to enlarge the number of ‘proofs’ and include the nonsense number of 1640 people cited without the proper ID. Any sort of govt aid they get will need ID. How many of those lost theirs and too lazy to apply for a new one?
I was in the hospital recently and in the emergency room were any number of homeless people. I really think thats how far down the ladder one needs go to find people with no valid ID. This is likely where they found the 1640.
