People are adults and if they are to lazy to get an id that is their problem.  As has been shown minimal number of people don't have an id and they are easlly obtained for those that need it.  When finally pushed to the wall people finally got their Real Id drivers licenses.

Bam!

 

That's the question. It's a fools errand to expect to eliminate any possibility of a fraudulent vote.

Driver's licenses and state ID cards do not show citizenship status.

I don't object to voter ID laws per se. I just feel that absent a constitutional amendment this is a state issue. 

 

 


Of course it's a state issue.

Signatures don't mean a thing.  Stupid kevin thinks poll workers are handwriting experts. 

 

And liberals can't find any examples of voter suppression

 

Absentee, drop-off, and mail-in ballots don't require voters to show ID to anyone.

 

Another kevin lie as people have to supply the DL or govt id number on the ballot

 


"Signatures don't mean a thing " Stupid Tom's Stupidity of the Month (so far).

 

The poll workers who verify ballot signatures are in fact trained in handwriting recognition. And any ballot with a signature that is questioned is set aside for further scrutiny.

 

Stupid Tom can't read. I said that those ballots don't require ID to be SHOWN to anyone. English comprehension is not Tom's strong point.

 

Stupid evil little Tom always weasels away when I ask him exactly how an "illegal" ballot can be counted as legitimate. He also weasels when I ask him why anyone would try to cast an illegal vote.

 

This is a fake issue flogged by MAGA. Nothing more.

Yes, people like Tom always dismiss the difficulties others have by calling them "lazy." And now he dismisses the disenfranchisement of others as "minimal." I'm sure he wouldn't mind dying in a car wreck on a day when such deaths are "minimal "

 

He's a horrid little person. 

 

I will continue to regard the stripping away of the rights of even one person as an absolute evil.

The SAVE Act would require all future registrations to provide proof of citizenship  Those who are aleady registered would have to show a govt id to vote..

What about people who are on vacation or working out of state? Would they be able to vote by mail?

MAGA is against anything but in-person voting, because such a restriction depresses turnout.

 

Most states (I'd say "all" but I'm not certain) require proof of citizenship to register. So signatures are how ballots are verified. No need to impose additional requirements.

 

And we know that voter suppression is the only reason for MAGA's crusade.
