Almost as if Voter ID laws exist for some other purpose...

[mudryikot]

Is a driving license acceptable as ID in US?

[skittish_derby]

yes.

[hardblue]

So, does everyone drive and have a nice car?

[cindyanne1]

Yeah, it makes you wonder. Driver's licenses are generally only gotten by those who drive. Student ID's are generally only gotten by college students. Passports are generally only gotten by people who travel... all of which are rather privileged conditions.

I said something like that to my husband when he was talking about how "it's not too much to ask to have a picture ID to vote." and it made him think! Then he said, "Well, yeah... I can see that..."

[cindyanne1]

Yes you would think they could make it so a free photo ID could be gotten at the same time/during voter registration. That would make it pretty simple to have one.

Sorry meant to reply above.

What's wrong with the picture: The actual (alleged) voter fraud folk don't appear Republican enough.

[deborahkla]

Yeah, they should all be white, middle-aged, fat males.
