[quote=FruminousBandersnatch]You're attempting to conflate registration fraud with the in-person voter fraud all of these voter ID laws are supposed to prevent.

There has been almost zero evidence of in person voter fraud (for example, in Texas over 8 years and something like 40,000,000 votes cast, they found one instance where some poor kid went to vote and ended up voting in his deceased fathers name because the father hadn't been removed from the rolls and they had the same name).

Voter ID laws have had a bad couple of months, as they keep getting blocked by courts for being discriminatory (just as their authors intended them to be).

Non-citizens are not eligible to vote, and most (if not all) registration forms explicitly ask if the person filling out the form is a citizen.

Yes, they could lie.

Then what's next is a security cost/benefit analysis. Is the harm being or potentially being caused sufficient that additional security measures are necessary, and is the risk/harm reduction provided by such security measures worth the cost of/burden imposed by such security measures.
