[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a poll worker. This misunderstanding and confusion about voter ID drives me nuts.

We already have voter ID. It's your signature. When you sign the voter rolls you are attesting your identity and right to vote.

The only way to fake those votes is to forge hundreds and thousands of signatures, and do it so well that the forgeries pass the intense scrutiny of poll workers and poll watchers.

Picture ID requirements will add literally NOTHING to election security. These proposals are just more fodder for the sheeple who have no idea how elections actually work and are therefore easy to lie to.[/quote]

Then why do poll workers ask for ID?

Also, could you clarify what you mean? I don’t sign anything when I vote. I’m not sure what you mean about checking for forgeries. Could you explain? [/quote]

I am an election official in Virginia and I have never been required to ask a voter to sign the voter rolls.

Within the context of VA,

I think the OP here is referencing the document that voters can sign at a polling site, I think it is called the identify confirmation statement, that claims a certain identity from the voter rolls associated with that location. This has come in and out of use in Virginia. Signatures these days are of course worthless. Mine changes every time I occasionally pick up a pen.

I don't remember what signatures is used for comparison purposes.[/quote]
