[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just give me a reasonable example of someone who can’t get an ID[/quote] “Sammie Louise Bates moved to Texas from Illinois in 2011. She wanted to vote last year, but all she had was an Illinois identification card, and under Texas’s strict voter ID law, that wasn’t acceptable. To get a Texas ID, Bates needed a birth certificate from her native Mississippi, which cost $42. That was money that Bates, whose income is around $321 a month, didn’t have. "I had to put $42 where it would do the most good," Bates, who is African-American, testified Tuesday, the first day of the trial over Texas’s ID law. "We couldn't eat the birth certificate.” https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/texas-voter-id-trial-witnesses-describe-burden-getting-id-msna403661[/quote]
