But voting doesn’t require an ID.

If you oppose a law requiring showing an ID in order to vote, then you are for voter fraud. There is no other plausible reason. [/quote]

Voting is a right, not a privilege.  Furthermore, where is any evidence that there is even voter fraud to begin with?  This is just a new way to disenfranchise black people.  [/quote]

Thank you. Voting is NOT a privilege! It is a right and a responsibility. We should be making it easier to vote not harder. And these laws are a solution looking for a problem. There are actual problems with voting that these legislatures could be working on, like the fact that so many of their citizens waited ridiculous amounts of time to cast their ballots in the last election. But not a peep about that. The goal here is clear, even if you can perform some mental gymnastics to say the changes aren't that bad. The GOAL itself is tainted, and therefore so are the actions.
