[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree, I have no problem at all with voter ID -

IF it's free, 
IF the DMV's are fixed, 
IF you can walk in and get your ID the same day, 
IF people don't have to take time off from work to get it, 
IF people don't have to drive 40 miles to the nearest station to get it,
IF your identity can be established in a way that isn't overly restrictive, with commonly available documents,
IF the state offers free and expedient assistance to people who may have special circumstances, like they lost their birth certificate in a fire

I would be fine with ID if things like that can be met.[/quote]

There are no states that do not offer free voter ID cards.  Most offer mobile stations to issue IDs.  Va DMVs offer Sat hours.  This is the voter ID registration Virginia used prior.  The voter registration form is more complicated.  They offer free assistance if you need it.  If all else fails, vote by mail.  For goodness sake, look into what it takes before going into hysterics people.  It really isn't the burden people are making it out to be.

Read the whole thread. There are many, many people who voted for decades for whom these new restrictions are a significant burden.[/quote]
