[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least 80% of Americans want voter ID.

There is no good excuse - none - for Democrats to vote against this.

I'd support it assuming that we also provide the funds and make it easy for Americans to get a voter ID. Oh wait, it's expensive and time consuming and made deliberately difficult, especially in red states (https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/challenge-obtaining-voter-identification).

"Many ID-issuing offices maintain limited business hours. For example, the office in Sauk City, Wisconsin is open only on the fifth Wednesday of any month. But only four months in 2012 — February, May, August, and October — have five Wednesdays. In other states — Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, and Texas — many part-time ID-issuing offices are in the rural regions with the highest concentrations of people of color and people in poverty."

If it was as easy as showing up with your social security card or birth certificate and getting it immediately processed, then I'd be all for it but these red states abuse it to deliberately disenfranchise people, especially POCs.[/quote]

Nonsense.

People can get ID's.  To say they can't is YOU being the racist. [/quote]
