Google a map in the south of the DMV locations and superimpose the map with where the communities are majority AA. You will see the problem.

If you are making a statement that "only the black people somehow can't make it to the DMV" then you have clearly never experienced the problem. Glad you are enjoying your privilege.


So now it's only about the black people living in the South who can't make it to the DMV, but can somehow find a way to make it everywhere else they need to go to. But the poor white people have no problem making it to the DMV? This is almost as ridiculous as the "can't find my birth certificate" excuse. lol


Millions and millions of people in this country, for multiple reasons, do not have access to basic services.
Numerous people never had birth certificates, and therefore cannot “find” them because there are no birth certificates to find.
Literally no one in this long and tedious thread has made statements about what “poor white people” have “no problem” doing — although it has been pointed out numerous times that laws have been framed to disproportionately impact Blacks and other people of color.

Cry me a river. How can take they make it to the polling location every other year, but can't seem to make it to the DMV in the last 10 years ( or however long a state ID is valid for)?


See my earlier post about my ill father, the WWII Marine.

Why are you determined to be so ignorant?


Because they are using bad faith arguments to defend the indefensible. They want to live in a fascist state that pays lip service to people who have served but ultimately only serves the rich.

*fake ID?

And how would they even know which name to use? This is a very complicated crime that has a limited impact.

You missed the point.

People are registered to vote in a jurisdiction. To register, you would need to show that you live there (utility bills, tax returns, etc) and to prove that you are a citizen. The passport takes care of that and it is a valid photo ID at the polling place, as shown in the extensive list above of states that recognize the passport as a valid voter ID.



If you think that a person would break the law and use a fake name to vote, why wouldn’t they just get a fake if? How does this even prevent the fraud you claim can transpire?

I just went to the dentist. They know me by name, sight, and even by my voice. No ID needed. I don’t drink, smoke or own a gun — that cuts your list down considerably. I’ve had one of my bank accounts since I was six, and even then I realized that many people could not afford to have bank accounts.

TLDR: Your lengthy list really doesn’t support your conclusion. If you think it does, you either need to work on your critical thinking skills, or you are for voter disenfranchisement. There is no other plausible reason. See how that works?


I think some of you simply want to be outraged about SOMETHING.



What is the definition of elector and what are the documents allowable in subsection C. Without defined terms you cant state that this makes any point. Electors seem to be defined from the voter rolls but its unclear as I searched in the law and it wasnt defined. It also requires the "elector" to list the registered address. Registered address for what? How do you update that? If it doesnt match the registered address, again see previous question, then its considered provisional. Provisional can only be counted if the board is able to confirm the information provided.

As far as 2000 electors, if its 2000 electors defined by the voter rolls then those were purged. https://www.gpb.org/news/2019/10/31/georgia-releases-list-of-313000-voter-registrations-be-removed-in-december. How do you lose your right to be considered an elector and counted in a precinct just because you didnt vote.
"Georgians that are facing cancellation were moved to inactive status if they had “no contact” with elections officials after three years. That means they did not vote in elections, update their registrations or have any contact with elections officials, then failed to respond to a letter sent by elections officials.

A law passed this year lengthens the time period to be declared inactive to five years."

Didn't realize there was an expiration date on the right to vote?

My DH has updated his address with the TSP 10x and we still get forwarded mail. Has updated DOD HR, has called and it doesnt matter.

It doesn't but if you don't solve the problem of making ID's accessible for all who are entitled to them, then it is a form of voter suppression.

I agree it is a form of voter suppression if you don't solve the problem of making ID's accessible for all who are entitled to them.

This whole thread started advocating that the federal government should solve this problem.

There is literally no widespread voter fraud and thus no problem to fix. The only reason these bills are happening is so the GOP can suppress votes and try to remain in power.

Because they are utterly stupid and irrelevant “points” which have nothing to do with present day? Just a thought.


Show, dear, don’t tell. Why has this country allowed voting without an ID for centuries if it’s so important?


With upward of 22 million illegal aliens present, it is important to know who actually has the right to vote. ID is essential.
You are welcome.


There have always been non citizens present in the country. Why do you need ids now? Isn’t this the purpose of voter registration?
