Probably because you were acting like a dick about it.
All I did was try to hand it to her
Doubtful since you clearly had an agenda.

There are 1,500+ Amish living in Maryland. By comparison, Garett Park (where Floreen used to be mayor) has a population of about 1,000.
That's just one group who may not have IDs. Others are those who are homeless, elderly, or otherwise don't have the money or ability to easily request or renew their ID. Why require it and disenfranchise voters? There have been no reports of widespread voter fraud whatsoever.
My comment has to do with the availability of identification card. I think this is something the state can do something about and give those out for free. The state gives out so much money for so many other things the least they can do is be able to provide identification cards for those who can’t afford it? Even with the person’s basic name photo birthday ( for those who are homeless ). Does anybody know why this can’t be an option ?
ID cards in MD are $1 for people who are homeless. It's more the documentation requirements that are a hindrance. Those are required by the federal Real ID act -- MD can't do anything about those really.

Stop trying to make voter fraud a thing. It's not.
Great, so you've manage to get 1-2 extra votes in for a lot of effort. Wouldn't it be easier just to campaign to a legit voter and get them to vote your way, or even just pay them off?

Do you know their DOB and party affiliation too? You do have to answer those questions.
They can challenge you and make you vote provisional. You still get your vote recorded but it goes through an extra verification process.
Because you weren’t challenged. If you were challenged, they’d ask for ID. If you could provide it, they’d let you vote regularly. If not, you would get a provisional. Some voter authority cards say “show ID” and for those people, they are required to show ID.
I don’t get why you care so much? They are told to tell people ID isn’t necessary. Rifling through your stuff may take too long and hold up a line.
Or maybe she was just a little awkward in the way she did it. It’s hard to get sufficient numbers of election judges with early voting. So many are first tiimers.
