People in this thread actually believe the voter id work is being done to prevent fraud. It isn't. It is done to lower voting by the other side.
Well why are people on the other side too stupid/lazy to acquire an ID?

For these two examples, they were able to get an ID at one time in their lives. Now, not so much. Lib media salivates:
Case #1. Former CA Woman driving on TX roads without a license. Texas woman threatened with jail after applying for voter ID
quote:
She has houses in both California and Texas and goes back and forth between the two, but decided several years ago to switch her voting residency to Texas.
quote:
It is illegal to drive in Texas on another state’s driver’s license 90 days after moving into the state.
quote:
“It was like a Nazi interrogation about how I can't be driving with a California ID,” Messinger said. “I was completely intimidated and freaked out.”
Case #2. 'Born and raised' Texans forced to prove identities under new voter ID law
quote:
He presented them with his old personal ID card – issued by the DPS itself and with his photo on it – but because it is more than 60 days expired (it ran out in 2000) they didn’t accept it. Next he showed them an electricity bill, and after that a cable TV bill, but on each occasion they said it didn’t cut muster and turned him away.
Each trip to the DPS office involved taking three buses, a journey that can stretch to a couple of hours. Then he had to stand in line, waiting for up to a further three hours to be seen, before finally making another two-hour schlep home.
quote:
So what passes as a reckless binge for Eric Kennie – a splurge on about $10-worth of fried chicken – is less than half of what he spent getting himself a copy of his birth certificate.
The outcome was perhaps predictable by now: the birth certificate wasn’t up to scratch either. When he took it to the DPS (another three buses there, three buses back, another two hours waiting in line) they told him that the name on the birth certificate didn’t match the name on his voter registration card. The birth certificate has him down as Eric Caruthers – his mother’s maiden name – even though his parents were married at the time he was born.
