DEMs would oppose anything that promotes basic fairness in elections = or that prevents illegal voting.

Why does it have to be purple? Why can't it be pink?
Why does it have to pink? Why not black? You got something against black?
etc, etc, etc

This is racist. Everybody knows it brings us back to a time when the hands of minorities hands were stained purple from working in the fields all day picking grapes.

"Republicans want to give you the finger".

As opposed to ID's ? That's not a bad idea; It would eliminate a primary concern of Dems, the concern that many in their base do not have access to the required docs to vote. Most everyone has a finger.
Wouldn't help the other concerns though, such as Republican governors and legislatures making it harder to vote by limiting poll hours, locations, etc.

The republicans vote in the same lines, and in the same hours. I'm not sure if I buy that.

Sounds reasonable. But it would still allow some degree of fraud.
You wouldn't be able to vote and then go impersonate a dead person or a person you know can't make it to the polls. But you could still cross the state line from Illinois/Kansas/R-Kansas into Missouri in order to influence the outcome in a purple state.

Sure, but still thats much more expensive than whats in place now.

We should do this, along with voter ID laws, and also get rid of early voting unless deployed for service with the US military. Make Election day for National elections a holiday. Everyone gets the day off. Everyone has all day to vote.

Voting in rural areas is a breeze, I'm sure. Election Day in urban/heavily populated areas is a complete cluster though. It is all by design, and at least so far the Dems have been pretty good at getting voter suppression laws overturned.

Which party is in charge of those areas? I'll hang up and listen.

Are you serious? The counties and municipalities have to follow the laws passed in the state house. Wasn't it Ohio that threatened to cut off Cleveland's funding if they didn't comply with the new voter suppression measures? That was a good one.

If you're going to respond to me, how about making it worth my time. Try harder.

I live in the biggest city in the US. Well aware. You'll note that NYC is not ruled by the Republicans though. To call them Democrats is putting it very mildly.
