I wouldn't read too much into it.

States with voter ID laws are typically R leaning states so it's not surprising the R candidate wins them.

would make sense, no?

R states would vote for voter ID laws and Dem states would vote against it

I just don't understand how it can be legal to vote without something to id who you are...I just can't wrap my mind around that.

Nevada was definitely some bullshite - if there's one state that was stolen from Trumpy it was definitely Nevada

A) very strong Dem machine
B) 80% of the Dem vote located in one county
C) homogenous voting group (young hispanics) to leverage and pile up the votes

What do they mean Louisiana is "photo i.d. requested?" I left my DL at home once and could not vote; I had to go home to get identification.

The issue with voter ID is it has to be free, which means tax payers have to buy everyone an ID.

If it isn't free, you are making it more difficult to vote for poor people, which is shitty. There should be as few deterrents to voting as possible. I also believe election day should be a national holiday. I would gladly give up Labor day or MLK day in exchange for election day.

When I turned 18, I went to the polls the following month to vote in local elections (2009). I was told I couldn't because I didn't register properly. Being told you can't vote is a pretty shitty feeling.

My cousin wanted to vote for Trump in Houston. He was turned away because he didn't have proper ID on him at the time.

Why are we making it harder for people to vote? Voting should be easy. Nothing about voting should discourage people from doing it.

Thanks been looking for something like this.

So in Cali for example, you can walk up and cast a vote without anything?

Hillary wins states that are historically Democratic and reject attempts to pass voter ID laws. Shocking

I mean what do you expect? Democratic states aren't going to have voter ID laws because the population overwhelmingly rejects voter ID laws. They also vote overwhelmingly Democratic. Those two things are inseparable.
