Voter fraud is virtually non-existent.
The voter ID thing is just a tactic to keep African Americans from voting.
Correct.
Why and in what way does this prevent only African Americans from voting?
Thats really not the issue.
This issue is there is no evidence to support voter ID laws, as voter fraud is indeed virtually non-existent.
Yes, one has the right to vote using a provisional ballot, but that process is cumbersome, it is unknown to most voters, and the likelihood election workers will have a comprehensive knowledge of the law is problematic.
The conflict is over where to strike the balance between voter responsibility and the responsibility of every state to ensure every citizen is able to vote.
Its incumbent upon states to remove voting hurtles, not erect new ones.
