It's an obvious attempt to disenfranchise.
Funny , righties are against gun registration because the big bad gov will take their guns away . They believe that but don't think state issued voter ID is an attempt to stop legit voters .
Why are these othe IDS accepted by the DMV to get a fancy voter ID but NOT be good enough to use at the poll station?
" They believe that but don't think state issued voter ID is an attempt to stop legit voters."
And right on cue, a Liberal dunce shows up to spew the usual talking points.
And now for reality:
“The findings of this analysis suggest that
voter identification requirements, such as requiring non-photo and photo identification, have virtually no suppressive effect on reported voter turnout.
Controlling for factors that influence voter turn¬out, states with stricter voter identification laws largely
do not have the claimed negative impact on voter turnout when compared to states with more lenient voter identification laws.
Based on the Eagleton Institute's findings, some members of the media have claimed that voter identification law suppress voter turnout, especially among minorities.[80] Their
conclusion is unfounded. When statistically significant and negative relationships are found in our analysis, the effects are so small that the findings offer little policy significance.
More important,
minority respondents in states that required photo identification are just as likely to report voting as are minority respondents from states that only required voters to say their name.”

In summary,
a. photo ID requirements prevent voter fraud to a greater degree than without said requirements.
b. any thinking individual realizes the basis for denial of the above: to allow for fraud.
