Most Americans Favor Showing Photo ID To Vote

[Independent thinker]

It is easier to fake an ID than a live signature

I see what you're saying now. You're saying that we should check everyone registering for fake ID's.

I favor both.

Show your damned ID, and then be sure the poll worker verifies your signature.

Whoa! Hold on there folks. Most Americans favor showing photo ID to vote. Most Republicans favor it. Most Democrats favor it. Even most minorities favor it. So, democrats, what's the deal?

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) may believe voter ID laws are racist — but most Americans do not agree with him, CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten showed on Tuesday.

Fools.

A photo ID must be "validated" and that's the rub, God you people, you really are hopeless.

Sorry Mr Blackman, that doesn't really look you, sorry I just can't accept that.

OK who's next?

We've had to show photo ID to vote in Texas for a few decades now. Our DMV is trying to require proof of citizenship, but we just renew online.

Please refer to post #1. The very large portion of voters, including democrats and minorities, favor showing photo ID while voting.

Based on what factual predicate?

If you are against Voter ID, you are against Voting Rights

Indeed. When I vote here I bring my Texas ID but I also bring my passport. I paid for the dang thing might as well use it.

Lefties insist people show ID to prove they are NOT ICE.

LEFTIES INSISTED ON “VACCINE” passports.

GFY

Of course the vast majority of Americans believe in showing ID to vote because it's the rational way to go about the very serious business of electing officials.
Once again, like the trans issue, the illegal aliens issue, the boys playing girls' sports issue and now the voter ID issue, the Democrats are always on the wrong side of the issue. Most Americans disagree with them on most issues. Which raises the question ... how in the hell do they ever get elected to office?
Rational people don't vote for people who back these policies.

Most Americans are very happy with being cucks and vassals.

I have one. Do they ask for it? No. When I went to the DMV to renew my license last time, a lady asked me if I'd brought a passport or my birth certificate. I said no. She said go up to the next table and make an appointment to come in with your credentials. I left. At home I renewed it online. Sadly, I didn't get a new picture. In my DL picture from 12 years ago, I was pushing 300 lbs. I've lost 80 lbs. and really don't even look like that picture anymore. In my passport photo, I have a huge beard. I keep it short now, and don't look like that photo either.
Doxx me, I don't care. I live alone, and can protect myself from anything.

I think it is beyond debate that requiring voter ID helps prevent fraud and is reasonable.

Well, shit! Let's just throw out all the rules then!

Of course. It's rational.
So, needless to say, the Democrats are against it.

What voter ID does prevent

Voter ID laws are designed to stop in-person voter impersonation — someone showing up at a polling place and pretending to be someone else.

That kind of fraud

• Is theoretically possible
• Is easy to understand (which is why it comes up a lot in debates)
• Has been found to be very rare in investigations across multiple states and years

So voter ID can help prevent that scenario — but there isn’t much of it to prevent in the first place.

*Congrats on the weight drop.
*Yes I went through that. I did not want to get hassled at the airport. Then the irony of having all my flights in the last several years be international, needing the passport anyway.
*I like my old picture. I still had hair.

How common is this?

Estimates vary, but studies consistently find millions of voting-age Americans lack current, qualifying photo ID, with higher rates among:

• Elderly voters
• Low-income individuals
• Minority communities
• People with disabilities

That’s why voter ID debates focus less on fraud and more on access.

The key takeaway

Most Americans who lack ID aren’t “choosing” not to have one in a political sense.


They’re responding to costs, inconvenience, paperwork problems, or life constraints that are easy to overlook if you’ve always had stable documents and transportation.

In regard to the SAVE Act... I want to look into that bill more closely. My only concern is that it could potentially lay out the pathway for mandatory digital ID.

Unpopular opinion, but I've been saying for a while now that the illegal immigration problem is being used as a Trojan Horse for a number of authoritarian agendas that they wouldn't otherwise have an excuse for. So all I'm saying is that people should be vigilant and keep an eye on certain things being added to the bill, before it passes in the Senate.

Based on what factual predicate?

Polls show a very huge percentage of Americans, including, democrats, Hispanics, and blacks favoring showing photo ID while voting. As Harry Enten said, this issue does not divide Americans. It only divides the idiots who are in the 20%.
