It is the only way that you can assure at least some integrity in elections. Since there is no legitimate argument against making people show ID, the dems claim that making people show ID will disenfranchise people. It is one of the most absurd things I have ever heard. But even more shocking is that some gullible people actually believe it.

In this country you need to show ID for practically everything. To argue that you shouldn't have to show ID to vote is beyond ludicrous. In California, there is a list of voters posted on the wall outside of every precinct. It gives every voter's name and address for that precinct. So you can look at the list and choose a name and walk into the polling place and vote using that name. If you wanted to, you could do this at 30 different polling places. You can literally vote as many times as you want and there is virtually no way to get caught. How many people do this? I have no idea, but to say that nobody is doing it is absurd. In any competition, people will try to cheat. Even when there are safeguards in place, there are some people that will still cheat. So when there are no safeguards in place, there will obviously be plenty of cheating.

To say that we should not take steps to ensure the integrity of elections is crazy. The dem leaders know that there is plenty of cheating. The Project Veritas sting operation proved that people high up in the democratic party are in on the cheating. The only reason that dems don't want voter ID laws put in place is because they know it will make it harder for them to cheat.

Agree 100%
