You might read the court opinions that have already come down overturning these laws as discriminatory, rather than ignoring that exists.

i'd like to see it go thru the courts, so i can get the legal reason as to why, in voting alone, requirement of id is a form of discrimination...but not for getting a job, getting utilities turned on, and myriad other acts in our daily lives.
LOL - complete and obvious ignorance of the subject matter, such as the court case results already posted in this thread, doesn't help your cause.

As they say, ignorance is bliss. Nobody is saying the requirement of an ID is discriminatory. The courts are saying narrowing the requirement to only certain types of ID, less than the various types of ID that are acceptable now, is discriminatory.
