Let me make it clear for you: No One in this thread is calling for a separate ID just to vote. Any old one will do.please, let me make it crystal clear for you ... the Thread Title IS calling for separate IDs just to vote and voter registration cards are already issued in every state.
my response was directed to your illogical assumption quoted in the post.
Maybe you weren't taught the difference between "voter," and "voting."
A Voter is a person; when that person marks a ballot in an election he/she is voting.
The thread is about voters having IDs.
The thread is not about requiring every person to have a separate ID for voting.
In case you have not been paying attention there are constant protests from the Democrats in particular and liberal left in general against requiring a voter to have ANY ID.
As has been noted before, in some states and situations a birth cert. and SS card are sufficient.
Why should a person not be required to prove who they are when they vote?
jw
your point exactly ????????
voters don't have to "obtain" any ID, they get one when they register, no registry, no vote.
voters have always had an ID.
what do the Democrat protests have to do with the Fraud?
perhaps you missed my previous statement about absentee ballots being addressed "Resident" ... which, in case you haven't learned yet, means ANYONE can complete it and submit it. with or without any ID.
perhaps IF you had read the story (you know, the one the OP linked), or the excerpts embedded, you would realize this is about officials tampering with absentee ballots, which btw, has NOTHING to do with voter IDs other than the state of GA claims this indictment shows a need for specific voter IDs ... with which i happen to disagree.
“What I have seen in my state, in my region, is the the most aggressive practitioners of voter-fraud are local machines who are tied lock, stock and barrel to the special interests in their communities — the landfills, the casino operators — and they’re cooking the [ballot] boxes on election day, they’re manufacturing absentee ballots, they’re voting [in the names of] people named Donald Duck, because they want to control politics and thwart progress,”Read more: dailycaller.com...
perhaps you missed this in the opening post ...
The suspects are accused of illegally helping people vote by absentee ballot. --- snip --- The defendants include some workers in the voter registrar's office and some school board members. --- snup --- The 12 people charged are aligned with the Democratic Party.{each snip from one of the OPs sources in opening post}
you said
The thread is about voters having IDs.and i would disagree entirely.
this whole story inclusive of the OPs statements are about voter FRAUD committed by those deemed "officials".
several of whom happen to be Democrats.
(no wonder they are protesting voter ID)
now, my response to another posting about when IDs are required to be used such as Medicare, SS, Welfare, Bank, blah, blah, blah was answering a direct question.
Is this a problem for you?
lots of ppl function just fine without a state ID of any kind.
besides, if you are legally registered to vote, you already have a voter ID.
and for the record, in my state, Donald Duck has a BIG family.
i never said the thread was about requiring a voter ID because legal voters already have one or did you miss that part too?
