Democrats!  🤦‍♂️

The Dems CANNOT allow this to pass because it would hard for them to win anything ever again!

It certainly brings into question such a strong opposition.

NO!! We cannot allow people to identify themselves when they vote! 

Of course the same person has to have a photo ID for almost anything in life.

Still no proof illegals affect outcomes. Dems voted against PHOTO ID, not voter ID. Voter ID has always been part of a remarkably accurate and transparent election process. Find the evidence otherwise. You can’t because there is none. Ergo, all efforts to “clean” the system are disguised attempts at vote suppression. They don’t care how, just reduce turnout.

Nonsense, it's not voter suppression.

Only white liberals believe that the poor and downtrodden don't have the ability to get an ID.

Maybe a newsflash to some, but the Constitution doesn’t guarantee the right to vote for President. In fact, if a State decided they didn’t want to vote for the Office of the President position, SCOTUS would have to turn itself into pretzels to make them.

The Constitution and other Amendments and rulings only guarantee that if one person in the state is allowed, all must be equally allowed within rules set by the State.

As a libertarian, I’m not against photo ID for voting. I think it’s pretty common sense. But, if required, the burden should be on the State to provide a uniform, acceptable form of ID. The burden shouldn’t be on the individual.

Texas offers a free EIC card for voting. They even have mobile units for folks that might have transportation issues. I don’t know about all the other States.

Of course, as I mentioned to @baddog, if the voting machines/tabulators/officials have integrity issues, photo ID’s are kind of a moot point.

I work at a bank, possibly protecting YOUR money if you use a bank. 

To open an account we require two forms of ID, which 1st form is typically a DL or State ID.  

How would you like of the bank gave away your money because someone stole your wallet, grabbed your Social security card, came to the bank pretending to be you and the bank gave him 10 grand out of your account? I bet you and every other Dem would support photo ID when it comes to taking money from your account. 

Nothing is fraud proof, including photo id, but it helps.....just like the wall helps but people, with time, can figure out a way around it. 

The newest fraud is stealing bank statements and ordering a fake DL with your info and their picture....then walking into a bank you bank out in a different town, they claim to be traveling and get a couple thousand to stay under radar.....They can do that at a few different banks before they are caught.  It is difficult to claim someone is not who they claim to be,,,,,,because if you are wrong, it's a bad look.....

This will pass the senate
