Voter ID laws and Marriage

[Heywood]

Well, in a quick search, I couldn't find the actual numbers, but I've heard the number of voter fraud cases is extremely low and nowhere near enough of a problem to warrant the attention that the Republicans are giving it. Now, if this is true, and you take in the the fact that this is going to affect a lot of legitimate voters that would never cast their vote for the Republicans, it's not hard to put two and two together and discern their motivations. And considering we live in an era where politicians don't do any actual governing and simply start campaigning for the next election the moment they are elected, it's not much of a stretch to believe.

Voter ID laws don't seem to have any effect on turnout...so they don't really warrant the attention the democrats give them. Democrats also only seem to be concerned about voter ID laws in red states like Texas but ignore criticizing voter ID laws in blue states like Rhode Island.

People do need to have confidence in an election and voter ID laws are an effective and clean way of doing that. I would rather have to show my ID then dip my finger in ink that doesn't wash off for a couple of days.
