Please check out the manner in which the Hawaii caucasus were run this year. My sister lives on the Big Island. She said that at the Democratic caucasus they didn’t ask for ID’s, or check registration. Anyone could walk in and vote just by raising their hand. I’m from California and find this very unorthodox.

Surely almost everyone has a picture ID so they can buy liquor and cigarettes. It is still more common for those people who liberals call disinfranchised to be smokers and drinkers than not. No one is going to have a problem with photo ID. They already have them.

You know–the only folks who scream about voter ID are the ones with a hidden agenda. It goes without saying that anyone with a shred of common sense knows this is the solution. But the left-wingnuts continue to use this as a crippling device to further keep their selected voter blocs under their thumb and deny people the integrity of the right to vote. THE RIGHT TO VOTE IS A PRIVILEGE GUARANTEED BY THE CONSTITUTION. VOTER FRAUD IS NOT.

It could help but to really tackle the problem is must be a ID that proves they are real Americans. Anything else is a bandaid.

If voting is important to the voter, they will support a legitimate process. It’s not much to ask a person to confirm who they are. Presumeably, these same individuals do live and breathe. If so, either they or their caretakers certainly take the time to wait in various government offices, fill out piles of forms, either for healthcare needs, social security, insurance applications, even grocery store discount cards. Why would we expect any less effort to ensure the integrity of something as important as our voting process?

If many other democratic countries can require its citizens to produce a photo-ID or a govt. issued ID before you vote, I don’t understand why the US cannot do so. Only the ones that favour voter registration fraud will object to the idea of producing a photo-ID.

If you are not a proven citizen of the United States of America you should have no right to vote and however one goes about proving that they are a LEGAL CITIZEN with the proper documents is what is needed. We have been too lax for too long and we have too many illegals here and enough is enough.

I am a Naturalized Citizen of the United States, I did it legally and I don’t understand why the rest can’t. I was employed legally, paid my taxes legally and did everything just as if I was born here.

We need to quit babysitting the liberal agenda and do what is right for the American people!

I don’t get it… who doesn’t have a photo ID? About the only group of people I can even think of would be the perennial homeless.

Please distinguish between REGISTRATION fraud and VOTE fraud. Obviously none of these made up voters will actually vote. On the other hand, a legitimate resident without a photo ID who shows up at the polls is a disenfranchised voter.

If you don’t have enough integrity to be able to produce a photo ID when you register to vote, then you don’t have enough integrity to be voting for the President of this country.
