Hey Truthdoesn'tmatter, we're still waiting for you to prove your false claims (lies) in this thread.
Why can't you prove that this was politically motivated?
Why can't you prove that the DMV's were in Democrat districts?
Prove your claims.

There is ample evidence you just pretend it doesnt exist.
If these laws were indeed helping secure the voting system then why are they only supported by the party that has a decades long history of working to keep legal American voters from voting to win elections?

THE COST OF THE VOTE: POLL TAXES,
VOTER IDENTIFICATION LAWS, AND THE PRICE OF
DEMOCRACY
ATIBA R. ELLIS
The Eagleton Institute research relied on data from 2004, before some of the toughest ID laws were passed. It shows that as requirements stiffen from stating a name to signing it to presenting documentation turnout drops slightly. The researchers considered other factors, including contested elections, registration requirements, race, ethnicity, age, education and income. They used a 2004 Census Bureau survey to determine racial and ethnic breakdowns.
"It validates some of the things that have been said all along about the problems of voter ID," said Kimball Brace of Election Data Services. Taken together with the earlier research by Tova Wang and Job Serebrov that found little evidence of voter fraud at polling places, it shows voter ID laws can have more of a negative than a positive impact, Brace said.
The commission's chairwoman, Donetta Davidson, called the study "premature." More work needs to be done, she said. "You can't make determinations based on one year," she said. "We have new states that have ID requirements now that weren't in that review."
In 2005, Indiana enacted the nation's stiffest photo ID law. Yet turnout increased 2% in November compared with 2002, the previous non-presidential federal election year.
In local races before the November elections, "we could not find one instance where a legitimate voter could not vote," said Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita, a Republican.

Voter identification requirements designed to combat fraud can reduce turnout, particularly among minorities, a new study shows.

Under federal law, first-time voters must verify their identity. Nearly half the states go further, requiring some identification from all voters — ranging from a signature to a government-issued photo ID, which is required only in Indiana.
Wisconsin DMV Tells Boy His Bank Account Doesn
A video has surfaced of a boy trying to get one of the new Wisconsin Voter IDs that were ushered in by the signing of new a voting law in the state. Shot by the boy's mother with the clear intention of indicting the process, the video shows the pair going from station to station at the DMV, asking all of the right questions as to why there are so many hurdles to acquiring this constitutionally guaranteed ID card.
It is a shame the video is not edited more briskly -- at almost ten minutes in length its viral spread will certainly be thwarted -- but it nonetheless lends itself to breath-holding drama because of this fact.
The first station clerk determines that the boy's bank account does not display enough "activity" to constitute a proof of address form. This is not only absurd ("does he use it?") but a clear privacy infringement as is the follow up question of whether or not the account is of the "checking" or "savings" variety. "Oh, it's just a savings," the clerk remarks. The mother throws a subtle jab, countering that "he's unemployed."
