why are democrats opposed to having proof of identity when voting ?

[Concerned American]

The core argument from Democrats is that Voter ID hurts Blacks the most; presumably because Blacks have the most difficult time obtaining a state-issued ID. This would mean that Blacks are cut off from many services, resources, and privileges in their daily lives that require Voter ID.

I cannot believe Blacks put up with Democrats using them as pawns to fight against Voter ID. How insulting.

Can't get an EBT card no matter what color you are if you don't have ID. You cannot drive a car, have a bank account, a library card, a credit card to Netflix and Chill.

NUFFIN!

B******* you can prove your identity and needs with pay stubs bills etc etc. You have no ideal you're talking about as always.

HEY FRANK! Still waiting for your reply on voter suppression.

Pretty odd that you KNOW the GOP are making it so hard for blacks to vote yet you can't produce a single one of them!

Kinda like all the people we never met who all changed their vote from Hillary to Trump just because of a couple of FB ads!

And you spent 45 million dollars looking for them!

Obtaining an ID can be costly and requires an individual’s birth certificate, which may be burdensome. Proponents advocate for the law under the guise of preventing voter fraud and ensuring that only voter-eligible citizens partake in elections; however, individuals who lack government-issued identification are more likely to be younger, less educated, and impoverished, and—most notably—nonwhite. An example of the inherent discrimination of voter ID laws can be found in the implementation of Georgia’s “exact match” system. This program requires an individual’s voting status to be suspended if the name on their driver’s license or Social Security records does not exactly match the name they inputted on their voter registration form. Of the 51,000 individuals that this law affected in 2018, 80 percent of them were African American. There is evidence that the “exact match” law played a role in the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial election, as African American candidate Stacey Abrams lost by approximately 55,000 votes.

Says you. Link? Also, it is not too difficult for these same young, impoverished people to get drivers licenses, buy guns, get their utilities turned on, get loans at Payday Loans, work, etc, etc. Keep grasping and try again.

Why Minority Voters Have a Lower Voter Turnout: An Analysis of Current Restrictions

the dems say it is racist and unfair to require photo id to vote . the question i have for dems is why is it racist and voter suppression to require a valid id to vote ? please explain to us why .

Why are Tiny Minded "conservatives" so intent on lying about each and every little thing.
You want ID? Provide them
Not me go somewhere to get it.
You go door to door with your camera and laminator and make and present the card.
Voting doesn't require a license, it is a constitutional right.
If you're going to impinge on that right by requiring an equivalent of a poll tax for me to exercise my right
The it is on you to facilitate your demand.

You get your IDs and fail to deny a single voter their rights.

Apparently a win win but
You know damned well it's not about IDs.
It's about keeping the "wrong" people from voting.
You people have admitted it in the past and neither your intent nor methods have changed.

You have to be joking. Are minorities totally helpless?

They want to cheat.

You do know that 100% of the demonstrable fraud in the 2020 election was committed by Trumpinista?
Don't you?
Given your eternal vigilance on this issue it's hard to imagine it slipping by you?

More Dim bullshit.

"Helpless" is your whiny bitch.
Made up in your mind like the voter "fraud" you claim is pervasive but seems only among the GOP.
You want a voter ID, provide it.
Don't say this or that are acceptable IDs.
Provide the voter ID.
OR
STFU.

Go fuck yourself, moron. Who put you in charge of making the electon laws?

why are democrats opposed to having proof of identity when voting ?

This is a lie – they’re not.

This issue concerns Republicans enacting bad-faith measures intended to make it difficult – and in some cases impossible – to obtain the required identification to vote.

Identity and residence can be verified with a paycheck stub or utility bill, for example.

There is no fraud problem in elections, a total joke from your ridiculous propaganda machine. You prove who you are when you register. Duh.

At a minimum, voter ID closes the risk and vulnerabilities for fraud. There have been way too many fraudulent registration attempts. The Democrat push to rely on registration lists as the validation check for Mail In. Voter ID lends more credibility and less uncertainty and doubt.

They are free....if you can't get to a government office they will arrange to send someone to your home.....

You have two years between each election to get an ID to vote....you think blacks and hispanics are either too stupid or too lazy to get ID in the two years between elections...you are a racist asshole.

Wrong answer.
I don't get in my car, I don't make calls.
YOU COME TO ME. DOOR TO DOOR so you make sure you've hit every voter.

This unneeded crap is your desire.
IT is without merit and designed to do nothing but keep people from voting.
AS YOU PEOPLE HAVE ADMITTED
So, if you want it
YOU put it the time, money, and manpower to make ID happen.

paychecks and utility bills can be forged easier compared to state issues ID.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

Seems like a reasonable request

The reason some democrats oppose it is for the same reason that some republicans oppose early voting, voting by mail, and ballot drop boxes.... they think it gives their party an advantage.

US politics has become so partisan that both sides are looking at gaining an unfair advantage, or stopping the other side gaining an unfair advantage when it comes to voting.

Yes, and in a sense both parties are being reduced to something ridiculous in order to try and win over 50% of the ridiculous voters.

So they manipulate the voters rather than listening to the voters.
