Says only 1% of 20000 dont have the proper id... and those who didnt have id were unlikley to vote anyway
Having ID, and being forced to show it, are two very different things. I have a photo ID, but yet, not one person has stated why I should be forced to show it; thus, denying me my 4th amendment right.

Supreme court upholding voter ID laws in Indiana saying In its opinion, the Supreme Court stated that the “risk of voter fraud is real.” It further stated, “While the most effective method of preventing election fraud may well be debatable, the propriety of doing so is perfectly clear.”
If they are going to uphold voter fraud is real and numerous; then its fair to state the oil and coal industry have *NO* argument when it comes to the Theory of Climate Change (the evidence for global warming far outstrips that of 'massive voter fraud'). Yes, voter fraud is real, but at a super, tiny fraction of the rate those supporting such laws state. As has been stated before, its a huge amount of laws for no benefit to hinder a behavior that already isn't bigger than a tiny problem.

6 of the 30 states with ID law... Proposed by DEMOCRATS (Hmmm Interesting there,,, why would a Democrat propose and pass a law that would disenfranchise their parties voters?)
