If you go into Lowes, they'll ask for your birthday if you buy spray paint. Idaho does have a voter ID law. We have to show a DL or state ID card to vote.

I just looked at the Virginia voting web site. You don't even have to have a current driver's license to vote. If expired for less than a year, you are good to go.
No rules for proxy voting for Dead Uncle Fred, though.

Good intent, bad solution. I'm against giving more state and local power to the Federal government though any kind of national registry. We have plenty of ID, no need for more at the Federal level.
The problem isn't ID documents but local enforcement, and voting is by local precincts, run by county administration in the state I know best. 'Course, we could do away with state and local government and let our efficient bureaucrats in D.C., who have our local interests at heart, run everything.
If we dont get a handle on this, illegal voters, along with dimocraps, will give eventually give the federal govt all the control it needs to take our constitution away anyway.

Copy & Paste from the interweb for things requiring ad ID.......
1. Boarding an airplane 2. Writing a check 3. Cashing a check 4. Using a credit card 5. Driving a motor vehicle 6. Applying for a business license 7. Applying for permission to hold a protest or rally 8. Securing employment 9. Purchasing a house or real estate 10. Renting a domicile 11. Renting a motor vehicle 12. Purchasing a firearm (Includes BB guns) 13. Applying for a hunting license (waived for 16 and 17 year olds when their legal guardian provides a photo ID) 14. Applying for a fishing license (waived for 16 and 17 year olds when their legal guardian provides a photo ID) 15. Purchasing alcoholic beverages 16. Purchasing tobacco or products that contain nicotine 17. Purchasing a motor vehicle 18. Initial registration of a motor vehicle 19. Applying for a building permit 20. Receiving prescription medicine 21. Purchasing OTC medicine that contains pseudoephedrine 22. Serving on jury duty 23. Getting a bank account 24. Cash transactions of $5000.00 or greater 25. Sales tax exemption for people aged 80 and above
Of the above, numbers 2, 3 and 4 are not state law but at a business owners discretion. By law, they can demand it. Numbers 15, 16 and 25 are usually applied using common sense, as in if you appear to be too young the business can demand proof and refuse to engage in the activity if one cannot provide proof of the required age law.
All of the above are things that occur on a daily basis but not necessarily to everybody. Despite the above common actions that people engage in, some seem to think that asking for a photo ID for voting purposes is somehow a violation of civil liberties or an attempt to prevent people from voting. The really interesting part is that it is usually liberals claiming that it is conservatives attempting to prevent people from voting when a photo ID law would apply equally to both liberals and conservatives. Heck, they would apply equally regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, weight, sexual orientation, income, health, disability, race, wealth, intelligence, marital status, attractiveness, employment status and everything else. Is there something wrong with preventing the dead, the illegal aliens, the young (under the age of suffrage) and other non-qualified people from voting just as we prevent them from engaging in the activities listed above?

The first thing we need to do is get rid of Hillary's Motor Voter crap. That has been used to allow illegals to vote. Stop all absentee voting period. If you can't show up to vote then forget it. Do not certify any election until the military votes are in and certified. Those should be considered in another category other than absentee. We can go a long way to stopping voter fraud by making it a stiff penalty for any entity caught allowing fraudulent voting. When it comes right down to it, it's up to local elected and appointed officials to make sure the people voting are legal. Last thing is do not validate any states election totals if the state will not comply with All voting regulations.
Truth tell we really need a poll tax worse now than ever. If you can't afford to pay a small tax to validate your status then you shouldn't be allowed to decide the fate of the country. If you can afford a cell fone you darned sure can afford a poll tax.

Yes, California went way past the National law that only required states to offer voter registration at all DMVs. They (CA) took it into the next galaxy, by automatically registering people who were getting driver's licenses to vote, unless the applicants opted out. Try explaining "opting out" of voter registration to someone who does not even speak English and is not even legally in this country.

Might help prevent Dead Uncle Fred from voting, but I am not an expert on voter fraud. In Louisiana, we have a long history of dead dimicrats voting early and often. I'm all for mandatory voter ID. There's nothing wrong with forcing a person looking to vote to prove they are actually who they say they are, and are eligible to vote.

essentially the opponents of this are saying that black people are incapable of getting a voter ID card. inherent racism on their part. if voting is important to someone, they'll get a card.

Mutha f u c k ing groids can probably get a free ID card anyways, if not let's give the poor downtrodden fuggers one for free. Make it the law of the land to have an ID to vote. Then they ain't got no lame excuse. Plenty of social workers can pick em and give em a ride also if that excuse comes up.
The democrats got every lame excuse known to man for all this shyt....
Law of the land, Register in person with ID and have ID on hand or you don't vote.
Just like white people that pay taxes have too.

There you go, you are dead on. Funny how so many claim they don't trust government, don't like big government, but want the Central Government to "fix" something that may or may not be broke. Leave up to the states, it's their turf.

I don't think people should be allowed to vote unless they have smelled napalm in the morning.

DD, as you are aware, I have never smelled napalm in the morning................ could there be an allowance for those that have smelled burning cordite, or maybe launched 510grn bullets from a lever gun!?!?!?
