A bigger concern should be why the Repubs. seem to constantly put roadblocks up to having people vote. - That is sad.

I know you're smarter than that, Paul. There were more convictions for voter fraud stemming from the 2008 elections than ever before in history. To say there is almost "zero voter fraud" is an outright lie.
And I guess having to show an ID to vote should be a big concern. Well, a big concern to those who aren't eligible to vote. I have to show an ID to cash a check. People have to show ID's to open bank accounts or credit cards, and even to apply for food stamps or other assistance. How come it's such a big deal to show you are who you are when voting but not for anything else? Everyone over the age of 18 should have an ID anyways. Why is it such a problem to bring it with you to vote unless you aren't who you claim to be?
I'm all for providing transportation to and from the polls, provided it's not paid for by tax dollars or it's made available to everyone and not just inner city residents. There are plenty of people in the suburbs who have limited access to transportation or who aren't on bus lines, etc...
