Except the point that everyone else here is making is that voter ID laws, though masquerading as voter fraud prevention, discriminates and moreover is designed to discriminate. By accusing people of lacking intelligence who can't figure out the system (or for whom the system won't work) you're admitting this too. Yes, the dems don't like it in part because it disproportionately affects their voters - but that's the while point of why Republicans are trying to enact them in the first place (Pre 2012 Republicans anyway. Trump is using it as a scapegoat for when he loses).
That's he standard argument but the standard counter is that these same people need an ID to receive their government benefits.
Who exactly has no ID?
Homeless - very few vote. Illegal aliens - not supposed to vote.
Who else am I missing?
