We had no problems with vaccines or election integrity until Trump. It’s all manufactured nonsense.

In general, if we have universal ID's, then it makes sense... There are a segment of the poor that just don't have ID, and it currently adversely affects one party more than the other.
Once you require ID, then republicans start adding roadblocks and requirements that make it tougher for classes of people.
On top of all that, it is an attempt to solve a problem that doesn't exist. Non-citizens are not attempting to vote.
This right here. It’s not a problem with voter ID. It’s a problem with getting the ID. Cost, accessibility, and prerequisites are all roadblocks. Those prerequisites all tend to be issues for the poorer people that tend to vote democrat. Right up there with refusal to make election day a holiday, making mail-in ballots a fight, reducing voting locations, making offers of water to people in long voting lines illegal…. Poorer people work maybe multiple jobs and can’t take the time off or spend time in long lines, so that’s all designed to reduce the democratic vote count.
