Why should I have to have anything (I don't really, though I do have birth certificate, dl, passport, ss card, voter registration card)? I am supposed to carry all that and my utility bill to the polls because you guys in the state capital say so? I am known personally to the registrar, the captain of the polls, and every poll worker in my town. Why don't you guys lay off and let the people running the polls determine what they need where they work?
"I am known personally to the registrar, the captain of the polls, and every poll worker in my town."
Whopdeedoo.
Not everyone enjoys the same level of celebrity that you do. Should they not get to vote because the poll workers don't recognize them on sight and cheer their name when they walk into the polling place?
I live and vote in a very small place, I went to hs with all these people, or their parents. My point was let the people who have the problem handle the problem. Why create unnecessary burdens on everyone when only a few precincts are even potentially problematical?
Why don't you just get the ID card, and stop whinning? Maybe you are not all that well known. Maybe you just think everyone knows who you are. just get the ID card. The Supreme Court said it is constitutional. Get over it.
Why should I go to the trouble and cost of covering YOUR doubt? My photo, finger prints, and dna are on file with the feds (Army) and my foot prints too with the state. If YOU doubt I am who I say I am, go satisfy the matter YOURSELF on YOUR time with YOUR money. I don't owe you a thing, ani.
You don't have to go to any trouble at all. The Supreme court says it is constitutional to verify you are who you are pretending to be, so if you don't get it you don't vote. Your choice.
Verify away! The government keeps the records, let them look at them! That's no excuse to pester me about it. CAN do something and SHOULD do something are not the same thing, ani. Why should we do this?
