To make sure that votes are never canceled out by illegal votes, we instituted a photo ID requirement. And don't you think it's fair to apply at least the same standard required to get a library card or to board an airpane?

Requiring valid, photographic identification is a common sense step to ensure voter integrity and sound elections.

The United States Supreme Court has voted 6-3 that voter photo ID is constitutional.

People actually live with their id exposed. They're not good at concealing what's going on inside.

It is a sign of the times that the absence of meaningful ID requirements in many states leaves our voting process vulnerable to fraud and allows legal votes to be cancelled out by illegally cast ballots.

I am absolutely opposed to a national ID card. This is a total contradiction of what a free society is all about. The purpose of government is to protect the secrecy and the privacy of all individuals, not the secrecy of government. We don't need a national ID card.

It'll be nice not to have to use my fake IDs anymore.

Voting shouldn't be a challenge. It should be as easy and accessible as possible. We shouldn't require forms of ID that folks don't have. We shouldn't restrict days or hours that allow working people a chance to both do their job and exercise their democratic right, and we damn well shouldn't be throwing up new obstacles midstream.

We will literally send a van and a photographer to the home of anybody that can say they can't get a picture made and a photo ID and we will do it... at the state's cost and the taxpayer cost and not at the individual cost.

Surely, if we can land a spaceship on Mars, we can certainly put a voter ID card in the hand of every eligible voter.
