I don't see the issue. These laws are only being put in place to combat voter fraud, to make sure each person only votes once and that no one votes under someone else's name. Voting is one of the most important responsibilities we have as Americans, so there needs to be some ways to protect the legitimacy of your vote. Besides, its so cheap and easy to get a license that the only people that this law should be offensive to are advocates of voter fraud.

These laws do not make it harder to vote. In some cases the voting hours have been extended. Democrats say that people will not bother to get an ID so they can vote and Biden said that people will have to stand in line for 8 hours without water. I have lived and a few different places. Some urban and some rural and no matter when I showed up to vote, the longest it took was a half hour. The only people who cannot get an ID is somebody who is not a citizen.
These laws are totally racist and Jim Crow, because even though the voter ID might be free, blacks aren't really smart enough or savvy enough to figure out how to get them.
Everyone has the right to vote in America, and it shouldn't matter what country you're a citizen of , or how smart you are.

This is stopping voter fraud but all this will do is piss
people off and more people who did not vote will make
sure they will get out to vote and I believe as much as
former President Donald Trump tried helping America
by banning Muslim countries / building the wall for
Mexican's not to come to America all he did was piss
a lot of American's off and they said f--ck this was
going to vote for Biden so see there is a lot of bad blood
and it's sad that the Republican's and Democrats
can't work together and solve matters to pass laws
instead of being at each other's throats my opinion
I think Mr. Trump ruined the Republican party he
turned them into haters and it's sadAnyone who cannot go to the trouble of obtaining a FREE ID required to vote, shouldn't be allowed to vote.
If you can't do at least that much to protect the integrity of most important right Americans have, you don't deserve to have that right.
Apparently Democrats think that black people are too stupid to do what everyone else does and get an ID. So they call ID's racist. In fact THEY are the racists.I live in Florida and I see this spreading, especially throughout the south.
Southern states are really into vote suppression - it's Jim Crow 2.0!
"Harder for people to vote", biased much?
Having to show ID is hardly an unreasonable standard.Not sure it will work. The court cases against these laws has a good batting average. Most laws are tossed before next elections.
If people can go grocery shopping, to the movies, out to eat, they can take their ass to city hall and get a voter id.
I voted D. I think they will help legitimize voting, especially voting by mail. I think all states should go to “confirm identity before voting”.
so if the only thing we don't need an ID for is voting, why should I show my ID anywhere else?
Also if there isn't any fraud, these laws won't change anything.The red states will because retardlicans can't win on the merit of their ideas (they don't have any), and all they care about is power by any means necessary.
These laws improve the election system in the states, doesn’t mean less people can vote obv
Murica pretending to be a democracy, as usual.
