1) To "what is proof?" by Anonymous Citizen on October 30, 2007
If you can't make the effort to go get approved identification you shouldn't vote. How can you expect people who can't even be prepared to show they are eligible to vote to make informed decisions? If they are not informed, I don't want them to vote regardless of whether they are Republican or Democrat. Frankly, I want to disenfranchise the stupid!

2) What is proof? by jmangan on October 29, 2007
And just what is proof of citizenship? Certainly not a drivers license. Maybe a passport? Birth certificate? Maybe the idea behind this bill is to make it hard for the poor and minorities to vote. Oh, and they just happen to vote democratic.
