Who really needs legal residents to vote in an election when you can get the illegal ones to vote themselves some more benefits at no cost to them.. This is stupid.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe these types of things? - born at a time or place that didn't issue birth certificates or affidavits of live birth? - birth records destroyed in local/state building fire - too far to walk - nobody to take them - picture taking steals the soul What documentation do you think is reasonable to get one more identification paper.My reality and yours are quite different.

Who really needs legal residents to vote in an election when you can get the illegal ones to vote themselves some more benefits at no cost to them.. This is stupid.Politics as usual. Nothing more, nothing less. Quote The state's Republican leadership had said the law was meant to fight voter fraud, but Democrats countered that Republicans who championed the measures aimed to make it harder for minority voters who tend to vote Democratic to cast ballots. Fraud is OK as long as it's favorable to Dems.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

Some come here illegally with no U.S.-valid ID and manage to get driver's license and more...apparently fairly easily. Pretty easy to get a birth certificate...no ID needed...just information.
