Every illegal vote that is cast disenfranchises someone who voted the opposite. Doesn’t matter which party the illegal vote was cast for. What matters is ensuring that each vote that is cast is a valid, legal vote.

John, what Silke said.

Seriously, I do not get why you liberals do not want to verify who is voting so as to avoid fraud. Y’all keep yammering on about stopping fraud, what better way then by asking for ID? Or is it that you libs are simply establishing a meme about fraud in order to blame others for what you actually support and attempt to do?

John, in this day and age of increasingly close elections voter fraud is a much bigger problem then the possibility of disenfranchised voters. If the concern is that a certain portion of the electorate will have a hard time getting a photo ID (which most people need just to cash a check these days), then why not argue for better access to photo ID’s?

Even Jimmy Carter supports more stringent voter identification requirements:

That sweeping support helps explain why, in 2005, 18 of 21 members of a bipartisan federal commission headed by former President Jimmy Carter and former Secretary of State James Baker came out in support of photo ID requirements more stringent than Indiana’s. “Voters in nearly 100 democracies use a photo identification card without fear of infringement on their rights,” the commission stated. Mr. Carter feels strongly about voter fraud. In his book, “Turning Point,” he wrote of his race for Georgia State Senate in 1962, which involved a corrupt local sheriff who had cast votes for the dead. It took a recount and court intervention before Mr. Carter was declared the winner.

The fewer Americans that are allowed to vote the more likely the Republicans are to win. Getting rid of any “undesirable” voters improves their chances.
