This has been a concerted effort to disenfranchise voters with the excuse of non existent voter fraud. The poor, elderly, black, Latino etc may not be traveling by air or driving a car or going to bars. Right?  (I mean, think before you write and consider other people's circumstances different from your own). It is not unusual for the elderly - like my father - to not have a valid birth certificate. Many people do not drive.  Many forms of ID have been invalidated.  In otherwise the voter ID issue is a solution without a problem. This had been discussed and researched and these voters are clearly being targeted since they tend to vote Democratic.  There were cases in the past 2 elections, in black neighborhoods, when people showed up to vote WITH an ID that they were told was invalid. Please read the WaPo article and do your own research and keep your mind open to what you may not want to believe but is the truth.
