Do you need an ID with your current address to buy cigarrettes? Because you need one with your address to vote in North Dakota. It's not just about having ID.

It's not just about having ID. I have loads of cards with my face and name on it. It's about the ID requirements being tailored to disenfranchise certain voters. It's public record that this is the motivation for the people making these laws! There's no debate about the motive, because people are on the record as saying it's targeted disenfranchisement!
- isoskeles 8y agoMaybe you could provide a link.
- ModernMech 8y agoThis right here. When you are allowed to use a gun registration but not a student ID, that tells you everything you need to know about what the intended purpose is.
- chrisco255 8y agoStudent IDs aren't government issued. You can get a student ID from a private school.
- chrisco255 8y agoNo, it's not. It's to prevent people from voting for, say, people in nursing homes, dead people whose registrations haven't expired yet, non-citizens from registering, etc.
