Voter ID schemes only prevent people voting under other voters' names, and that kind of fraud appears to be extremely rare.

For fairly weak (and appropriately so) definitions of prove, in most cases. It would be more accurate in most jurisdictions, AFAIK, to say you must assert a set of facts which, if true, would make you eligible to vote in order to register.
