    No, it does NOT create an UNDUE burden -- not any more than showing an ID when purchasing alcohol, opening a bank account, obtaining social services for food and housing and medical services, when renting or getting a new job, when getting a bus pass, etc. Identification is a way of life. Why try to create a problem when there is none?

      Maybe Not For You In Your Little Bubble. How Many Poor People Do Not Have Bank Accounts In The USA? I Never Show ID Buying Alcoholic Beverages At My Local Market. Public Transportation Is Free In Our Community (120k+) No ID Required. Actually, You Don't Need ID To Receive Emergency Medical Care and The Homeless Don't Have Jobs. In Your World You May Need ID But We All Don't Live In Your World!

      The problem is you’re creating a undue burden and further restriction on a fundamental right to vote.
      Which would be ok, if you had a strong justification for it like evidence of massive or even significant voter fraud …. But you don’t have that.
      You’re trying to restrict a right based on a made up problem.

    You need an ID or driver's license to do pretty much ANYTHING. Buy cigarettes, buy lotto tickets, buy alcohol, buy certain over the counter medications, get a job, get a lease on an apartment, buy a house, get a loan or lease on a car, drive or sometimes even simply ride in a motor vehicle as a passenger, and the list goes on. But for some reason, there is a portion of the country that insists you don't need an ID of any kind to vote for who your leaders are. This is odd, to say the least. I'll leave the worst up to your imagination.

    As a minority, I don’t feel like voter ID laws are impacting me in anyway, shape, or form. In fact, I’m shocked why it’s not already a federal requirement. I thought it was this whole time and it should be. Plus multiple studies have been conducted on this topic and they too found no evidence that voter ID law’s negatively impacted minorities or anyone in general.

      Everyone who is a citizen of the United States and loves our country sgould be the only people coting in this country. If demons take down America then according to Gods word it will be the beginning of the rise of the beast and the beast system.
      Say goodbye to freedom.
      Say goodbye to thinking for yourself.
      Say goodbye to entrepreneurship.
      Say goodbye to ownimg intellectual property because the beast will take your great idea as there own.
      Say goodbye to all the good moral people who believe in Jesus Christ because God loves his people and he will catch us up before the rise of the beast. The beadt system is a system of lies so you will be told that aliens took us.
      I have no fesr but I will fight for the lost people who are still delussional (hence the ones wearing mask) Covid is no more deathly to a healthy person than the flu. Plenty of data to back that statement up.
      If you are ok living in a communist world with one government controlling all the sheep (people who live in fear and don't trust God) then continue believing that voter ID is not necessary.
      I am just saying show your citizenship with a licence, birth certificate and other photo id with your birth name on it.
      Illegal citizens will vite for the beast system because the beast system makes lots of promises. I witness illega citizens taking citizens jobs. Some live better than us because they get free stuff and they don't pay taxes. Many in my neighborhood are guilty. They let there maids use there addresses so there children can get a better education. My son missed out getting in junior gaurds because they could only let in so many kids because of all the illegals faking that they live in our town. I am very aware of how easy it is to get proof of a lie if a group or individual wants it bad enough.
      Democrats don't want to lose there power. Thwy have been scamming Americans for decades. Its time for every citizen of America to wake up and fight the beast system or many will be lost for eternity.
      That is the beast systems goal. To take your soul. Like I said, I do not fear because I know I am safe, but I feel I have a duty to fight for my brothers and sisters wgo are good people but they are lost.
      Think about what I have told you and please use your talents to save America instead of foghting against it.
      Thank you.
