Even if you believe that (which I don't)- neither is the theft of library books but you need an ID and library card to get one. Do you honestly believe that the left would spend a fortune in challenging voter registration laws if it was irrelevant?

Lemmee see.....millions of illegal immigrants and refugees....dems promise them govt benefits......id registration laws could keep them from voting....hmmmm. If only I had any capacity for critical thinking I'm sure I could come up with a connection.


What you're talking about are two very separate issues. Voter fraud contributes almost nothing on a national scale. It doesn't move the needle in a presidential election one way or the other.

Now if you want to talk long term plans of democrats enfranchising mass amounts of demographics through amnesty, immigration, etc... then I'm with you. That's 100% a political ploy to develop a quick mass of voters immediately. But that doesn't really have to do with a lot of the voter fraud instances that are regularly discussed.

Not in the popular vote - but small pockets in swing states can definitely swing elections because of how the electoral college works. You effect one state and that could be enough.

Also, this is a straw man argument anyway. The fact is that proof of ID should be required as it is for almost everything else. Whether or not it isn't a major issue is irrelevant.

Again - if it's so irrelevant why is the DNC up in arms and litigating this issue?
