I realize many people think that voter ID mandates were considered as race based but all the actual objections made against it were that it places an undue burden on those that live in back country areas. It wasn’t a racial argument. It was the fact that many poor people live in out of the way areas that have difficult access, no transportation and also many handicapped people find it a burden as well.
I also understood that voter impersonation is extremely rare and insignificant. Other types of fraud are more likely but even that too is rare.
I’m in Colorado where we have had mail in voting for years now and it’s delightful for those who have difficulty getting to or standing in lines to vote. We do have three choices. We can vote in person at a polling station. We can drop our ballots off at a polling station or we can mail them in. It works great and many states have looked into our system in order to evaluate it for their state! Done correctly, it works!
