I've never really understood this. Where I vote, you have to present ID. Are there locations that let people wander in and just vote 1000 times because they aren't verifying? I mean, is that what these MAGA people think?

Yeah, I know, they want to make it as hard as possible to keep poorer Dems from voting. It just seems so obvious like when TACO says gas prices are down below $2.00 as if none of us drive cars. Idiocy.

Even if they don't check ID you need a registered voter name in the correct polling location, and you can't use the same name twice. So even without ID you shouldn't be able to vote more than once.

Yeah... that too.
