So ... there were photo ID's in 1789? Otherwise I can't understand how the "Founding Fathers" could have identified themselves. No. The "Photo ID" requirement is a voter suppression gambit. Look in your wallet. Now, remove your driver’s license. Now, do you have a "Photo ID" remaining? (Social Security cards and the like are not "Photo ID's.") If not, you might want to pay to get one from a government agency for a small fee. Consider this: that minimal fee would be considered a large fee by people living in poverty. Such a person might go for food and shelter first. This is voter suppression pure and simple. 5,000,000 people are losing their ability to vote. These are not members of the ruling elite. Rather, they are the poor and disadvantaged, the very people who might not vote for conservative causes such as cutting food stamps and the like.
