We should NEVER have ID in the United States. No, it's the other way around: The government needs to prove to US who THEY are.
There is only one reason and ever one reason for the government to try and identify someone, and that's when they have evidence that a crime has been committed, and they suspect someone of committing it. THAT'S IT.
If you think someone is voting who should not be -- then point at them and accuse them of a crime.
It used to be we have polling stations in precincts small enough that everyone knew each other. We should go back to that. No anonymous voting. If you don't live in the area, and people don't know you, you don't get to vote.
If they are living in the woods by themselves -- they have no "civil" to have civil liberties in! Do you think the bears or coyotes care whether they are here in the US legally? Or maybe they care whether they've had too much to speak?
When it comes to voting, people forget that votes are not magical. It is the physical presence of a man who declares that not only does he support something, but he has the military arms to back that decision up. Go back to Athens and Rome and go look at what voting meant for them.
The idea that people who exclude themselves from society should have a say in how that society is governed is ridiculous.

You're out of your mind
Not everyone knows everyone
Some are off the grid, live in the middle of a corn field, grow their own stuff and keep to themselves
And you're going to deprive them of their civil liberties ?
What civil liberties do you imagine they have?
