  • Can anyone explain to someone who’s not from there why is it a bad thing to require photo ID?

    In my country, you don’t have to register to vote. You need to register your residence (aka: where you live) and that gives you access to all the services of the area and also let’s you vote assigning you an electoral area where you cast your ballot.

    Still, when you are voting, you need to go there with your ID (which has always a photo) and it’s checked before voting. Why in the US that’s a problem so big? Why are they fearing this could be used to manipulate the elections?
