Photo ID required to vote?
As you may have heard lately, there's currently a push for some legislation that requires every state to check for Photo IDs when someone goes to vote in the US.
Now, let's not get this wrong, I support the idea because that would mean that it will be less likely that we will not have people vote more then once. Of course, this already goes on where I live, and I think it's a fairly simple rule. Show ID, go vote. However, opponents of the legislation argues that it will prevent the minority from voting, because they're less likely to own any form of ID.
But, what about the illegal immigrants? They could vote if Photo IDs were not required, as there would be no way to know if they were legal US citizens able to vote.
Let's set that aside and hear what you guys have to say about this. Do you think that Photo IDs should be required when voting? And what do you think about this legislation? Should it be a law for every state to require Photo IDs for citizens to vote, or not?
Also, I guess this can also apply for other countries. Do you support the idea that citizens require a form of Photo ID when voting?
