The actual reason for this bill is the political calculus that certain kinds of people — the poor, minorities, disabled people and the elderly — are less likely to have valid ID. They are less likely to have cars, and therefore to have drivers’ licenses. There are ways for nondrivers to get special ID cards, but the bill’s supporters know that many people will not go to the effort if they don’t need them to drive.
But drivers license or no drivers license, I was taught the importance of voting at an early age. Just think if this thing does go down! People get out and make sure you take care of it!
Back in 2004, I tried to get a lot of people to register to vote at my county fair. You would be surprised at how many didn't like Dubya but didn't wish to take the time to register to vote! Man did I learn a lot of things during that time of volunteering!:grr: :banghead: :wtf:
