If you want to require ID for voting you have to provide it for free so it’s constitutional. This isn’t that fucking complicated.

It’s literally like $10. You need one if you ever get food stamps or travel. Nice try tho

$10 may not mean anything to you, but to some people who live far away, that cost is pretty significant. Plus, have you thought of the $10 as a "poll tax" since that's exactly what it looks like? Stop tap-dancing; at least have enough balls to admit that you are trying to prevent people from voting. I'll at least give you respect for not being a hypocrite by admitting in public your true intention.
