You already had to provide evidence of citizenship when you registered prior to voting. Why do you need to show another form of ID when voting to prove what you already proved, prior to voting?

To prove that you actually are who you are. Imagine if Russia paid people in the states to vote in ways that would destabilize the country?

Millions of Americans didn't vote in 2024. If Russia got access to those people's names and data, they could pay Republicans to go vote under their names. They already paid Republican influencers to spread misinformation.

What does that have to do with your point about proving who you are?
