Wanting to know, who is voting, actually checking the ID! That ist racist! Because some race doesn't like the ID.

I posted it because that is exactly how ridiculous I've always seen those claims to be. Whether a person is black, white, rich, or poor, no adult in the United States can function in today's society without a legal ID. To imply that black adults, whether poor or not, are running around without an ID is the height of dishonesty.
Just look at the reactions on the faces of those people interviewed.

I agree, but what is real is voter suppression.

The claim that voter ID laws cause voter suppression is ridiculous.

I know that isn't what you said... I was just making the statement.
Sorry for the confusion.
