So, my position is that voting should be as easy and accessible to everyone who is eligible as possible.
Certain aspects of new voter ID laws make voting less accessible to many. There are realistic ways to make it more accessible to them. We have used them before and they have been effective in maintaining the integrity of elections.
Realistically, what policy not currently in place could be instituted that would make it easier for the person you're describing to vote?
Actually, the specific point we were addressing was whether it is harder for some people to vote than others.
There are lots of policies we could adopt to make things easier, but that's not the government's role and I don't want to spend my tax dollars trying to help people who don't have the motivation to get off their butts and do what everyone does to take part in the voting process.
That said, I don't have a problem with waiving fee requirements for people who have trouble paying for an ID or even providing transportation to the polls if the person is disabled or has financial difficulty getting to the polls. But the ID requirement? I'm sorry, it's just not a burdensome or unreasonable requirement.
