I mean, tertiary reserves can only be a good thing, right? Why not mandate them for everyone? Do you really want to be plummeting to the Earth after your main and reserve fail?

I'm not aware of any cases where someone went to vote and found that someone else had pretended to be them and 'stole' their vote. I'm not aware of any cases where requiring ID would have had any effect at all. Are you? If it doesn't prevent any fraud, why require it? Other than the obvious point that poor and minorities are the most likely demographics to not have ID and they tend to vote "D", which is why the Rs have gone to so much effort to require it.

normiss 723 #5 September 25, 2019 I totally came here thinking Trump had made this thread. He did have sexual relations with that woman AND violated the Constitution. Hard to believe I'm seeing the third impeachment process in my life. At least he made history, finally, accomplished something I suppose. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't have mattered in this case, the system worked and the person got caught, wasn't about ID anyway, person committing fraud who was the most capable of do it on a large scale still could not do it on a large enough scale to have any effect upon the election. Simply put it's a waste of money and the effort is a blatant political move to get people to not vote. Edited October 1, 2019 by DJL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
