re: #2 Mostly sane, most of the time.

The ID’s must be provided for free, or it is indeed a poll tax.

The point is: the IDs are not necessary. These laws are purportedly addressing a problem that does not exist.

Making voter IDs free completely misses the point. Free or not, they will still disenfranchise many people, and this is what they’re intended to do.

This is a giant Republican scam.
