All of the argument against Voter Ids seems to be that it is a terrible burden on minorities to obtain this document. I am in Florida where I have had to show Id seemingly forever. I had to show Id to obtain a Library Card and need to show Id for almost every kind of transaction imaginable. It strikes me that showing Id is part of everyday life. If the burdened individual can make it to the polling booth to vote, they can get to DMV or wherever to obtain Id. Considering that the 2000 election was decided by only a few votes here in Florida, it concerns me that even a very small amount of fraud can swing an election. I guess I am just clueless.
