I have said multiple times in this thread that if these laws were only about voters having to show an ID I wouldn't have a problem with it. The reality is that most, if not all, of these voter ID laws also include things like shortening the number of early voting days, reducing times you can get an absentee or provisional ballot and reducing the time before voting that you can register. These are all things that are meant to reduce the number of votes cast and these are also things that studies have shown are more likely to be used by democrats.
