Do you need ID to drive? How about banking? Buying liquor or cigarettes? Yeah, you need ID to prove your age. Credit requires ID. Paying taxes requires an ID. Collecting social security or unemployment benefits requires ID. Doctor’s visits require ID. But for some reason voting should require nothing? That should be exempt? 😂🤣 By the very same rules of your outrage I should be able to walk into your bank, say I am you and with no further proof withdraw all of your money! Get a grip.

@stratosranger If you’re white no one would question you there if you did.

One of the bills filed Monday would require registered voters to provide their date of birth, driver’s license number or other ID card number to request an absentee ballot. The bill would also require voters to submit photocopies of their ID similar to a separate bill proposed by state Sen. Jason Anavitarte, R-Dallas, last week
– ending automatic voter registration for Georgians who receive new or renewed driver’s licenses;
– prohibiting anyone except state and local elections officials and candidates from sending voters applications for mail-in ballots;
– blocking people from casting ballots in congressional or U.S. Senate runoffs after voting in general elections in a different state;
– requiring county coroners to share monthly data on local deaths with county elections officials to prevent illegal ballots from dead voters;
– allowing poll watchers to monitor vote tabulations more closely.
In essence, stopping election FRAUD. Yes, I’m educated on it, thank you.

@newjaninev2 Bruh 💀 We've always used IDs to vote. It's common practice in my part of the world.

Voting is over rated anyway, I live in Ca, and we overwhelmingly voted several years ago to not allow illegals in schools, or give them state aid or treat them at hospitals, only to be ignored by the courts. Last year we again voted to eliminate the time change and keep daylight savings time year round...still changing those damn clocks twice a year.
What is the sense of voting if it means nothing?

@independentone sadly, you are deliberately defeating the values of the voting

In most civilized Western Nations, it's normal practice and even Law in some Countries to have to show ID to vote. America should be no different and there should be a National Election Commission that sets the same voting rules for all States. Laws for voting should be the exact same in every State or is that too Communist for some? Let the States control their State Elections but they should not have any say in the Presidential Election.

Having to show ID will eliminate signature matching, so, just a trade off there, you can still vote by mail, but you have to request it, it won't just be sent to everyone, meh, baby steps. The water thing is to make it illegal for vendors to hawk their goods at polling places. If some old lady needs some water, you can still give her one for free, just can't be charging for it.

@independentone On a hot day with people outdoors in line, people charge for G.D. water?

Maybe they need to set up the media so only Georgia's circle of friends can see what BS the state is pulling this week.

What are the actual restrictions?

@DDonde It’s funny when you go to the links all you get is spin and opinion but never a direct answer on what changes were made. To simplify without extraneous narrative:
One of the bills would require registered voters to provide their date of birth, driver’s license number or other ID card number to request an absentee ballot. The bill would also require voters to submit photocopies of their ID similar to a separate bill proposed by state Sen. Jason Anavitarte, R-Dallas, last week

– requiring county coroners to share monthly data on local deaths with county elections officials to prevent illegal ballots from dead voters;
– allowing poll watchers to monitor vote tabulations more closely.
In other words, closing off all the ways elections are STOLEN.
