But only citizens which meets THEIR definition of "eligible", that is people who will continue to vote against their own self-interests year after year. Anyone who might just vote for that which will benefit themselves and their families, we can't let these selfish people vote. No that would be un-American, letting EVERYONE vote, including the poor, those who don't look like us, the old, college students, the disabled, service men deployed overseas, those who have paid their debts to society...
Besides, please provide the evidence that in-person voter fraud is widespread enough in this country that it's in the best interest of the nation to disenfranchise potentially millions of Americans citizens to stop it. You know you can't because if it there was evidence it would have already been presented in the cases cited in the article and yet not one single state invoking these new voter-ID laws can produce even a handful of cases where these laws would have stopped voter fraud.
These are laws for a problem which does NOT and NEVER has existed. For example, how does early voting increase the potential for in-person voter fraud yet no one ever questions absentee ballots?
