Have you ever tried to navigate an ordinary day without showing your identification? I have to show mine at the bank and the airport, to cash a check, if a cop stops me for a taillight, to get on base, to pick my kid up at school, to fill a prescription ... and those are just the items I can think of off the top of my head. I show my ID to someone on average every other day.

In fact, in Alaska, you can't register to vote without showing photo ID. My 18-year-old son recently registered on line and he had to give his driver's license number, which has a photo attached to it. He also had to show that ID when he was randomly stopped by a cop recently for walking while young.

So, to say that people are having their right to vote infringed by requiring photo ID at the polls is ridiculous. You need photo ID just about everywhere you go in any given day. Why would you leave it at home when you go vote? The vast majority of us drive to the polls, therefore we should have ID on us.
