Voter ID laws don't reduce voter turnout.

Strict voter ID laws do not suppress turnout, a new paper finds, regardless of sex, race, Hispanic identity, or party affiliation.

Neato.
Also from the executive summary of the paper:ID requirements have no effect on fraud either – actual or perceived.
So voter ID laws don't discriminate, nor do they stop voter fraud.
Why are we even having this discussion?
Because some politicians make a big deal about voter fraud, even though everything I've read/heard is that voter fraud is basically non-existent.
What we should really be spending time on is how to increase voter turnout. It's piss poor in the US. People are disenfranchised from the system. Sad! -
I think we should make it as hard as possible to vote to eliminate the stupid and lazy. if they made it tougher I would not waste my vote on 3rd or 4th party votes

“Minority’s (except
Asians and
Jews) are too dumb, poor and lazy to get ID” - The left. -
Asians are just the white man's proxy in our war to maintain our white privilege.
The throw a monkey wrench in all the claims of racism so the left just ignores them or makes them honorary whites. -

Is there anyone advocating that we only use voter ID laws to safeguard electoral integrity my strawman ass fucking friend?HHusky said:<"Our results suggest that efforts both to safeguard electoral integrity and enfranchise more voters may be better served through other reforms," it concludes./b>

The paper does note that one possible explanation for this effect is, paradoxically, that voter ID laws might goose turnout among certain marginalized groups. This, the authors argue, is because a perceived "attack" on a right (e.g., the right to vote) can mobilize voters who would otherwise fail to turn out.SFGbob said:Asians are just the white man's proxy in our war to maintain our white privilege.

Funny Mexico has voter ID's but they don't need them to vote here when they are not citizens.
Liberals are for the destruction of our nation by any means necessary. Well except like having to fight or something. They might break a nail! -

If only we could take this snipe hunt nationwide!

The dems have. They're actively registering illegals to vote. I think you should go help! But then looking at your posts I'm sure you already are comrade! Forward!HHusky said:If only we could take this snipe hunt nationwide!

I'm pretty sure your open borders have done a great job so far

I don't worry about that. All you libs told me that blacks and Hispanics were too stupid to obtain voter ID.HHusky said:

You told me for a fact that voter ID laws were racist because it suppressed black and Hispanic voter turnout you lying piece of crap.
-
I told you it reduces votes from voters who are more likely to vote Democrat.SFGbob said:You told me for a fact that voter ID laws were racist because it suppressed black and Hispanic voter turnout you lying piece of crap.
I know we all look alike to you. -
Because you think many black and Hispanic voters are too stupid to obtain voter ID. My memory is pretty damn good.

Oh blob. You sad little man.SFGbob said:Because you think many black and Hispanic voters are too stupid to obtain voter ID. My memory is pretty damn good.
There are populations of voters who are likely to vote Democrat and are less likely to have ID. I've never ever suggested that the GOP would advocate for voter ID laws if those same populations were more likely to vote GOP, so its not GOP racism. The GOP will accept a vote from anyone! And I've never suggested those populations are stupid.
Quit digging and see a doctor. -

because you think they are too stupid. I get it. Thankfully there is now some research to show your racist beliefs aren't accurate. -

Bob thinks someone who doesn't have a driver's license or State ID is dumb. And black or Hispanic.HHusky said:

blob has a race fixation. The populations likely to vote Democrat and have unacceptable IDs include young people, college students, the elderly poor and others. I've never said the GOP is too racist to accept anyone's vote. blob's grudges sort of blend together on him. Age, you know.2001400ex said:
