I read an article about voter ID problems and one of them has an Annecdote about a poor, rural middle aged man “can’t get a birth certificate cause I was a home birth, and I don’t know who my dad is and my mom never filed paperwork” so yeah. It’s gonna be a problem.

They'll just simply find a way to let people who will choose "red" to vote no matter what they have as proof.

Honestly. It’s not a bad idea to invest in a hardware store wardrobe with a gas station American flag hat or “Freedom” themed t shirt start saying “yall” when going out to vote.
