This is good news and hopefully it won't get shot down by those corrupt, anti-American politicians who hope to profit from illegal alien voters:
Rep. Henry Hyde (R-IL) has introduced a bill into the U.S. House of Representatives that would help curb voting fraud by requiring voters to provide photo identification when voting in federal elections.
"The Federal Election Integrity Act of 2004," or H.R. 4530, would specifically amend the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, also known as the Motor Voter law, to require any individual who desires to register or re-register to vote in an election for federal office to provide the state election official with proof of citizenship to prevent illegal aliens from voting in federal elections...

That we have to carry ID to drive is excessive. To vote? Fuck that.

I think it's a good idea. Given the amount of fraud that goes on and the lack of real protection of voter rights, this is a step in the right direction.

Great idea. Next up: recording the actual votes cast by the person so we can make sure no one's voting for the "wrong" person. Don't worry, it's for the kids.
