There is only one reason for resistance to requiring a voter to present
ID to prove they have the right to vote in elections; votes.

Does anyone think illegal aliens don't vote in our elections?

Does anyone think that those who have lost their right to vote don't
vote in our elections?

When a whole box full of votes are `suddenly discovered' in a back room,
or a closet, or in somebody's trunk...do you `really' think nothing is
wrong? 

There's been the `graveyard' vote since I can remember! People who've been
dead for several years cast the `deciding votes' in a local or state
election.

A voter ID should be tied to a person's birth certificate or citizenship
papers. No valid ID...you don't get to vote!

There is no honest reason for the continued resistance to voter ID.
