Not a serious response, madaboutmd. You challenged me to offer evidence that more than 20 states have passed laws making it more difficult to vote, some of them empowering state legislatures to overrule the will of the voters. I provided that evidence and the laws passed do far more than require photo ID. You responded with a verbose, rambling comment suggesting that there's nothing wrong with making it hard to vote since we all want clean and fair elections. We already have clean and fair elections. More than 60 judges from both parties, some of them appointed by Trump have reviewed the "evidence" of voter fraud in our last election and found them unworthy of serious consideration. Numerous audits, including some by pro-Trump groups like Cyber Ninjas have turned up nothing. In fact, they found that Biden's margin of victory in Arizona was wider than the official total.

If you're serious about protecting our democratic procedures and voting rights, consider this article from the Harvard Law Review:

"This Essay describes the path to this unexpected moment of democratic peril in the United States. Part II explains the three potential mechanisms by which American elections may be subverted in the future. Part III recommends steps that can and should be taken to minimize this risk. Preserving and protecting American democracy from the risk of election subversion should be at the top of everyone’s agenda. The time to act is now, before American democracy disappears."
