>>>If there has been enough voter fraud to justify disenfranchising as much as 10% of the population, it should be easy enough to prove it- and even to take action to assist those you risk disenfranchising so it doesn't look as if two wrongs are supposed to make a right.

>>Good point. Seems to me that this should be similar to the issue of risking freeing many guilty so as not to allow even one innocent to be jailed. In the same way, we should be willing to risk many fraudulent votes so as not to disenfranchise even one legitimate voter. (And, of course, there is little or no evidence of widespread fraud of a sort that the ID laws would prevent.)

Again with capitalism as the root of all evil? ;-)
