Why are Democrats against using an ID to vote?

You need an ID to drive a car, buy cigarettes/alcohol, buy a car or house, and to open up a bank account.

    Not against the ID. But such an ID has to be free and easy to get.

    Many immigrants come from countries where they might kill you if you vote for the wrong person. Some of those people might mistrust a polling place that demands to see your I.D. before casting a ballot.

    I don't need to show my licence each time I get in my car.

    Haven't been asked to provide ID for alcohol or cigs in 40 years. 

    House/car. Maybe because you want an expensive item worth a bucket load of money. 

    I don't need to provide I.D every time I use my bank account. The same as when I provided ID when I registered to vote.

    As long as the ID is easy to get and everyone has one.  If you want to require a particular government-issued ID, then the government ought to issue that ID to all at the time of registration to vote.

    I do not have a problem with asking people to demonstrate that they are who they claim to be.  I have a problem with using that reasonable request as an excuse to prevent a citizen from exercising his right to vote.

    But I am not a democrat.  I simply am definitely not a Republican.  It is anti-American to try to prevent citizens from voting by any means at all.  We ought to be making it easier for every single American to vote, not the other way around.

    That would limit voters to legal citizens only who would  at least partially be represented by tax payers who would never vote against their economic futures by electing these socialist democrp spend and tax nut jobs.

    As long as it's the same ID no problem. But having to get a "special" ID just to vote is ridiculous.
