Not gonna happen, because as we've already established, one party thinks it'll give the other party an edge, and preventing that is more important than looking out for the voters. (And if the positions were reversed, I'm not convinced that their opponents wouldn't say the exact same thing.)
This seems like a good opportunity to give something and get something in return. We'll agree to voter ID laws; they can agree to expand early voting. There's a word for that sort of legislative agreement, though I haven't heard it in so long that I'm having trouble recalling it....
Right, it been steered into a thread about voter identification, racism, and minorities. Despite the OP not mentioning a specific unfair restriction, and the subject making the statement listing elderly, poor, and minorities as the groups affected.
But hey, just another day on INGO to complain about minorities.
Who complained about minorities? It has turned into a discussion about voter ID as that it the most loudly contested aspect of "restrictive" voting laws. Minorities were brought up as that has been the biggest excuse the Dem's have used as to why they don't like the voter ID laws.

Well that's just silly, how would they get my ID if they couldn't already get one of their own?
That's the beauty of not having to show ID!
I have not seen anyone state they disagree with these, I have seen people say they make arrangement ,absentee, early voting etc, to counteract these things
Well, I have voted (legally) in two counties (Randolph once, then several times in Delaware), and after this last move, I'll be voting in a third. We'll see how this year goes, but to date I have had zero difficulty. They did move the polling place four years ago, but that wasn't that big of a deal.
I would be interested to see hard data on the difficulty of voting in IN. Preferably from a more trustworthy source than a senatorial campaign.
But, honestly, not everything worth doing or having is going to be handed to you. Perhaps just a bit of effort, while not ideal, is not too onerous for such a solemn privilege. People stand in line for hours, risking getting blown up in Iraq for the chance to vote. They appreciate what it really means. Frankly, the right to decide our leadership in this country was neither easy nor cheap to obtain and maintain. So while easier, more accessible voting is a positive thing as long as fraud is kept at a minimum, it could be seen as petulant to complain about the difficulties of our elections.

Fixed that for them...
Oddly...I googled photos of ladies ironing panties and that didn't end well. [sigh] Let's just say this was the cleanest photo I could find for a family forum such as this.
What?What you did there............we see it.......
It was a legitimate study. I think it was published by those global warming, I mean, global cooling, I mean global climate change people. Oh **** it, What does it matter now?
The iraqis figured out how to prevent multiple votes.
Doesnt fix the ineligible voter, but it would prevent the bussing from station to station to station...
That is a badge of honor there.
Many places in the world do not have ready access to potable water. Having a clean well in the village is a huge deal, and the work of walking down to it so you can draw out your bucket full is a blessing, not a burden. Each of us in this discussion are within 30 feet or less of a faucet which will grant us a continuous stream of clean, drinkable water. And we don't give it a second thought, other than to complain when something leaks that we have to get it fixed.
This is also true of voting. It seams the easier something gets, the more we complain about it.
I just got some really really weird images in my warped little mind.........Ugh
Quick, someone get CM some eye candy!
On it!
Aaaahhhhhhh.......I need a minute alone boys.......
