Can someone explain to me why requiring an ID for voting in the US is such a controversial topic? Coming from France, it's inconceivable that someone could vote without justifying officially who they are first. I think most countries with ID systems work like that for voting, no? 🤷‍♂️

One in ten eligible voters do not have a photo ID that would be necessary to vote under these schemes. In many areas of the US it's not easy to get a photo ID due to cost, not having their birth certificate, or other reasons. 420 $degen
