“You must be a legal resident of Iowa and the precinct you live in and bring a photo ID with you to participate,” the state Republican party said on Friday in a post on the social media platform X.
The party is scheduled to hold local gatherings, known as the Iowa Caucus, on Jan. 15 in which participants will vote for their choice for the Republican candidate to run in November’s presidential election. U.S. President Joe Biden is expected to be the Democratic Party’s nominee.
The state Republican Party posted its reminder after Casey DeSantis, appearing on Fox News with her husband, the governor of Florida, called on women from across the country to join the gatherings, saying, “You do not have to be a resident of Iowa to participate."
No, I’m saying the number of people who a) want to vote but b) don’t take part in any other sort of adult life due to not having ID is incredibly low.
Okay? So once again, are you saying it doesn’t matter if you discriminate against someone’s rights as long as they’re a minority? It’s like we’re reliving the 1800s-1960s with each one of your comments.
I’m not advocating for discrimination, I’m saying I doubt that there are any reasonable number of adults who want to vote but can’t due to a lack of ID when you need to have ID to do literally anything else in adult society.
Maybe you missed the everyone in the previous post. It doesn’t matter if it’s two people in the country (it’s likely at least a million, that would be less than 0.3%), no one eligible should not be able to vote.
