a viable alternative might actually be an interesting conversation. But as things are right now, you do not need ID to register to vote. You know that, right? So the rolls do not require ID.

(and also incidentally about the integrity of the list, but ok, let's call that a separate problem).
I think you are assuming a lot of things about what I think is ok. I'm just telling you what is, dude.
