    About 70 young Native Americans marched to a polling place on a reservation near Belcourt chanting "North Dakota — you can't do that," following an ongoing dispute over a law that requires residential addresses on ID in order to vote. https://abcn.ws/2Dp0xI1  #ElectionDaypic.twitter.com/JIuxBlxa71

        Can someone tell me why it is a bad idea for the poll station to ask for your residence address? People should be proud of where they live and feel better that they are authenticating citizens in their districts!

        911 requires a residential address, you can’t livein a P.O. Box. I don’t understand the issue with having an actual physical address. state issued Ids are usually free.

        There are two 911 systems in use. The street names and numbers don't match from one system to the next. Also, the 911 addresses often DO NOT MATCH the mailing address of record or the actual street address. It is shameful this is how voters are disenfranchised.

        And state-issues IDs are NOT “usually free.” Even those that are free often require a birth certificate costing usually $8 - $25 (mine was $50!), and for some married people w/ name changes, a marriage license, costing $8 - $20. ID places can be far from any public transport too.

        My uncle is at ND polls this week with other lawyer volunteers, helping to ensure eligible voters with PO Box addresses, living on Native American reservations, are allowed to vote.

        Many Native Americans in question have IDs, just not IDs with their physical (not mailing) address on them. (Some reservations don't use addresses & some IDs just don't have addresses on them, like mine). Others had ID but were told their vote didn't count bc of ink color.

        How do these young natives get cell phone accounts? Do they all live at home? Do they pay bills?-You need ID for those.

        It’s not hard to get an ID. They just haven’t made it a priority.

        The issue isn't that they do have IDs, the problem is that they have PO box addresses on them which aren't allowed at the polling station.

        Many reservations do not have street names and house numbers.

        Yet somehow the 911 system does have street addresses for reservations. Don’t let facts get in the way.
