Right that's my point. You need an ID to get a car or a beer, because those aren't federally protected rights. Voting IS such a right.

Also you know, disproportionate impact on poor people/minorities. This is the latest study I know of: http://pages.ucsd.edu/~zhajnal/page5/documents/voterIDhajnaletal.pdf …

Capable? Absolutely. But poor people & ppl in segregated neighborhoods face greater barriers to getting that ID and have less reason...

To have the ID already. It's not about capability, it's about a disproportionate impact on one group vs. another.

Again, nothing to do with capacity, all to do with disproportionate impact.

Let's imagine that it's equally burdensome on all parts of society to get an ID. Then we should expect vote ID laws to lower voting rate...

Equally for all segments. So 3% less poor people, 3% less rich people, 3% less black people, 3% less white people, 3% less Latinx ppl, etc.

But we don't see that. We see disproportionate impact on some groups. Why? It must be that it's harder, right? Still possible, but harder.
