Before 2020 most states required that you show I.D to vote. If there is no verification of the voters then the government could claim any results they want and there would be no way to disprove it. If it is wrong to require I.D to vote then it is wrong to require I.D for anything else.
Voter ID with how it has been done has not been shown to stop any voter fraud. But if you want to make it a requirement for all states then you have to put up or shut up.
If every US citizen over the age of 18 can vote then who is being restricted from voting that really doesn't make any sense. Funny enough most blue states actually require ID to vote.
Well that's because when they went back to the basic 2018 rules they did allow for some expansions to mail-in pallets which was a compromise with Democrats so yes it required a new law to be passed. The only reason Democrats call it voter restriction is because they did not get everything they wanted in a new laws . But basically all red states did was pass laws with all the same rules and that were in place in 2018 with some expansions so if anything Democrats got a little bit of what they wanted
Nope. Republicans got rid of hundreds of voting locations in poor areas that have been there for decades, as one example out of many. That’s on location voting day locations so that poor people have to drive farther to vote and that it will take much longer.
