I'm pretty sure they did not ask for ID the last time I voted. I think I just had to fill out a piece of paper.
Those Russians must have fake ID's...
every state requires identification. some states make you jump through so many hoops, and are so restrictive about what kind of i.d. they take that legitimate voters are disenfranchised. for example, texas won't let married women vote unless they can show their marriage certificates to explain why their names are not the same as they were on their birth certificates. many states will take a gun registration (without a picture!) but not a college student i.d. issued by that very state. why? because they think gun owners will vote republican and students will vote democratic. there is more, much more, but those are some examples.

i just read some comments and saw that some states don't require i.d.... but surely you have to show who you are somehow? it used to be an envelope from a utility bill would do the trick.

I would think that a driver's license or state issued identification card would suffice.
@RobertMartin that would be fine. that's not what some states are requiring. they're requiring stuff a lot of folks can't come up with (and practicing voter repression in other ways that have nothing to do with i.d.s as well).
