Andy Taylor... really? Where are Barney, Aunt Bee, and Opie? Does this guy stay in a corner room at the Y?
Seriously though, not much insight. Unless we require positive identification at registration and the poll then we are saying anyone can vote anywhere, anytime, and as often as they want. It was not many years ago when everyone voted on election day and absentee voting was rare. Saying these changes disenfranchise voters creates a new standard and that standard would result in the age 18, a US citizen, a resident, not in prison, not a felon long time voting requirements also being struck down as they also disenfranchise voters.
