Do you think everyone should have to present a valid ID to vote?

Asked at Massachusetts Street on April 29, 2008

“Yeah, I think so. I don't think it's that much to ask for someone to have one.”

“I think they should. You have to be accountable for who you're voting for. Without verifying that they are who they say they are, they could potentially vote more than once.”

“No. Some people face difficulties in acquiring identification in the first place, and that would be akin to the disenfranchisement laws used in the South up until the late '60s and even today.”

“Yeah, I don't see any problem with that. It seems reasonable; you have to present one to cash a check.”
