They only run the world because we allow them too. Why do you think the Republicans have introduced so many restrictive voter laws and regulations to attempt to suppress the vote in states nationwide? And it's not just requirements for ID. It's about them closing polling places near poverty stricken and black communities. It's about attempting to prevent absentee voting and early voting to ensure lines will be longer in an attempt to keep people from waiting to vote. It's about not allowing unaffiliated volunteers to hand out food and water to those waiting in lines to vote for hours. It's about conservatives wanting people to be allowed to carry guns INSIDE polling places or in front of polling places in an attempt to scare people from voting. It's about gerrymandering districts so the diverse and poverty stricken communities have their votes wiped out by those of the upper middle class by designing the district in a way that makes no geographical sense.
WAKE THE FUCK UP.
Do you actually believe that only one side cheats?

Voter ID laws are the norm in Europe and just about everywhere

Some states have automatic voter registration without identification. This is a way to inflate voter rolls and make it easier to cheat.
You need ID to cast a ballot in Europe.
There is no early voting in Europe.

My state has automatic voter registration and clearly you're uninformed on how it works. You're enrolled when you turn 18 but that's only for those that have drivers licenses or state id cards prior to your 18th birthday and where they showed documentation proving citizenship when they got.those DL's.or ID's. Obviously in states where undocumented immigrants can get ID's and Drivers licenses they won't be enrolled because they didn't show proof of citizenship to obtain those. Get it? This isn't a hard.concept.to.grasp. you're just against anything that makes it easier.to cast a ballot or to get young people engaged and voting because when more people vote your side loses.

Why is voter identification a difficult concept for you
reply
Automatic registration is a recipe for mistakes and fraudulent voter registration lists
Showing ID to cast a ballot is not onerous
Your state doesn’t give drivers licenses to undocumented?
Every state has a different process for automatic voter registration. Why would Democrats want to exclude undocumented from registration? Democrats want to win even if they have to cheat

We aren't the ones cheating, it's the Republicans that are by gerrymandering districts to a point where the courts are making them redraw districts, they're shutting down polling places specifically in areas that vote Democrat, requiring you possess an ID (which costs money to obtain in a majority of states, making it a poll tax) to vote, and the ones being convicted of voter fraud and election crimes are those on the conservative right last time I checked. Oh, and we didn't try to violently overthrow the electoral count when we lose, either.
