My brother in Christ, I once pored over Kris Kobach's office records when he was Kansas's attorney general, and over the course of fifteen years he found less than ten cases of it affecting even fewer votes. That's a dude who built his entire career on the specter of voter fraud and even he couldn't prove its existence.
Those records may still be on the ACLU's website for public consumption if you want to do the same.
Voter fraud doesn't exist, and pretending it does is getting sillier by the day.
Disenfranchisement is an invalid solution to a problem that effectively does not exist.
Nothing disenfranchising about unlinking 2 completely different systems that really shouldn't have been linked to begin with. Licensing drivers and voting together automatically doesn't make sense if you're granting licenses to those who aren't eligible to vote...
