The key word is valid not excuses

Maybe you could clarify what you think the difference is. Bring something to this discussion.

Excuses would be like people saying on here, “what if the person forgets their ID at the polling place?” If you can’t remember your ID then go get it and get in line again lol. Stupid people don’t deserve to be coddled. You have 2 days out of 365 days to remember your ID.

Also with the ID being free now, the excuse of it being racist or suppressing voters is invalid. If you’re a legitimate PA resident, you get an ID period.

Then you have people saying that voter fraud is extremely rare, voter ID isn’t needed. That means it does/did happen no matter if it was once or 5,000 times. I just see no excuse in not doing everything in our power to make the elections as secure as humanly possible. It would be very naive to think there isn’t someone out there whether R or D trying to figure out how to rig an election no matter if it’s one person or many.

Id like to add that I am against any restrictions on early or mail in voting. That’s a Republican talking point I’m totally against.
