Al, here is the article, but it doesn't say anything specific about the required documentation itself (nor does it even have a reference to the "study" involved): articles.chicagotribune.com My question is why eligible citizens don't have documentation, not whether voter ID laws are unnecessarily harsh on those citizens who, for example, choose not to get driver's licenses. I do agree that said voter ID laws should not make it overly complicated to register. Just a simple, inexpensive way to keep track of who voted. It's a little too paranoid to say, "Oh we're going after voter fraud" if it isn't happening that much (though it does happen, contrary to the juvenile claims of SilentCJ). But again, I have to ask why citizens don't have the proper documentation, especially naturalized citizens who had to go through an extensive process in order to become naturalized in the first place.
