Same in my little corner of Fort Worth.

Funny story, several years ago,(I guess it was the 2012 primary) I was at our local polling place actually on the primary election day. The democrat line was empty, republican line had about 20 people in it with about 10 more currently voting. I filled in my ballot (not machines for some reason that time). I headed for some scanner machines along the nearest wall, and the worker behind the democrat table stopped me and said that the Republican machines were over there. I turned and asked, "Why... y'all got these rigged up to vote twice automatically?"

The place erupted in laughter... like to the point that I was kind of nervous that I would get in trouble. I am sure that the other voters in the room (All over 50) loved seeing a guy in his late 20's have the democrats figured out already.

When they can manipulate the numbers electronically (and if you think that doing so is impossible, you are delusional)... then requiring ID is just a little pointless.

Besides, how well do you think that poll workers are checking IDs in the precincts that we are worried about anyhow? Who do you think works the polls? Hard-core right wingers who take off work all day for the two weeks of early voting? Conservative stay-at-home moms with little kids? I don't think so.

If voting accomplished anything, they would outlaw it.
