I understand some states have provisional voting in the case when someone presents they're eligible to vote but the information does not jive with the rolls, but those votes are not supposed to be counted unless things get matched up. If you are implying some precints in Texas and elsewhere count the provisional ballots anyway then that's a state issue. In the case of Texas, a solid red state issue and not a democratic trick as was implied.

Lurker got it right, the time to prove eligibility to vote is at registration and registration drives at the local store is just too fraught with potential for abuse.

No NO...... I typed it wrong or you took it wrong. DL alone doesn't get you into a voting booth........ you get registared when you get your DL....... lots of unqualified folks have DL........... meaning lots of non citizens have DL - also I just wonder about the legality of our votersand yours as well...... not the legality of the voting booths. I think don't thinkTHAT kind of voter fraud is happening ( Look still had to edit cause I still can't type right!!), I don't think votes get bought or strong armed. I think we are victims of our own demise when it comes to voting. Sorry for the confusion
