dont they understand that in their own argument that will cause fraud?
Well yes they do.
They just know there is no fruad and all the evidence proves it, they also know fewer people vote when you require more hoops to jump through.
They only want that hoop in the way when its a real elections because they know more democratic voters will have trouble jumping through that hoop.

Republicans Require No Photo ID To Vote In Republican Iowa Caucus
Of course...it's just the latest example of that well known Rightie mantra being put to work in real life situations:
Do as I say and NOT as I do!
They demand those EEEEEEVIL Liberals be required to show Government ID...but not voters taking part in today's caucuses.
I'm predicting Romney 30, Paul 23, Santorum 22. Romney will pick up a plurality of the undecideds, whereas Paul has reached his high watermark (unfortunately).
Poor people can get IDs as well. Here in NM a state issued ID costs 5 dollars for 5 years and 8 dollars for 10 years. California charges 23 bucks, BUT if you are poor it costs 7. Here's a site for all 50 states. www.thepiratescove.us/2008/04/28/what-does-a-state-id-cost/they are poorer.
Its why the republicans target poor people to disenfranchise voters.
More poor people vote democratic.

So NOW what's the problem?
Voter ID cards are free.Voting should be free and easy. Adding requirements that cost money makes it not free and not easy.

Do you believe anyone and everyone should be allowed to vote? What about age requirements? Felons? Illegals?
