The should just make getting an ID card cheaper or free once per decade or something. A long list of reasons why people cannot properly ID themselves just seems like governmental failure to me.

A national ID card is the sane option, but many are afraid it will lead to further government overreach. Mostly I've heard that national ID cards are the first step in a national gun registry, which (they argue) inevitably leads to firearm bans and seizures.

Put an ID booth in every post office and DMV, make them free or means-adjusted. Easy peasy. There would still be some people who fall through the cracks, but it should be fewer.

Yeah, I don't know if those people not voting is nessecarily a bad thing. They can choose, get an ID and vote or have the librulz decide without you.
