A valid address establishes residency, you wouldn't want people from another state to vote in an election in your state would you? Just visualize Occupiers roaming the country to vote in tight district races. Get it now?
It doesn’t matter if they do or don’t. They have a right to regardless of their living situation, don’t they? However I am really surprised you would make that argument.
The argument I'm making is actually quite simple, and it is one that can be applied to a variety of topics you folks on the left try to implement. In this case, if you have a problem like homelessness, instead of focusing on how a law intended to protect the integrity of the election system from non-citizens and people claiming to be someone other than themselves may actually inconvenience an extreme minority of people who have much bigger problems like not having a roof over their head, you guys want to throw the baby out with the bathwater and attack the whole law. This is essentially the crux of the whole transgender discussion. Make millions uncomfortable because you're concerned with a few psychologically "off" people using a restroom because they "identify" with having a different sex organ than what they were born with. Everyone else has to make due because you want total and complete inclusion to all possible ideas. Of course, everyone here knows this is about trying to keep voter ID laws as loose as possible to provide an opportunity for Democrats to capitalize.
