The wife had a Colorado driver's license back in the early 90's, when we moved to Colorado recently, she had to jump through some hoops with her new last name. While a pain in ***, the paper trail is there.
A quick AI search produced this:
Approximately 1 in 10 (roughly 11% or over 20 million) adult U.S. citizens do not have a current, government-issued photo ID, according to voter ID studies by the Brennan Center for Justice and VoteRiders. Data suggests 2.6 million people (about 1%) lack any form of government-issued photo ID entirely, while others have ID that does not meet strict state requirements.
You have to know a hundred people. How many of them are sad sack losers that do not have ID?

Demographic Disparities: The lack of ID is disproportionately higher among Black adults (21%), Hispanic adults (23%), and transgender people (68%).

A state ID is enough. You don't have to board a plane to vote. MAYBE some dude in alaska - but he has his own plane and the lake is his airport.Fuelman » 10 Feb 2026, 4:32 pm » wrote: ↑ Barriers to Access: Roughly 15-18 million adults do not have easy access to necessary documentation like birth certificates or citizenship documents, hindering their ability to obtain an ID.
Regional & Economic Factors: Roughly 39% of individuals with annual incomes under $30,000 do not have a license with their current name/address.
Real ID Status: In some states, fewer than 70% of residents have a compliant Real ID, and in some, that rate is less than 50%.
EXACTLY the people we don't want voting.Fuelman » 10 Feb 2026, 4:32 pm » wrote: ↑ Those at the highest risk of lacking ID include low-income individuals, racial minorities, seniors, and students.
Someone tell me what the problem is.
When you complain, ur friends roll their eyes and ur enemies rejoice
"Because I SAY I am" is a todler's tantrum, not "science"
You cannot betray me - only yourself, to me.

If gender is not sex, why should a gender claim change what sex you shower with?
