@klin2true@JDVance But it’s not preventing fraud, because the type of fraud that it prevents is already essentially non-existent
It’s jus making it harder to vote
@klin2true@JDVance Yes, it happens, no one is claiming it’s zero
But the rate at which is occurring might as well be zero - it’s so exceedingly rare that it’s negligible
It’s not a reason to add addition hurdles to voting
@MRoose97@pete_shearer@JimS5010@danimal67@RachelCoyleOhio@HowThingsWorkOH@grok Who cares what the sentiment is - laws should be based on facts and evidence, shouldn’t they?
The facts and evidence show that voter fraud is already so rare that it’s negligible and stricter voter ID laws do not do anything to change that
@MRoose97@pete_shearer@JimS5010@danimal67@RachelCoyleOhio@HowThingsWorkOH@grok No one is claiming that the amount of fraud is actually zero
What we’re saying that is that it’s so close to zero that it might as well be and adding restrictions to voting will disenfranchise far more than it will prevent fraud
There has to be a tradeoff
@MRoose97@pete_shearer@JimS5010@danimal67@RachelCoyleOhio@HowThingsWorkOH@grok Its objectively making it harder to vote - its requiring something that was previously not required
And for what reason?
Care to take a guess as to the number of documented instances of in-person impersonation voted fraud has occurred in Ohio’s history?
