Does anyone here buy the claim that requiring photo ID is “voter suppression”?

Don’t get me wrong, I love the convenience of voting by mail, but if I had to walk or drive my ass to the polling station and show my ID, that’s what I would do.

That's the intention even if it fails.

You should drive your ass through the Mississippi delta and see how easy it is for folks down there to get a new driver's license, much less get to their polling place.

Are you ordering me to do this? It seems like we’re on the same side here.

I have waited in many a very long line to renew mine just like everyone else.

I'll ask a question in return, bammer:

Does the requirement make it easier to vote?

There's an answer to this that doesn't include getting rid of ID requirements. Voter suppression does exist (though it's tremendously overstated), but its not because of ID requirements, something which is the norm everywhere else on earth.
Yes I am talking about ID requirements.

Ok so put at least X polling places per zip code. Or X per every XX people within a X mile radius.

I am talking about ID.

But you can't talk about ID requirements as if they're a value-neutral policy without taking into consideration the underlying infrastructure. Or rather--sure, it's not the voter ID requirement that's the problem, it's the time and money associated with getting an ID, making sure it's up-to-date, and then supplying it in person on election day. But then the requirement becomes the node at which this unequally distributed burden is felt.
