Trump to Sign Voter ID Executive Order
President Donald Trump says he plans to sign an executive order aimed at requiring voter ID in elections across the country.Trump made the statement on social media late Saturday night, saying he is also seeking other reforms to how U.S. elections take place.
"Voter I.D. Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!! Also, No Mail-In Voting, Except For Those That Are Very Ill, And The Far Away Military. USE PAPER BALLOTS ONLY!" Trump wrote on Truth Social.
Trump previously attempted to impose voter ID via an executive order earlier this year in a wider election integrity action but Clinton appointed Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia struck down the portions of that order that related to voter identification requirements.
The vast majority of voters support voter ID.

So common sense! The left hates law and Order! Maga
Once you make things easy, you can never make them more difficult again. It just doesn't work.
@7:05...what exactly is difficult about showing an ID? We do it in Florida. No big deal. Only Democrats are opposed.
I don't show my ID to anyone when I mail in vote.
@7:35...Trump's order will eliminate mail in votes.
What about the military and the disabled or sick? There are a lot of those in Florida.
You show your ID when you apply for mail-in voting. I have been doing Mail-in Voting for about 20 years now. I doubt if that will change. I hate to tell you that once you do mail in voting, you are not going back to the polls.
@8:07 and 8:09...you didn't red what Trump said: "Voter I.D. Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!! Also, No Mail-In Voting, Except For Those That Are Very Ill, And The Far Away Military. USE PAPER BALLOTS ONLY!" Trump wrote on Truth Social.
I hope they end early voting, too. Everyone show up on one day, show ID and use paper ballots only that are counted by hand. No electronics, either. All results must be securely transmitted in person by election officials by the end of Election Day. It's the only way to have secure elections.
Make Election Day a holiday or do it on the weekend what’s the problem
You seem to forget: Trump is the President; he is not a dictator. Just because he says something, doesn't mean it will magically happen. And just as an aside: Think of the increased number of people they would have to hire to work at the polls. All of those people get paid you know. You may have been a poll worker yourself at one time. It's not the easiest job in the world, but the pay is decent for retired people.
Where is your patriotism! Better to vote in person!
Right, Sundays with paper ballot and your fingerprint! That is how they do it in many countries!
Patriotism is like Religion! The more you talk about it, the less you adhere to it!
