It's pretty silly to argue that these laws are aimed only to preventing fraud and the like and it's gotten to the point that some Republicans don't even bother to argue this (see krazen's post.) The way people like Franzl react completely miss the point, sure it'd probably be better if the US switched to a European-style system of universal registration and ID cards given out then, but where have the Republicans proposed this? It's quite obvious it's aimed at blocking people like minorities and college students from voting with this and things like abolishing same day registration as well.
If the Republicans really want to take the moral high ground, why not propose universal registration? But we know that's never going to happen.
