Mark Theofanides: Voting should require ID

OK what is wrong with the editors at the Sun-Star. I take exception to the "Our View" ("Protecting right to vote still important") in Monday's paper.

You cannot do much in this country without showing identification. But you at the Sun-Star think that we should give away or devalue the right to vote.

There are too many out there that would like to sway the vote one way or the other. What is wrong with being able to prove who you are before you can vote?

If you think that it is too hard to get an ID then change that -- just don't give away the vote.
