    Your “presentation” not matching your ID is not an issue. You can show up in full clown costume and your ID will still be valid. Just bring your fucking ID and vote. It’s not hard. Americans are fucking idiots.

      Your “presentation” not matching your ID is not an issue.

      Should it be? No. But it’s an issue in some places for some people every election, because some poll workers hopped up on Fox News think the gender section in the ID not saying what they think it should say means voter fraud is happening.

      As the article goes on to say, trans people vote at a higher rate than cis people, and that’s in spite of potential access issues at the poll.

      “Just pay for an ID and then go through the extra steps at the polls when your vote gets challenged!”

      Non-Americans are ignorant of our system and show their naïveté when they try to comment on it
