      With all the new anti-voting laws, what percentage of young people can actually register to vote? Do they have valid ID? Can they get it? My grandmother died years ago, but she managed to make it 97 years without ever owning a photo ID. She didn’t drive, but she had a voter card and the bank knew her by sight as well as signature. In today’s world, I’m pretty sure she’d be disqualified from voting.

      They are, but they are holding the numbers ransom to see whose camp pays more to either have them released or suppress them.
