Perhaps we could compromise by using the Mexican system to elect our president. In that, the candidate with the most votes wins, but every voter must show a photo ID proving their citizenship and eligibility to vote. Democrats get a popular vote. GOP gets voter ID. Sounds like a good compromise to me!
I could support that idea as well, despite my general strong stance against voter ID. If we established such a system with time to spare and had a strong proactive government to ensure everyone has easy access to free voter ID, I could accept some of the provisions that those on the right would like. The right gets voter ID, but we make it so that it is free and the government is proactive is giving it to all eligible voters. With that in place, there's not a reason for the right to oppose early voting, same-day registration, or automatic voter registration.
