75. You have to have a mail box to receive an absentee ballot.
And it's common knowledge that everyone in this Country needs to have identification proving their Citizenship or Legal Residency.

What the hell is this supposed to mean?

There are many laws in California where I live requiring people to put out their own money to fulfill a law. Auto Insurance is one of them and there are any more. Either you get the insurance, or you don't drive, it's that simple. I don't like it any more than anyone else but that's the way it is.

Driving is a privilege, not a right. Voting is a protected right under California state law.

I am more concerned about Voter Fraud and what goes along with it than I am about people that should have seen something like this coming and should have gotten their act together a long time ago. Requiring people to prove their Citizenship is just another important step to clean up fraud.

Why are you concerned about voter fraud? Where is your evidence that voter fraud is a problem? Why do you wish to disenfrachise everyone who can't "get their act together"? Is this really a reasonable response to a problem that doesn't exist except in your fevered imagination?

Try going to any other Country, such as Canada, for instance. You will be required to prove Citizenship.

Bullshit.
