Trump's election bill tops 50 Senate votes, but Democrats could still block it

35. I hope Democratic think tanks are working on ways to help people get legitimate IDs if needed.

While others can be impacted, it disproportionately affects married women who changed their name and who do not have real ID or a passport.

This is extremely. undemocratic and will prevent many eligible people from voting. However, it might not be as helpful to Republicans as is assumed.

a) Although women vote for Democrats at a higher rate, the BIGGEST difference is for single women when women are further broken down by married and single.

b) using a different breakdown, we do better with younger women. I have no data, but just looking at friends and family, i suspect that younger women are less likely to take their husband's name.

C) in past elections, it was often noted that Democrats were far more likely to have passports.

For those reasons, it may be that Republicans will have a common interest with Democrats in fixing this.

The state could create a "citizenship" id in their name of choice with an easy process using their existing documents such as birth certificates and marriage certificates.

At least in some states, the marriage certificate includes the place of birth for both.
