The group I stayed with in West Virginia (back to lander hippies basically) only had driver license, which to my understanding, is not a valid voting ID (it isn't a proof of citizenship), so they cannot vote (Lincoln county, WV). Some are a bit mad about it, most don't care.

"Things that might work for other purposes" != "An ID your State government is guaranteed to accept with the new rules they want to impose."

I don't live in the USA to be able to name people, you have 350 million people, there's definitely enough to have gone through life without doing any of the stuff you mentioned, barring them from voting is antithetical to democratic values. It's very simple probabilities, there's a non-zero number of people that will be affected.

On top of that, making vote more difficult through technicalities (voter roll purges, increased friction to vote, increased uncertainty if one can vote and will be punished if not eligible due to a technicality, etc.) further tilts the scale of who votes or not, either being barred by technicalities or fear.

None of that has any place in a real democracy, if democratic values are to be uphold it should be as easy as possible for any eligible voter to exercise their vote if they so wish.

You want anecdotes to fight against statistics, I think you got stuff reversed there, mate...

Edit: ah, lol, I think I need to repeat your own words back to you:

> This is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_ignorance and is also asking someone else to prove nonexistence of a situation.

There are literally dozens of links in these threads showing how wrong you are.

>Name one person who can legally vote but was prevented from voting from this.

Literally thousands of people were barred to vote by last-minute voting roll purges. Virginia, Georgia...
