To vote, all you had to do was state your address and name and as long as that name and address was on the records you can vote (as long as no one else had already voted that name/address). So I needed an ID to drink but not to vote.
But as I listen to current events, many state that it is an imposition to require someone to get an ID to vote.
Then why can't I state the same relative to buying a bottle of wine?
