I've been voting by signing a register since I was 18. The process was not broken and worked fine. To introduce barriers (anything, even miniscule) will lower the overall voter base and, worse, will have an unbalanced impact demographically.
If I was say, a Tump, I would be in favor of this. If I was reading the spirit of the Constitution, I would be insulted and appalled. In order for a true Democracy to work, we need more voters - not less.
There are elderly people who never had a birth certificate. What's to figure out? These people exist but their birth was never recorded. An older family member vouched for them to get a drivers license &/or to marry. If you can't figure out that there are people who have valid problems coming up with the proof then maybe you should stop & think.
My father would have been 90 today and I have seen his birth certificate. These people you speak about with no papers how old are they? You gotta be kiddin' me.

My aunt was born at home in Texas in 1925. Only the state was not previously posted..do the math.
There's been plenty of time since the concept of Voter ID became an issue and people could have been working on getting the doc's or whatever is needed together to obtain their ID. But no, it seems people sat on their butts and did nothing but complain.
Enough of this "woe is me" crap and let's get it done.
Absofreakinlutely! You only need two documents to get your NC ID. Two documents! Heck, my 18 month old child already has the two required documents to get an NC ID.

And you child was born in 2014, NOT 1944. Older people have less documents like that, because they weren't needed as much.

My mother was born in 1917 -- she has no trouble at all providing two documents. History didn't begin the day you were born!
