the harder it will be for right wingers to vote, too. This is one time when education is going to matter. I have documents to prove my citizenship, and have had them pretty much all my life. On the other hand, I know some hard-core Republicans who have nothing like that. I listened to one of them complain that they couldn't get a Real ID, after trying for months. This person did not even know the name of the town he had been born in. It's difficult to get a birth certificate if you don't know where you were born. Almost impossible, really. Someone knew it, of course, but that person is no longer alive.

All of this is going to hit people in much the same way. Get your documents together, if you haven't already done so. Help others to get theirs, too.
