In the age of computers, one cannot track who is who??!!! BS. Forget to pay alimony? BAM Forget to pay back taxes? BAM Newt is right when he llustrates how FEDEX tracks several million MOVING packages a day and the gov cannot track millions of static people. In the 1980’s INS would show up at a factory with computer print outs and nail illegal immigrant workers so well that the factory owners had to call their Congressman to put a stop to the practice. Today with wireless access and computer data, we cannot catch illegals working and voting???!!!!

Some people overestimate how ‘smart’ our government can be, especially with managing data. Only very recently did our various states band together to share DNA database information on felons, for example.
Here is another example...say my uncle were to die, and he lived in a different precinct than mine. What stops me from voting in my precinct, and then casually driving over to his pricinct, and voting again. I can do that until the end of time (or at least until I die and my nephew starts voting for my corpse), and nobody will ever detect it. If you know the name of a dead person on the rolls, you’re in.
Voter ID solves all of this, since I look nothing like my uncle.
