The solution to the voter rights issue is right before our eyes. Instead of each state hashing out its personal biased voting rights situations, we should adopt a basic national system of voting.

All we have to do is to copy what our fellow North American neighbors already have in place. Adopt a system that requires an identification card or process, just as Mexico and Canada currently have in place.

Anyone can Google each nation’s requirements for voting and find out that both require prepared picture identification cards, with Canada allowing some additional modifications but still a legal identity procedure. There doesn’t seem to be any controversy in either of the countries.

Let’s apply a little common sense for once and adopt a national system that is consistent with what works in our neighboring countries.
