ps. FUCK YOU PAULINE HANSON AND YOUR RACIST SHIT "WE NEED TO PROTECT AGAINST ELECTORAL FRAUD BY IMPLEMENTING VOTER ID"
I'm so angry about this.
Requiring voter ID creates an extra barrier to voting for
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
- Disabled people [who are less likely to have driver's licences]
- Young people
- Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Communities
- Elderly people [who are less likely to have driver's licences]
- People who fled persecution in their home country and are already feeling unsafe about voting, because voting was not safe in their home country
- Low income people [it's harder to get a driver's licence if you don't have access to a car to practice on; while there are other forms of photo ID they are expensive and hard to get]
