At A Glance

  • As many as 203,700 transgender Americans who are eligible to vote in this year’s general election could face barriers to voting because of stringent voter ID laws, according to new research from the Williams Institute.
  • About 414,000 voting-eligible transgender Americans live in the 31 states that primarily conduct their elections in person at the polls and have a voter ID law. Nearly half of transgender voters in those states do not have an ID that correctly reflects their name or gender.
  • Of voting-eligible transgender people who live in states with voter ID requirements, 64,800 live in the states with the strictest voter ID laws, according to the Williams Institute.

Here in Connecticut it is very easy to get your IDs changed, some states are very hard to change your IDs, and in other states it is impossible!

As many as 203,700 transgender Americans who are eligible to vote in this year’s general election could face barriers to voting because of stringent voter ID laws, the Williams Institute said Thursday in a report, including nearly 65,000 that live in states where photo identification is required at the polls.

The Republicans know what they are doing, they know the most trans people vote Democratic so they get two birds with one stone. They harass us and keep us from voting.

“Voter ID laws may create barriers to voting for substantial numbers of voting-eligible transgender people, which is particularly notable in elections that are decided by a few votes,” she said.

The Big Lie is all about controlling voters there was no voter fraud!
