I'm sure it won't be that hard to find some solution for this
By the way, it's basically a poll tax if you require money or documents that cost money or anything that costs money to be able to vote. I disagree with poll taxes don't you?

Then why not take the birth certificate requirement away for everything it is currently required for just in case it might cost a poor person a few bucks? Or are saying this should only apply to registering to vote.
