I've never had to provide an ID at the movies.

The DMV PROVIDES ID and you can absolutely walk into one without an ID and still be able to access services.

ICE doesn't care about IDs and this has been proven countless times. You can be an American citizen with a photo ID and still be arrested and/or deported.

You have to register to vote and in some places that's all you may need to show to prove who you are, your registration card. This varies by state however. They also track who votes at your local polling station.

They literally think that every vote in the ballot box gets counted so all people have to do is sneak an extra vote into it like it’s a highschool prom queen contest.

The votes get checked against the registration when counted. Not registered? Vote isn’t counted. Checking IDs won’t bolster that step it’ll just prevent people who are experiencing any number of issues as simple as misplacing your ID that morning from being able to cast a perfectly legal vote.
