Yes - what about vote by fingerprint? National database of eligible voters/citizens. One vote per person - and only citizens vote. Easy. Everyone has one. Can't argue voter suppression because it is "so hard" to get an ID. Drawback - national database of fingerprints. Do we want that? Or would that be a good thing for law-abiding citizens?

There is a national database, everyone gets hand printed and feet printed when they are born in the US. As an adult you may also get fingerprinted eventually for a job or some other reason, like traveling these days or whatever. Anyway it's not necessary.
It should not be a burden on citizens to vote, it should be a burden on ineligible/illegal voters. We already have IDs and citizens can be identified easily. It is the illegal non-citizens that can slip through the cracks every time and now we know it's "by design."
The high risk illegal voters are the those who are here illegally to begin with, receive benefits and live in sanctuary areas. They are creatively documented, they should be the ones who do get documented the proper way. If someone is here on asylum, fine, mark "Asylum" on their ID. This craziness needs to stop. Having 30-50 million illegals around is too much.
It also cuts resources and chances for lawful immigration, we have less for those who we actually want to immigrate. Legal immigrants/lawful permanent residents are unlikely to vote, green card holders follow the law to begin with, they are not going to risk their good standing, they jump through many hoops and it takes 5-15 years for them to become citizens if not more.
We must simply stop catering to one sided illegal immigration from the south, they are turning this country into countries where they came from. We must extradite those who do not come through entry points and we should document and allow in those who do, as long as they stay out of trouble. Of course there has to be a crackdown on employers who employ these people without paperwork.
Although, it may be a bit too late.
Voter suppression doesn't exist, it relates to women votes and black votes in a historical context and is totally moot. In fact it's pretty racist and discriminative of Democrats to taunt anyone with their "voter supression" bullshit, but they use it at double speak. Voter suppression today is a call for illegals to vote, it's nothing more then inciting criminal activity. Rant over.
