2) Simply put, this type of voter fraud does not happen. The coordination required to make this type of fraud feasible is what prevents it from happening. It's easy to detect and hard to execute. Someone from your group is also likely to sing.
There are only rare cases that this is even suspected of happening. In exchange for protecting against a dozen or so suspected cases over 16 years, you're disenfranchising millions of Americans.

Yeah I know all about your ID stuff and I'm not gonna comment on that because it's cray cray to me
So you are basically saying yeah paper voting is fine without ID because it is sooooo hard to walk around to different stations.
Well ... Okay then ... I am starting to understand your election season better
