2. We are already asking the poor to participate in something that really

doesn't appear to make any difference in their lives. We are asking them to walk or take a bus, wait in line, etc. The poor already have very low rates of participation in voting. Any DUer who doesn't get how unfair it is to expect people who don't drive to have to do something to vote that all the driving voters don't have to do is an ignoramus.
