Voting registration. I get a letter that I can vote and what the options are. Then on voting day, which is on a Sunday, because why would it be on any other day, I just walk into my town hall with that letter and my ID card, put down my crosses and leave. It's like a walk in the park, often quite literally.
ID card? But what about non-white people? /s
Oh, right, isn't that another oddity with the US, that not everyone has an ID card? Searching the internet tells me there is no such thing as a general ID card in the US. 🙃
Over here, everyone who's eligible for voting (adult citizens) also has an ID card.
Federal government started verifying identities, allowing people to get Real ID driver's licenses, which are basically federal IDs
We have ID cards but most people just get their driver's license.
