Our courts are doing what they can. Enforcement is being delayed/thwarted by a government full of racists, xenophobes, and their supporters. Enforcement is hindered by the fact that the Trump admin. has abandoned our Constitution for fascism.

You have to show ID to register to vote, if you are in a state that doesn't require it at the polls, you still have to say who the hell you are, and then it all has to all match up.
People pretending illegals are voting are not only dishonest, but they are useful idiots.

I've been seeing a lot of people disparaging democracy as a failure. It has not failed us. We however as a nation have been failing it.
For it to succeed, it needs an engaged and informed populace. Which is why those who want power but not responsibility, attack Free speech and public education
