Yup. Give your name and they look you up. That's it.
In DC a few election cycles back, one of the Project Veritas guys walked into a voting precinct and said he was Eric Holder - then, the Attorney General. No problem, waved right in. He almost immediately fessed up, because that is a crime - but the polling place person had no intention of verifying him.

They were at the provisional/same day registration table.

The law says that's all they can do.

Used for same day registration, to receive a real ID you had to provide birth cert and proof of address which you need to register.

Okay, I see that. I will never understand why an ID is not required when you vote, seems to me it just one of many avenues to use for cheating.

Just scanning the ID would be easier with people mumbling, accents, strange spellings and hyphenated names. You can also become a poll worker in your precinct where you know most people.

You get around, doncha?
I'm a come-downer. I've been here 50 years, but still considered an outsider. You gotta love the ass backwards 7D. I've still never been asked to present an ID to vote.
I've been here 33 years and married 7D. My voting is at Hollywood ES, where my daughter went to school K-5, so the other locals and I have been around each other in some way or another.
You say there was so much fraud...yet only one person got reward money from Lt. Gov Dan Patrick's bounty program. And it was a republican who committed the fraud. So much projection!!

Report: Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick hands out first voter fraud reward
A Pennsylvania poll worker received Patrick's first $25,000 after he provided evidence of alleged voter fraud by a registered Republican.
I can’t get to the full report. Was it one guy voting more than once - or was it the truck driver who delivered tens of thousands of ballots already filled out, who drove to PA from NY?You say there was so much fraud...yet only one person got reward money from Lt.

Because the fraud that matters is the kind like traveling around town dumping ballots in drop boxes by the thousands.
Voting machine printer company says Maricopa Election Day report 'inaccurate,' seeks correction
Ballot printer issues at more than 70 vote centers in the county on Election Day last year resulted in long lines because tabulator machines could not read some of the voters' ballots.
The county commissioned former Arizona Supreme Court Chief Justice Ruth McGregor to investigate the matter and write a report, which directed some of the blame on Japan-based printer company Oki Electric Industry Co.
The report, which was released in April, found that between the August primaries and the November general contest last year, the county expanded the length of ballots from 19 to 20 inches to include all of the required information for the races.
The increased ballot size in combination with the use of 100-pound ballot paper, the report concludes, was too great a strain on the printers.
“We concluded that the combined effect of using 100-pound ballot paper and a 20-inch ballot during the 2022 general election was to require that the Oki B432 printers perform at the extreme edge of their capability, a level that could not be reliably sustained by a substantial number of printers,” the report reads.
OKI responded late last month to the report by saying it was never contacted by county officials and investigation teams working on their behalf. Furthermore, the company said, neither election services providers nor "any other parties associated with the investigation" contacted OKI.
The company said it would not provide a response to "each issue raised in the report," but would respond to three specific statements, which are "factually inaccurate."
In addition, the company argues in its response that "all of these inaccuracies would have been avoided had the investigatory team simply contacted OKI in advance of the report's release."
County officials did not respond to a request from Just the News to address OKI's statements.

Not so fast, Thats a Federal Law for First Time Voters.
When you register to vote or vote for the first time in a federal election (Presidential or Congressional elections) in your state, you must prove who you are.
After that one needs to show NO ID to Vote in Maryland.

That was they were used for, first time voters, not the regular voters. When you get your DL you also must prove to the state who you are and where you live. Scanning just confirms it for registration. You are correct that showing ID is not required for the vast majority of voters in Maryland,.

The Maryland mail in ballots are all scanned in. You fill out the ballot by filling in the circles next to the candidate you want to vote for. Nobody is sitting there and transcribing your ballot. I will agree that mail ins can and are damaged by the postal process. I would advocate for all mail-in ballots to be returned to voter boxes that are all over the place. Even then, it could be subject to damage.
As for the scanning process, I don't really care. If I want to influence an election to either side, my program needs to be put into the machines that tally the votes. I don't care at all about the precinct scanning process. All I would need to do is get my algorithm into the computer that is counting the votes. And if it is a presidential election, I don't even need to worry about Maryland, that's a lost cause. The states I want my algorithm in operation are those that will be within 0-2 percentage points. Those I can flip with the right planning. With the polarization of America today, that means simply getting into about 10 states, maybe less. Three states decided the difference between Trump and Clinton, and those three states removed decided that Trump would lose his bid for re-election.
