I have no issues with Showing my driver's license at the Poons. Here in New York, at 
least when you go to get your driver's license or your real ID license Do you have the 
option of signing up to vote. When I went to get mine, I did. I got my voter registration 
and I was 50 years old. Which was two years ago. :) Unfortunately I wish I had Register 
to vote when I became of legal age to do so. I guess the reason why I didn't is because I 
always thought that my vote didn't count.

I must be sensible then, because I totally agree with you 100% as well
