The thing about the ID got me thinking, though. When I went to vote this afternoon (Maryland), I wasn't asked for any identification. I just gave my name, they looked me up in the list of registered voters and I had to sign a slip of paper saying I'm who I am. I wonder if it varies by state?

Actually, it varies from polling place to polling place. LEGALLY, you can be asked for identification at any polling place, at any time - whether you're voting or campaigning or poll watching.
The polling place where I grew up was run VERY strictly, so I'm always surprised when I'm not asked for id or such.
God bless those crotchety old people! A lot of them are my clients! Geriatric = $$$ for me!
