Rejected petition Proof of citizenship and photo ID should be mandatory in order to vote!

We believe that in order to be able to vote in all elections and referenda, proof of citizenship and photo ID should be mandatory.
This would stop people from voting who are ineligible to do so.
Only registered, qualifying citizens should be allowed to vote.

In addition, it would help put an end to voter fraud which is widespread in some communities.
Mandatory proof of citizenship and photo ID in order to vote!
Nothing less will do.
