You're right on the assumption, but this isn't the first time I've seen a post on LTC being offered as ID, I'm fairly certain not everyone who has done so has no DL. And I do understand saying no to a search of your vehicle, but sorry the comparison is just not there. There's a very valid legal reason to refuse a search of your vehicle even when you have nothing to hide, outside of just exercising your rights (even if that is why you do it).Soccerdad1995 wrote:Serious assumption that folks drove to the polling place, especially those saying that they voted at the same time as their spouse.jadoti wrote:Just out of curiosity, why is this a concern/issue?

But for me, the answer to this question is similar to the answer of why I do not consent to a "quick" search of my vehicle even though I have nothing to hide. If you have to ask, then I'm guessing I won't be able to convince you of my position on an internet message board.
But, like I said, I was just curious. I gather "because I can" is the dominant reason, and that's fine too. I just thought there might have been some perceived benefit I was missing, like using your LTC when buying a handgun to skip the background check.
