With my incongruent government ID--kind of forcible in this state if you haven't had any surgeries--I was almost not allowed to vote, and my vote may be thrown out as "fraudulent." Sort of like how, sans legalized same-sex marriage, I can't marry <i>anyone.</i> And it's funny--I might not be allowed to vote on that! Damn right voter suppression is a trans issue.
