I can’t see the older women who staff this place asking me to prove my citizenship.

. . .and while we normally confirm name, residence, and voting district (with a board-of-elections officlal around as back-up if need be), we've NEVER asked for proof of citizenship. That is a given.

Wouldn’t that be more likely to affect conservatives and evangelicals than liberal, more independent minded women?

They don’t care if the women who aren’t allowed to vote are conservative or liberal.
