Essay claim: Requiring <em><u>voters</u></em> to <u><em>present picture</em></u> identification <u><em>reduces</em></u> voter participation.
<em><u>Many</u></em> people <u><em>lack</em></u> photo identification. Requiring <em><u>picture identification to vote would keep those without</u></em> it from voting. Elderly <em><u>people who no longer drive and people </u></em>who <em><u>live </u></em>in<em><u> low-income</u></em> areas often <em><u>lack</u></em> identification. They would be <em><u>unable</u></em> to vote. Mark Abernathy <u><em>argues</em></u>, "Requiring photo ID to vote <em><u>effectively</u></em> eliminates a <em><u>large group</u></em> of American voters. <em><u>However</u></em>, they are denied a basic <em><u>privilege given to all Americans over the age of 18</u></em>. A <em><u>part</u></em> of the population, not the entire population, <em><u>decides</u></em> elections" <em><u>" (page 820 of the article "Photo Identification Disenfranchisement").</u></em> Some <u><em>believe</em></u> this <em><u>isn't </u></em>true. Ria Olberson <em><u>of</u></em> Alabaster University <em><u>says</u></em>, "Few Americans <em><u>lack</u></em> a license. Even <em><u>an</u></em> expired or revoked license <em><u>counts as photo identification.</u></em> The<em><u> idea</u></em> that requiring <em><u>identification disenfranchises some Americans is </u></em>simply <em><u>false</u></em> " (page 101). Just just wrong! <em><u>Many people don't have licenses because they</u></em> don't need or <em><u>desire</u></em> them. Consider <em><u>city dwellers</u></em>. They <em><u>don't need</u></em> licenses: public transportation. <em><u>Many</u></em> of <em><u>these</u></em> people would <em><u>have</u></em> to <em><u>get</u></em> licenses in <em><u>order to participate in a process</u></em> <em><u>that they are entitled </u></em>to<em> </em>as <em><u>U.S.</u></em> citizens.
The first two lines in this excerpt from "A Grain of Sand" by Frances Ellen Watkins indicate its subject, which is the very grain of sand. In the first line it is mentioned explicitly, whereas in the second one it is replaced with the third person singular pronoun <em>it</em>: "Do you know to me it (the grain of sand) brought just a simple loving thought?". It is a quite common resource for authors, since the use of pronouns prevent poems, as well as other kinds of literary and non-literary works, from being repetitive, that is, pronouns help authors avoid using the same word or term over and over again.
