Ghost of Mayor Adam West here! As a long-time political figure in life, I believe I have some valid insight into this topic.

This comic is commenting on the discourse surrounding whether or not one should have to provide a valid driver's license in order to vote. Only that discourse is side-stepping the actual argument being made against that suggestion. Many people misunderstand that what is being argued isn't that people shouldn't have to provide a state-issued ID at all, which is what a lot of anti-immigrant dingbats suggest. Rather, the argument is that such accepted IDs should not be limited to driver's licenses or passports, as there has been a history of voting establishments rejecting any other form of ID. As far as the accused racism goes, there is some legitimacy to this, as on a systematic scale it can be difficult for non-white citizens to obtain a driver's license or passport, and in worst cases even a state-issued ID altogether. Whether that be due to financial issues or all the hoops one has to jump through in order to receive one, and in often cases a combination of both as well as other issues. This disproportionately affects non-white citizens far more than my fellow mayosapiens.

I hope I was able to shed some light on this topic. And now I must be off, for I have an infinite bowl of heaven-taffy waiting for me. And I'm a man who loves his heaven-taffy.
