> do you really want someone who cannot figure out how to use the mail exerting political power over you?

No. I want anyone (which includes people who don't know how to use the mail) to have the ability to exercise their Consti-fucking-tutional rights.

> Are you aware that anyone who wants employment in the US must present proof of employment eligibility, which in almost all circumstances will be sufficient to verify eligibility to vote

Did you know that there are plenty of situations in which someone could have documents that would allow them to be eligible for employment, but not to register to vote in their state? Such as people who recently moved from one to another, and haven't had time to get a new state ID/DL?

Do you also not understand how difficult it is to get any form of identification if you are, say, one of the millions of Americans who don't have a home? (And, before anyone tries to make the absurd argument that homeless people aren't online--most people [including homeless people, who, though they can't afford to spend thousands of dollars a year on a roof over their head, do generally recognize that it is more than worth it to pay less than a hundred dollars a month for a phone plan that will give them access to an unlimited source of information about anything--from open shelters to food drives] have phones capable of connecting to the Internet. Also public libraries) And did you also know that people without homes still have Constitutional rights?

> Exactly how deep into the bottom of the barrel do you want to scrape before you admit that for any reasonably participatory member of society, voting is actually pretty easy?

IDK yo--how deep of a hole are you going to dig yourself into before you admit that you're literally trying to tell someone that they're somehow doing their country a disservice by thinking about people less fortunate than themselves?
