before you go into your usual shit-fit.....here are the facts (and note that some red states with GOP governors and sec. of state also are not requiring what you wish...)
A total of 34 states have laws requesting or requiring voters to show some form of identification at the polls. 32 of these voter identification laws are in force in 2016. West Virginia's law, signed on April 1, 2016, goes into effect in 2018. North Carolina's law has been struck down, and the U.S. Supreme Court will not hear the case before the election this year, and therefore its law is not included. Scroll over the map below for state-by state details.
The remaining 18 states (including North Carolina) use other methods to verify the identity of voters. Most frequently, other identifying information provided at the polling place, such as a signature, is checked against information on file. See NCSL’s Voter Verification Without ID Documents.
