Vote November 4: Defeat Suppression of Minorities, Youth, Workers

Oklahoma's Legislative Referendum No. 347 passed in 2010. It requires citizens to provide a photograph government ID to vote in an election.

Rhode Island

Passed in 2014, 17-19-24.2 requires Rhode Island voters to present a photo ID. The state accepts varying forms of photo ID, and also allows for an affidavit to vote without an ID. The legislation was passed a Democrat controlled state legislature in a predominantly Democratic Northern state.

South Carolina

South Carolina now demands Photo ID verification at polls. The state issues a provisional ballot if the voter has no ID and the state allows a variety of excuses, or "reason of impediment" for voters, such as not having a car or access to transportation. Act R54, which amended the previous photo ID law, allows "citizens with non-photo voter registration cards to still vote without a photo ID so long as they state the reason for not having obtained one" while at the same time increasing "the list of qualifying photo IDs that may be used to vote; and it makes it far easier to obtain a qualifying photo ID than it was under pre-existing law."

This argument is being made to justify the law's constitutionality in the State of South Carolina V. Attorney General Eric Holder Jr.

South Dakota

South Dakota's 12-18-6.1 requires that citizens must provide photo ID or a social security number to vote in the state. Students can use student ID's to vote or other forms of ID at the polls.

Tennessee

Tennessee shortened early voting periods in 2012, as well as photo ID laws. The legislature passed legislation that required residents provide proof of citizenship, but the law was struck down as unconstitutional. This provision will be impacted by Kansas & Arizona's lawsuit.
