Should Voters Be Required to Show Photo Identification in Order to Vote?
As of Jan. 2019, 35 states had laws that either required or requested voters to provide identification at the polling place. Some of those states required a government-issued photo ID while other states allowed non-photo identificaton such as a document showing the voter's name and address.
