With the parties increasingly at odds over voting rules in states, several Democratic members of Congress are maintaining their opposition to voter ID laws despite broad popularity among the public, polls show.
Georgia, in March, joined 36 other states in requiring photo identification to vote. Republican Gov. Brian Kemp s signature on the legislation sparked weeks of political protests, with critics calling the law a blunt instrument of voter suppression.
Still, according to various polls since 2006, over 75% of people support showing a photo identification in order to cast a ballot. This includes the support of 69% of black voters. However, despite the support, Democrats argue the election provision is a form of voter suppression.
