You should know this because voter ID is one of the most debated topics in American politics, especially in recent years (SAVE America Act). On one hand, there’s election integrity, and on the other, voter access.

Of these states, six have Democratic trifectas, 23 have Republican trifectas, and seven have divided governments. There are currently 14 states that do not require identification at the polls outside of what is required by federal law. Of these 14 states, 10 have Democratic trifectas, and four have a divided government.
Shouldn’t the logic be the other way? Why would you need to?
I’ve never had to do this and there’s never been an issue so it seems like a solution in search of a problem to me.
In plenty of countries, you have to bring ID when you vote. Many also require you to have ID (and in the Netherlands you have to have it with you at all times).
