Voter ID paper from Tova Wang

High Court to Ponder Question Plaguing Voters: "Got ID?" by Tova Andrea Wang, The Century Foundation, 10/24/2007 The United States Supreme Court recently agreed to hear a case regarding the constitutionality of Indiana’s strictest-in-the-nation voter identification law. Indiana currently requires every voter to present government-issued photo identification at the polls or be barred from voting. One of the main arguments made by the defenders of the law, in this case and in other identification litigation, is that there is a lack of data showing that voter identification requirements suppress voting or disproportionately impact particular groups. -- http://www.reformelections.org/
