Rejected petition: Do not change the law requiring voters to show ID before voting.
Rejected on
Do not change the law requiring voters to show ID before voting. Having to show ID prevents voter fraud and the only reason for wanting to change this is to encourage voter fraud to take place again.
Requiring voters to show ID was necessary action to counter the growing voter fraud in elections.
