How will this be enforced? How do we know they won’t turn a blind eye in asking for the ID?

Minority party poll watchers are required to make it work.

There will always be vote fraud but this makes it harder.

In Michigan we now have magnetic strip readers at the polling place. They look at the ID, check the name off a list on paper then run the ID through the strip reader which checks it off a list with the state computers.

While we don’t have to show an ID, it doesn’t make sense to try voting without it because that ballot is unlikely to be counted.

What's really needed is to have serious penalties and fines for fraudulent voting, with bounties to people who provide evidence leading to the arrest and conviction of fraudulent voters.

Then Republican poll-watchers can make some money catching Dem vote fraudsters on election day. All you would have to do would be to video record somebody at the poll claiming to be Joe Smith of 1313 Mockingbird Lane, and show that the face actually belongs to George Jones.
