New polling shows that a large majority supports voter ID laws that require individuals to show a photo identification before voting, including almost 70% of black voters.
The poll, released on Wednesday by Rasmussen Reports, found that 75% believe photo identification should be presented before voting and that 69% of black voters support voter ID laws.
Broken down by party, 60% of Democrats support showing an ID to vote compared to 89% of Republicans.
The polling also showed that only 21% oppose voter ID laws.
The new data comes as Democrats and Republicans spar on Capitol Hill over H.R. 1, the For The People Act, which would loosen requirements on both registering to vote and voting.

Article from 4 months ago, but still relevant.
Does it matter? The only way it will is entirely up to what ELECTED republicans will do about it.
So? Since when does a poll stop these Commies?
How in the bag are blacks for Dimms? So much so that they continue to vote for Dimms who basically are making the case that blacks are too helpless to procure a government ID and verify their identity so that they can vote.
Any fool party talking about me that would never get another vote for me again.
Don’t worry. The rat media will convince them that voter IDs are a white supremacist plot.
Photo ID laws are totally defeatable, this is basic security not foolproof. I would say we need fingerprints and DNA too, but we also need same-day voting, same-day counting on site, open cameras in every polling location, and severe penalties for anyone who violates an election.
I remember the scene and then the one of the shock on that character’s face after Poitier slapped him back. Good acting on the part of Larry Gates who played “Eric Endicott”.

” “Many Americans do not have one of the forms of identification states acceptable for voting,” the American Civil Liberties Union’s website says about its opposition to voter ID laws. “These voters are disproportionately low-income, racial and ethnic minorities, the elderly, and people with disabilities. Such voters more frequently have difficulty obtaining ID, because they cannot afford or cannot obtain the underlying documents that are a prerequisite to obtaining government-issued photo ID card.” “
In virtually all areas, a bill or piece of mail issued by a government agency is currently enough to serve as a form of ID. Social Security, a utility bill, Medicare, or passport; with a current address. Hell, I bet even a parking ticket would work.
Granted, photo ID should be mandatory (something that I think one can acquire online from their DMV as long as they’ve held one at some point), but that is unlikely to happen nationwide.
When I renewed my FOID (thanks, IL), they requested that I submit a photo of myself, confirm my info was correct, and pay the fee ($90) for processing. They then sent my card out in the mail, and I got it within 60 days. That was a point when new background checks were drastically slowing things down, on top of the state purposefully dragging their feet.
Based on those numbers, the highest opposition would have be from the woke leftist whites - since black support for voter ID is almost 10 points higher than Democrats as a whole.
Oh but it’s the other 25% and the puppies and the kitties and the chuldrin that were supposed to worry about! /sarcasm
Yet 95% of them still vote for democrats. This is called being a useful idiot.
But Obama’s Revolution can’t continue without voter fraud!
This is all White Liberals exploiting blacks politically for their Marxist goals.
