Seems to me that here in Alaska it’s a given. The nice ladies at the polling places check your name on the list and check your id card before they check you off and give you your ballot. I think it has always been that way since I first voted in Alaska in the late ‘80s. What’s the issue?

I've never shown photo ID to vote. Your voter registration card is accepted as proof of your eligibility to vote, and there is no picture on it. I've been doing it way since I was 18 and Alaska is the only state I've ever been registered to vote in.
