I think they need to pass a new law requiring photo ID but also addressing some of Ginsburgs’s issues, like making sure people know they can get a birth certificate from two or three dollars if it’s being used to get ID to vote. Also I’m not sure why they are not allowing photo ID from state universities. Unless they can articulate a good reason I think they should allow them. And if there is some reason they are not good ID for voting, then perhaps the problem could be solved by making sure the procedures for getting the university ID as well as the information on them to be uniform across the state.

I am curious as to what “paperwork” Obola presented to Columbia to get a student ID.

University ID's aren't issued by the DPS, and being a student at a university doesn't mean you're not registered to vote elsewhere. There are lots of foreigners who have University ID's who have no right to vote in our elections.

A lot of university's have switched to IDs that look and act like debit card with the magnetic stripes on the back. The pictures on them are small and usually not a very good reproduction of the individual. They really would not make a good and accurate form of identification.
