In my part of the country, we are told that poll workers should not ask a voter for personal identification, like a driver’s license.
I presume there is still a requirement to “check in”. That is, one must state name and address.
Correct?
Michigan will have a VOTING Proposal on the ballot which will change the constitution and nullify some state laws. One which prisoners will be able to vote. Drop boxes for every 15,000 people in an city, town, etc.
Proposal 2 would amend the Michigan Constitution to:
Allow nine days of early voting
Require state-funded postage for absentee applications and ballots
Continue to allow registered voters without a state ID to sign an affidavit attesting to their identity
Allow public sources and charities to fund elections, subject to disclosure rules
Allow voters to register for absentee ballots for all future elections
Require military and overseas ballots to be counted if postmarked by Election Day
Require ballot drop boxes for every 15,000 voters in a municipality
Establish that post-election audits can only be conducted by state and local officials
Require canvassing boards to only certify election results based on the official vote counts
Michigan is lost.
I am a poll watcher and during the primaries we were instructed not to talk to any voter or poll worker. We were to speak only to the poll “clerk” of the polling place. We could pose questions about voters to her, but that’s it. Oh and we had to wear a sign that ID’d who we were in big letters with our birth date and address. Sort of like a “here I am and this is where I live and my birthdate” but I can’t know anything about you. OK
In Kansas you show ID and the poll worker scans it.
