You mean it may “fairly target those inelegible to vote” in a U.S. election?

Use a firearm illegally and look at all the laws and checks we have now.
Vote illegally and.....nothing?

See following link for discussion, map and table showing
each state’s Voter ID Law status.

http://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/voter-id.aspx

Introduction: A total of 34 states have passed laws requiring voters to show some form of identification at the polls. As of October 10, 2014, 31 of these voter identification laws are in force. Pennsylvania’s law has been struck down and will not be appealed; North Carolina’s law, enacted in 2013, goes into effect in 2016; and Wisconsin has been blocked by the U.S. Supreme Court from implementing its law for 2014, pending a court case. Texas’ strict photo voter ID law has been struck down by a federal court (an appeal is likely), and an earlier non-strict, non-photo law is in place. Scroll over the map below for state-by state details.

The remaining 19 states use other methods to verify the identity of voters. Most frequently, other identifying information provided at the polling place, such as a signature, is checked against information on file. See NCSL’s Voter Verification Without ID Documents.

Please note that some of the 31 states with voter identification laws in place have enacted stricter requirements with implementation dates in the future. The current, in-effect laws are used here, with footnotes that identify stricter laws to be implemented in 2015 or 2016.
