Rasmussen: 70% Of Likely Voters Support Requiring Proof Of Identity To Vote

From Rasmussen Reports comes yet another poll that shows voter I.D. laws are not only popular, they enjoy widespread support.

The U.S. Justice Department announced Monday that it is challenging North Carolina’s new voter ID law on the grounds that it is racially discriminatory. But voters nationwide continue to strongly support laws that require proof of identity before voting and don’t believe they discriminate.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 70% of Likely U.S. Voters believe all voters should be required to prove their identity before being allowed to vote. Only 25% oppose such a requirement.
