The Battle Over Voter ID

Interview:

http://onpoint.wbur.org/2012/07/25/the-battle-over-voter-id

Voter ID laws. It’s become a hot battle in the federal courts as we head toward November.  11 state legislatures, nearly all Republican, have passed stricter laws requiring voters to present identification at the polls in the last two years. Republicans say the new laws are necessary to prevent possible voter fraud.
Democrats respond it’s a solution in search of a problem, there’s no evidence of fraud except on the smallest of scales.  The House majority leader in Pennsylvania bragged publicly that new voter ID laws will deliver his state to Romney.  
This hour, On Point: Voter ID, needed authentication or voter suppression?
