The vast majority of registered voters in Pennsylvania have identification that can be used for voting, according to a recent comparison of the Department of State’s voter registration rolls and Pennsylvania Department of Transportation ID databases. The departments released the data as the state faces a lawsuit from the ACLU and other groups over the law, which was approved this past spring.
“This thorough comparison of databases confirms that most Pennsylvanians have acceptable photo ID for voting this November,” Secretary of the Commonwealth Carol Aichele said. “This comparison takes into account only voters with PennDOT IDs, and does not include voters who may have any of the other various acceptable forms of ID.”
