WASHINGTON – The Senate today voted on Sen. Jon Husted’s (R-Ohio) bill to require voters to show photo ID at the polls.
Senate Democrats blocked the bill from reaching the 60-vote threshold needed to advance, with a final vote of 52-46.
With 23 states – including Ohio – already requesting voters present photo ID, Husted supports establishing a photo ID requirement to secure American elections.
“So tonight, this early morning, I'm offering a clean, simple, straightforward bill to require a photo ID to vote in America.
“Voters can use a driver's license, a state issued ID, passport, military or veteran's ID, or tribal ID.
