Law - National look at voter ID

Also on the front page of the NY Times today is a story by Joyce Purnick headed "Stricter Voting Laws Carve Latest Partisan Divide." A quote:

The new measures include tighter controls over absentee balloting and stronger registration rules. The most contentious are laws in three states — Georgia, Indiana and Missouri — where people need government-issued picture ID’s to vote, and provisions here in Arizona that tightened voter ID requirements at the polls and imposed the proof-of-citizenship requirement for voter registration.
For background, start with this ILB entry from Sept. 12.
