“‘The only states that Kamala Harris won in the last election were states that did not have voter ID,’ former Gov. Scott Walker told voters at a rally last month. That’s a popular but incorrect factoid. Harris won New Hampshire and Rhode Island, where voters must show ID to cast ballots, and carried other states like Colorado where ID is required to register. Democrats won the 2020 presidential race in Wisconsin, and the 2018 and 2022 races for governor, with ID requirements in place. The ballots Republicans need today are from the less-frequent Trump voters who usually skip elections; they need them to overwhelm high-turnout liberals who don’t misplace their paperwork.” (04/01/25)
