Twenty five States require ID. Most of them have some sort of provision for those who forgot to bring the ID, such as provisional ballots, signing affidavits, answering certain questions such as SS#, address and birthdate, etc. that may conform with the official roster. Certainly, if we legitimately require ID for more mundane activities (driving an automobile) wouldn't it be legitimate to require that someone identify that he is the person legally registered to vote?
