The Senate approved legislation Wednesday night mandating people offer one of eight forms of photo ID before their votes can count. Otherwise, a person must cast a provisional ballot and prove identity later.
The bill now returns to the House, which passed the bill last week on party lines but fell short of overcoming any potential veto. GOP Sen. Debbie Clary of Cleveland County says it's not too much to ask someone prove their identity before voting. Democrats say the bill is all about Republicans suppressing votes to help the GOP's political fortunes.
