I get what you’re saying - that this is a racism issue not a voter ID issue. But, I think that if voter ID laws are to implemented then situations like these (where eligible voters are rejected because they don’t look like their photo) should be taken into account.

The article discusses a possible solution as widening the amount and type of ID that would qualify as a voter ID. Some types of ID that were omitted were questionable to say the least (why accept travel documents for the elderly but not the youth?)

I think the fear here is these voter ID laws were not made in good faith.

Edit: grammar
