A new poll by Scott Rasmussen finds that nearly three out of four voters believe everyone who votes in person should be required to show photo ID first.
The 73% number seems to fly in the face of the tone of widespread media reports that state or imply that is a discredited fringe or minority position to support a requirement for voter ID.
Also, according to the poll, about the same percentage, 74%, are in favor of requiring all mail-in ballots to be received by Election Day.
“These results strongly suggest that voters do not see common sense voting rules as a restriction on voting,” says Rasmussen.
