Poll: Non-White People Support Voter ID More than White People
Katherine Hamilton 22 Jun 2021
After months of politicians like failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) creating a hullabaloo over “racist” voting laws, data shows more non-white voters than white voters support photo ID laws.
According to a Monmouth University poll released Monday, 77 percent of white voters and 84 percent of non-white voters think people should have to prove their identity to vote.
Along party lines, 91 percent of Republicans, 87 percent of independents, and 62 percent of Democrats support photo ID laws, according to the poll.
The poll results come as Democrats shift their tone on photo ID laws ahead of the Senate vote on the “For the People Act” this week.
In an interview on CNN last week, Abrams was asked if she would accept Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-WV) compromise to the “For the People Act,” even if voter ID was a part of it, the Washington Post reported. Abrams answered:
That’s one of the fallacies of Republican talking points that have been deeply disturbing. No one has ever objected to having to prove who you are to vote. It’s been part of our nation’s history since the inception of voting.
