A recent poll found that 22% of UK voters are still not aware that they will need to carry a form of photographic ID, which is a requirement after Rishi Sunak’s Government brought in a new law forcing voters to carry one of a limited number of approved IDs in order to vote.
The legislation was rushed through despite almost no evidence of in-person voting fraud in the UK.
Exactly. This is not gerrymandering.
However it is also unnecessary. You say it’s hard to detect in person voter fraud, however every professional analysis of voter fraud has determined that it does not happen in any significant manner. The sole purpose of this is to prevent voting, not to prevent fraudulent voting.
