The Virginia Lieutenant Governor explains his vote with the Democrats and renewed support for voter photo ID.
“I would note that an additional bill, SB1256, will be considered by the
Senate tomorrow. SB1256 goes a step farther than SB719 and would
require photo ID at the polls. Interestingly, SB1256 already includes a
delayed effective date until July 1, 2014. I will support passage of
SB1256 if it comes before the Senate and results in a tie vote. I have
always supported photo ID because I believe it will help improve
integrity in the elections process.”
