The people who call themselves the "mainstream media" have a remarkable tendency to take the minority position on an 80-20 issue, most recently on requiring voters to show a photo ID at the polls. House Republicans have passed the "SAVE Act," while Democrats have almost unanimously opposed it.
But the American people do not. Gallup pollsters report 84 percent of Americans support requiring photo ID to vote – 98 percent of Republicans, 84 percent of independents, and 67 percent of Democrats. Large majorities of blacks and Latinos back it. Separately, 83% support the SAVE Act requiring proof of citizenship when registering to vote for the first time.
