It's just another form of voter suppression. Not every voter has an ID. If your name is on the voter role and the signature can be matched to the one they have on file when you registered, that's all that is needed. It's been that way forever until the republicans came up with this idea purely as a way of suppressing the vote. They, themselves, admit that, the fewer people who vote, the better their chances of "winning."
