4. This will probably be even more important than registration

for the upcoming election....many voters may not know about this, and they may not have photo ID in time to vote. This would be a good way to educate people on this new law, and that will have to include voters.

I read that the poll workers will be trained to ask for ID for the primary, even though it is not required yet, just to educate people prior to the general election----but I am curious if they will do this, or if they may "forget" to ask some people. There are also too many people who do not vote in primaries, but show up for the general election---so they will not be made aware that they must have ID when they vote.

Please, everyone, make this a primary point during voter drives.
