Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : In addition to implementing voter ID, North Carolina's Republican Legislature has also further restricted vote-by-mail options.
52% : While a trial court judge initially ruled that the digital IDs met voter ID requirements, the state court of appeals overruled the trial courts' decision.
50% : The higher courts' ruling has led to a scramble by UNC-Chapel Hill administrators and student advocacy groups to ensure that students who do not have another acceptable form of voter ID are able to obtain a physical student ID card free of charge.
