Very strongly agree

No, this will disadvantage those who do not have the resources to obtain one

Democrats often argue that voter ID laws disproportionately affect those who do not have the resources to obtain a photo ID, such as low-income individuals, minorities, and the elderly. They believe that these laws can lead to voter suppression and disenfranchisement. In 2016, the Democratic party platform called for expanding access to the ballot box and reducing barriers to voting.

No, and there is little evidence that voter fraud even exists

The Democratic party generally agrees that there is little evidence of widespread voter fraud. They argue that claims of voter fraud are often used to justify restrictive voting laws that disproportionately affect certain groups. For example, in 2017, the Democratic National Committee formed the Commission on Protecting American Democracy from the Trump Administration, which aimed to debunk claims of widespread voter fraud.

Strongly agree

No

Democrats generally believe that photo ID requirements can create barriers to voting for certain groups, such as low-income individuals, minorities, and the elderly. They argue that these requirements can lead to voter suppression. In 2016, the Democratic party platform explicitly opposed 'laws that place unnecessary restrictions on those seeking to exercise their right to vote.'

No, and automatically register every citizen to vote when they turn 18

Many Democrats support automatic voter registration as a way to increase voter participation and reduce barriers to voting. In 2016, the Democratic party platform called for the implementation of automatic voter registration for all eligible citizens when they turn 18. Several Democratic-led states, such as Oregon and California, have already implemented automatic voter registration systems.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Democratic party generally opposes strict voter ID laws, arguing that they disproportionately affect minority and low-income voters who may not have access to photo IDs. For example, in 2013, the Democratic National Committee launched a 'voter expansion project' to fight against voter ID laws and other voting restrictions.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, this will prevent voter fraud

The Democratic party generally argues that voter fraud is extremely rare and that strict voter ID laws are unnecessary. They believe that these laws are more likely to suppress legitimate votes than to prevent fraud. For example, in 2017, the Democratic National Committee formed the Commission on Protecting American Democracy from the Trump Administration, which aimed to debunk claims of widespread voter fraud.
