Electronic Poll Roster Suggested as Voter ID Alternative
ST. PAUL, Minn. - Gov. Mark Dayton and Secretary of State Mark Ritchie say they have found an alternative to the voter identification push at the state Capitol, unveiling an electronic roster system that would utilize the photographs that are already in the state's file system instead of a physical ID.
"There are 84,000 people who don't carry a photo ID -- dont' need it, but their photo could be inside of the system and right there," Ritchie said. "The individual who simply lost their wallet -- or had their wallet stolen, their photo is inside the system."
Ritchie says this alternative would eliminate the need for voters to present an ID at the polls.

Sounds agreeable, so long as it is a Positive Match. If the State officially accepts it, it should be okay there. If The Fred accept it, it should extend further. ..... God, I hate my License Photo.
