3. I might support a "Voter ID" law IF...

- It is based on a National ID issued to every citizen free-of-charge, with supporting infrastructure to make the card easy and free to obtain and maintain (e.g. update photo) and to replace when lost.

- The National ID replaces or is linked to Social Security Number and Passport and can be used in lieu of both.

- The National ID is secure, theft-proof and preserves privacy.

- The Voter ID Law does not make it more difficult to vote (i.e compatible with mail-in voting, etc), so verification of the ID should not require physical presence.

- The Voter ID Law does not go into effect until a test vote is successfully performed in a populous state with mail-in voting.

- The Voter ID Law does not go into effect unless and until 99.99% of US citizens are verified to possess the National ID.
