The number is 83%, not 87%.

And it's a rather dubious way of polling on the question. Voters support voter ID in the abstract, but only a minority of voters support the currently-proposed law.

The way you implement voter ID matters a lot. It risks disenfranchising large groups of people, on zero evidence that there is a serious problem that needs solving. So Congress might be able to pass a voter ID law if they wrote it in a way that ensured people could vote, but I've got a sneaking suspicion that you wouldn't support such a law.

I'm for any proposal that proves you are a citizen. The most basic and secure way possible. However, I'm not for just showing a drivers license, because some states allow non citizens to get drivers licenses.

I'm also not for ballots without any verification. Ie, that the person that cast it is that person legitimately, and that they are not deceased.
