voter ID noncitizen voting maine texas.

Voters in Maine and Texas are deciding whether to enact new Republican-backed measures that supporters say would help safeguard elections, but which opponents believe are intended to make voting more difficult. The Texas proposal would amend the state constitution to add people who aren’t citizens of the United States to the list of those excluded from participating in elections. Meanwhile, Maine’s proposal would implement a photo ID requirement for voters, limit the use of drop boxes for returning completed ballots and make several changes to the state’s absentee voting system.
