Nine States Tighten Voting Rules | Vancouver News

Nine states have enacted new voting laws this year that could make it harder for some voters to cast ballots—especially older adults, people with disabilities, and those who’ve changed their names. Supporters claim these measures boost election security, while critics warn they could disenfranchise eligible voters by requiring hard-to-obtain ID. Even Republicans admit noncitizen voting is extremely rare, with Utah’s audit finding just 27 noncitizens among 2 million voters. Crucially, these restrictions only impact state and local elections—federal elections still allow voting without strict ID proof.
