A study done by the University of Washington included 1000 registered voters and concluded that the current Voter ID requirement poses a greater burden on Democrats and Minorities.

The demographics include the elderly, blacks, latino, and Democrats although whites and Republicans also feel the effect of the law.

The study only included registered voters and the findings were:

Of people with Valid Identification 41 percent were Republican while 32 per cent were Democrat.

Of those without a valid ID 34 percent were Republican and 38 were Democrats

Of the 55-69 Age Demographic 91 per cent had a valid and current ID.

Of the 18-34 Age demographic 80 per cent had a valid and current ID.

Of the over 70 age demographic 82 per cent had a valid and current ID.

Of those making a minimum of $40,000 a year 88 per cent had a current ID.

Of those making less than $40,000 a year only 82 per cent had a current ID.

Of those who are white 86 per cent had a valid ID.

Of those who are black 73 per cent had a valid ID.

The study has a 3.1 per cent margin of error.

The study suggest that minorities of race and class are mostly affected by the ID requirement to voting.

Democrats are appealing their case to the Supreme Court after the 7th U.S. Court of Appeals upheld the law as constitutional. Some feel that the law protects sovereignty of the U.S. by preventing voter fraud. They believe Democrats want to overturn the vote so that illegal immigrant and the dead vote can be counted. Others believe that the unnecessary targeting of voters more inclined to vote Democrat is the deeper issue here, and that the law is discriminatory against minorities and is no better than a modern day poll tax, which gives the Republicans a legal stronghold in the voting game.

Court Proceedings will begin on January 9th, many states that are considering their own laws are waiting until the Supreme Courts ruling confirms of denies the constitutionality of requiring a Voter ID.
