North Carolina’s Voter ID Amendment Back on the Ballot
After years of litigation over North Carolina’s photo ID requirement—and the constitutional amendment authorizing it—the November 2026 ballot will ask voters to extend photo ID to all voters, including by mail.
Where people stand
Oppose Voter ID Requirement: Prioritize broad voter access by limiting strict photo ID requirements, widening exceptions, and investing in alternatives that verify eligibility without increasing disenfranchisement risk.
Support Voter ID Requirement: Prioritize election integrity and uniform statewide standards by embedding the photo ID requirement in the state constitution and applying it consistently to in-person, absentee, and mail voting.
