If you have a government-issued ID from State A but you wish to vote in State B where you are currently residing (e.g., college students, staff that are seconded to a state for a lenghty period, service members), are some state ID laws written such that they will not accept as proof IDs from other states? I.e., are they specifically asking for IDs from that state?

(I guess this may not apply to military who may have a drivers ID for their home state but a military ID with their current location on it).
