I noticed that after I read the details more carefully--so it looks as if RI is one of a kind.

There is a big difference between Michigan and the states, like Indiana, Georgia, now Rhode Island, and the others that have a strict photo ID requirement.  Michigan is requested, but not required.  If a voter doesn’t have photo ID she or he can sign an affidavit and still cast a regular ballot.

Although it hasn't been updated in a few days (RI signing isn't on it yet), this NCSL chart might be of interest to you--Michigan is the one that strikes me.

Does anyone know offhand if any other strongly "blue" state has recently adopted a voter id law; or is RI unique in that respect?
