Except there is little empirical evidence for assumption 2, that voter id "addresses this appearance of in-person fraud": http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1099056

  1.  Assume a significant portion of the public believes that our polls are insecure and that in-person voter fraud is a problem.
  2.  Assume that voter id addresses this appearance of in-person voter fraud.
Does Voter ID, which at least addresses this appearance of in-person voter fraud, not justify its enactment?

After all, the appearance of corruption is a major argument in support of compelled campaign finance disclosure. I mean, if we say that all our elected officials are on the take, they must be on the take.
