Arkansas governor signs bill reinstating voter ID law
(AP) — Arkansas' governor signed a measure Friday requiring voters to show photo identification before casting a ballot, reinstating a voter ID law that was struck down by the state's highest court more than two years ago.
Unlike that measure, the latest version of the requirement allows voters with a photo ID to cast a provisional ballot if they sign a sworn statement confirming their identity.
Earlier this month, they voted to put a proposed constitutional amendment imposing the requirement on next year's ballot.
