I’ve been checking IDs here in NC so far during early voting here in NC. They have to have a photo on them.
We check photo and expiration dates. However if a person is older than 65 and has an expired license it can still be used as long as it expired after they turned 65. Any government employee or military ID with the exception of our county (they opted out) can also be used. Federal IDs CAN be expired.
Mostly they have been driver’s licenses but I did get a Federal government ID (expired) but can still be used. I knew the person.
There is no need to check these online. If a person’s ID is not up to snuff we can offer them a provisional ballot or they can opt to go home and get one that is. . Our County Board of Elections has both Republicans and Democrats who decide if a provisional ballot will be accepted.
My guess is it was the voter roll system. Probably internet dependent...
Good instinct.
Unlike what the tweet claims, voting is not suspended. Affected voters are having the votes set aside. Which means they can be counted late
These seems in line with voter verification not the voting itself.
My research shows SC requires an ID.

They may need to check if it's a valid ID and this may need to connect with the DMV or some other system
There is no need to check any ID online.

Provisional ballots seem to be what is happening here.
But we don't even have the full broadcast to asses what she reported.
