The PA Courts have delayed full
implementation of the voter ID law until after the
November 6 election. Poll workers will still ask
voters for a photo ID but no voter will
be prohibited from voting if they don’t have one.
Exception--First time voters must produce a photo
ID. This is due to a law which has been in
effect for a number of years and is not part of the
current controversy.
