Voter ID Law Likely to be in effect for 2012 Elections - The Disenfrancishment continues
http://www.examiner.com/charity-in-philadelphia/voting-as-pennsylvanians-know-it-is-changingAs part of a nationwide effort in Republican-controlled states, a voter ID law is now expected to pass and be in effect for the 2012 elections.
