Senate Democrats voted against Republican amendment requiring photo ID for voting

Senate Democrats defeated a Republican amendment sponsored by Sen. Jon Husted requiring voters to show photo ID when voting in person or by mail. The vote was 53-47 with all Democrats voting against the measure. Republicans framed this as part of their broader SAVE America Act legislative priority and used it to challenge Democrats who have previously expressed support for voter ID requirements.
