But voter registration in SC doesn’t require a photo ID; a utility bill serves just as well.

So why are you demanding a photo ID?

Also note that the voter registration form requires that the registrant swear or affirm under penalty of perjury that they are a valid voter. By demanding a photo ID, you are stating that their sworn testimony / affirmation isn’t enough. And also stating that, if they aren’t a valid voter but still signed the voter registration, having a photo ID won’t prevent them from voting.

And anecdotal evidence of lunch hour activity at the DMV isn’t an argument for those who can’t get there. How about extending the hours that the DMV is open?
