Pennsylvania has seen widespread reports of voters wrongly being
asked for identification by poll workers, according to Election
Protection, a coalition of organizations monitoring voting.
Two voters told NBC News they had been asked for photo ID.
"I recently moved
into my voting area, so I brought everything with me, and I figured I
would hand them my voter registration card," said Nicole Sorgini, 27, of
Philadelphia, who voted at the Cook Wissackon School.
"When I handed it to
them they said, 'No, I need your driver's license,' and someone else in
line said, 'Oh, I only have my voter ID card.'"
Poll workers then told them they require driver's licenses for new voters, Sorghini said.
"I had my driver's license so I just used that, but I told them technically under the law, you can use the voter ID card."
