TO PROVIDE A PROCEDURE FOR AN ELECTOR IN BAMBERG COUNTY TO VERIFY IDENTIFICATION WHEN PRESENTING HIMSELF TO VOTE.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. If an elector in Bamberg County who possesses a voter registration card cannot produce a picture identification when he presents himself to vote as required by law, then his precinct electronically shall verify whether he has a valid driver's license or identification card on record with the Department of Motor Vehicles. Upon obtaining positive verification, then he must be allowed to cast a ballot. If the precinct at which the elector presents himself to vote is not equipped to obtain positive verification electronically, the requirement to produce a picture identification does not apply and the elector must be allowed to cast a provisional ballot.
SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
