Ala. to Close 31 Satellite DMV Offices in Counties Where 75 Percent of Voters Are Black

labama requires a photo ID to vote.

This week Alabama decided to announce that it would stop issuing driver's licenses in certain counties because of budget cuts. Those counties happen to contain the highest percentage of nonwhite voters, an AL.com columnist has pointed out.


According to the report, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency announced (pdf) Wednesday that 31 satellite state Motor Vehicle Division offices would no longer have access to driver's license examiners as a result of the cuts, meaning that residents will have to travel to other counties in order to take care of their licensing needs.

AL.com's John Archibald was quick to notice that this new change, coming one year after the voter photo-ID law took effect, does not appear to be a coincidence. He is calling for the Department of Justice to open an investigation, the site notes.

2. Election workers should not ask for photo IDs in those counties if the state won't issue them.
