Map: 29 million Americans live under new voter ID laws put in place since 2020

Super Tuesday voters in North Carolina and Arkansas will encounter stricter voter ID requirements when they head to the polls, as part of a wave of voter ID laws enacted across the country during the last four years.

Eight states have enacted voter ID laws since the 2020 election, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures: Arkansas, Idaho, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio and Wyoming. The rash of new laws affects 29 million adults. One in six voters live in anticipated 2024 battleground states — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — with new ID requirements.
