If confirmed, these figures are important because the state of Alabama has one of the strictest voter ID laws in any U.S. state. In 2011, Alabama passed a photo ID law which requires voters to have at least one of several specific kinds of photo ID in order to be able to cast the ballot.

While the law is manifestly about cracking down on "voter impersonation," research shows this is really rare. Some campaigners and activists such as Scott Douglas, executive director of the Greater Birmingham Ministries, claim the law "is nothing but a naked attempt to suppress the voting rights of people of color" who are less likely to have a photo ID they can use to vote.
