Releasing the findings of a study conducted at 44 visits to PennDOT driver license centers, the Pennsylvania Budget and Policy Center said it found signage and knowledge of the voter ID law overall to be lacking.
Sharon Ward, director of the Harrisburg-based policy center, said the survey conducted by members or staffers for the Service Employees International Union from Sept. 10 to 17, found about nine in 10 centers had some information available about the law that requires voters to produce a photo ID to cast a ballots. But in a quarter of the cases, she said the observers thought that information was hard to find or had run out.
The group also found that PennDOT employees were not too familiar with the process for obtaining a Department of State voter ID card, which only became available on Aug. 27. Those cards were created after voters encountered problems obtaining the documents needed to obtain a PennDOT non-driver's license photo ID.
