::::Well the Republicans didn't have to adopt it. In fact, on the floor of the Senate, there were amendments to the bill that were defeated. They could have easily killed no-excuse absentee balloting, but decided not to. And, in any case, the State of Georgia used the no-excuse absentee voting provisions to defend photo ID from a constitutional attack. [[User:GregG|GregG]] 00:22, 23 November 2012 (EST)
