 It varies by state, but I'd be surprised if you didn't need proof of
 citizenship to *register* to vote in every state. In California, you
 need proof of citizenship and registry in California to register.

 A photo ID is then needed to verify that you are the registered voter
 the first time you vote. After that, you may be asked if they don't
 have your ID information online.

 The list of acceptable documents is pretty comprehensive to prove
 identity at the voting booth. Your citizenship is documented at time of
 registration.

 It's been a while since I've voted at a polling place. I started doing
 vote by mail when my mother was unable to travel to a polling place so
 I knew the process. That's another facet of the many SAVE bills is to
 also limit mail-in voting.

 The number of illegal aliens voting is quite low, certainly too low to
 merit this effort. Something else is afoot - voter disenfrancisement
 and collecting information on citizens by DHS.

 Did you know that one of the drafts of the the SAVE America act says
 that if a state sends their registration rolls to DHS, they don't need
 to check voter ID at the polling place? That collection of state
 polling data by the US government is something the courts have shut
 down multiple times.
