Trump to order voter ID for every vote, ‘no exceptions’

United States President Donald Trump has announced plans to sign an executive order requiring voter identification from every voter.
“Voter ID Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!!,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform on Saturday.
The announcement comes as Trump seeks to overhaul the electoral system in the US over false claims that his 2020 loss to Democratic President Joe Biden was the result of widespread fraud.
The president and his Republican allies also have made baseless claims about widespread voting by non-citizens, which is illegal and rarely occurs.
For years, he has called for the end of electronic voting machines, pushing instead for the use of paper ballots and hand counts, a process that election officials say is time-consuming, costly and far less accurate than machine counting.

Eric Ham is a US political analyst and author of the book “The GOP Civil War: Inside the Battle for the Soul of the Republican Party.” He says President Trump is attempting to control how elections in the US are run.
