Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D-Ky.) has vetoed a bill that would require the state’s voters to show government-issued identification before being allowed to cast ballots.
In a statement (pdf) on April 3, Beshear said he was vetoing Senate Bill 2 because it would introduce an impediment to voting and that it sought to address a “problem that does not exist,” referring to Republican claims of voter fraud in the state.
