With less than two weeks until the 2024 presidential election, a new Gallup poll shows growing support for election integrity measures compared to prior election cycles, with vast majority of U.S. adults in favor of requiring photo identification to cast a ballot and proof of citizenship when registering to vote.

The poll, released on Oct. 24, found that 84 percent of American adults support voter ID measures, marking an increase from the 80 percent who expressed support for the measure ahead of the 2016 election, and the 79 percent who backed it during the 2022 midterm elections.
