Voter ID should be a valid ID, no expired documents should be acceptable
 

The state of Virginia should expect that anyone who desires to vote in a Virginia election should have a valid,current/ not expired  approved form of voter ID.

There is nothing racist or bigoted about expecting people to have a valid unexpired photo ID to vote. You need to show a current valid photo  ID to purchase alcohol or cigarettes, or to go through the airport security. No one accuses liquor stores or the TSA of being racist.

Thank you,
