据 Decision Desk HQ 预测，北卡罗来纳州选民批准了一项宪法修正案，要求该州所有选民在投票时出示照片身份证。
North Carolinians are projected to approve a constitutional amendment requiring that all voters in the state show photo ID to cast a ballot, according to Decision Desk HQ.
“要求照片身份证修正案”提议修改北卡罗来纳州宪法，规定该州所有选民必须出示身份证，无论他们是亲自投票还是邮寄选票。该修正案的通过是州共和党的胜利，共和党支持对亲自投票者和邮寄选票者实行统一规则。这也标志着州民主党的失利，民主党曾以该要求会对军人、学生、农村居民和老年人产生影响为由反对该修正案。
The Require Photo Identification Amendment proposed changing the North Carolina Constitution to require all voters in the state to present an ID, regardless of whether they are casting a ballot in person or not. The amendment's passage represents a win for state Republicans, who backed uniform rules for in-person voters and those who cast their ballot by mail. It also marks a loss for the state Democratic Party, which cited concerns about the effects of a mail-in photo ID requirement on military members, students, rural residents and the elderly in advocating against the amendment.
北卡罗来纳州选民在亲自投票或邮寄选票时已经需要出示身份证件。然而，该修正案的通过将这一要求写入州宪法，使得未来州立法者更难推翻它。
North Carolina voters already have to show identification when they cast a ballot in person or by mail. The amendment's passage, however, enshrines the requirement in the state constitution, making it more difficult for future state lawmakers to overturn it.
北卡罗来纳州议会共和党人于 2024 年 12 月批准将该修正案列入今年的选票。北卡罗来纳州选民此前曾在 2018 年修改州宪法，要求亲自投票者在投票站出示照片身份证。
Republicans in the North Carolina General Assembly approved the amendment’s addition to this year’s ballot in December 2024. Voters in North Carolina previously amended the state constitution in 2018 to require in-person voters to show photo ID at the polls.
