Photo development
Gerald McCormick is making moves to change the voter photo-ID law, but he's getting cricticism for it:
House Republican Leader Gerald McCormick's plan to let employees of cities and counties use local government-issued ID to satisfy Tennessee's new photo-ID requirement for voters isn't sitting well with a fellow top GOP leader who sponsored the law.
Republican Caucus Chairwoman Debra Maggart, of Hendersonville, said she specifically chose not to include city and county-government issued photo IDs for employees because she feared it might be abused by some local governments.
"I have talked to Gerald and he knows how I feel about it, that I worked very hard to model ours after Indiana," Maggart said. "I feel strongly since I know it's passed muster that's the way we should go. So he knows that."
