In PA you go to your designated poll, give them your address, they check their list, and if more than one person is listed for that address they ask which one you are, and have you sign. They already have the right to ask for your voter registration card if they think something's not right. I think you can still vote but they hold your ballot for further checking. That's what I've heard but have no experience with that.
So no, this bullshit won't do a thing except discourage people from voting, which is already a huge problem in this country. The vote fraud they aren't addressing is the electronic voting machines.
