As a former Belgian, I can attest to that. We got a voter card in the mail a few weeks before voting Sunday. Voting from 8 till 1, only mail in were for people in foreign countries (like I was the first few years in the US) with a passport card. Nothing else. Checked in the list, checked on the paper ballots, now replaced by machines too, and by next morning everything is counted. 10 million people so let us estimate there are about 4 million voters. They just voted a couple weeks ago, it is easily checked! this was also the first time there was no obligated voting, so there were fewer voters than when voting was mandatory for citizens.

I’ve lived in Texas for almost 30 years and a physical ID is required both to register to vote and at the polling place to actually vote. It’s never been different as far as I can remember.
