Murray, KY – AARP Tennessee is collaborating with that state's coordinator of elections to help people meet requirements of a new law making photo identification mandatory to vote. The two will hold a series of question and answer sessions around the state starting in Knoxville on October 18th. Elections Coordinator Mark Goins says he's grateful to AARP for its help in raising awareness about the new law. A coalition of groups opposed to the measure say they want to repeal it during the next legislative session. Members of the "No Barriers to the Ballot Box" campaign announced a petition drive last week they hope will convince lawmakers the requirement is unpopular. The state estimates 126,000 registered voters don't have current driver's licenses with photos on them.
