Kamala Roasted With Photo ID For Her Rally, Calling Voter ID Laws Racist [VIDEOS]

Kamala Harris has sparked controversy and tease to require a government-issued ID to attend a recent campaign rally, despite his outspoken opposition to voter ID laws.

Harris' campaign event in Arizona on Friday, which also featured Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, was hit by criticism after the campaign required attendees to show government-issued photo identification to enter.

according to MOREa campaign email directed confirmed RSVPs to show matching ID at the Desert Diamond Arena, 15 miles northwest of downtown Phoenix. The event was first announced on July 30, with specific details released the day before.

Social media users were quick to highlight the perceived hypocrisy. Actor Kevin Sorbo tweeted to his 2 million followers: “Voter ID is racist, but you can't attend a Kamala rally without ID.”
