The Brennan Center is totally against anyone needing an ID to vote. Their stats are dead wrong.
"Studies show that as many as 11 percent of eligible voters do not have government-issued photo ID. That percentage is even higher for seniors, people of color, people with disabilities, low-income voters, and students. Many citizens find it hard to get government photo IDs, because the underlying documentation like birth certificates (the ID one needs to get ID) is often
difficult or expensive to come by. At the same time, voter ID policies are
far more costly to implement than many assume. Instead, Improvements in voting technology and modernization of our voter registration system will both increase efficiency and close the door on mistakes and fraud."
One out of 11 people of voting age do not have an ID. And it's higher for seniors, people of color, people with disabilities, low-income voters and students. That would mean that up to 15 % of the voting age people are totally off the grid of being a US Citizen.
