No, a student ID requires a valid identification which can be from their home state.
But a student is allowed to vote in the state where they are attending college or their home state. But not both.
Of course Texas did everything possible to make it harder for college students to vote

- 1659447091 1y agoIt doesn't matter if a student ID required a DNA test. It is simply not a valid ID as accepted by the state of Texas. States have a constitution right to establish its voting rules. If students want to vote in Texas and Texas requires a valid Texas ID then the student needs a Texas approved valid ID to vote. There is a list of IDs the state of Texas considers valid, including a passport, however a student ID is not a valid ID as recognized by Texas for any state business. If that is simply beyond your being able to look at without grasping for straws and moving the goal post [we are talking about LTC vs student ID specifically, if you wanted to talk about voting locations then you should of went with that and left the ID thing out of it, which was exactly my point in the first post]. Anyway the only valid conclusion I can come away with from this discussion is that you only want to indulge in faux outrage and win kudos or something.(unfortunate but what a weird way to waste time) You have fun with that and I hope you get bunches of kudos, take care.
- scarface_74 1y agoAnd allowing student IDs for voting isn’t some crazy liberal idea. Plenty of conservative states allow it. https://campusvoteproject.org/student-id-as-voter-id/ https://campusvoteproject.org/student-id-as-voter-id/ You really think it’s an apolitical policy in Texas? And states don’t have a carte blanche ability to have whatever laws they want to about voting, there were a bunch of lawsuits and laws passed in the sixties about that….
