PHOENIX – Arizona's new voter ID law is receiving high marks after its first major test in the general election.
Secretary of State Jan Brewer says she's heard no complaints about people turned away at the polls because of improper identification.
Critics of the ID law also say they've encountered relatively few problems during the election.
The 2004 law says voters must bring a government-issued picture ID or two other approved IDs to the polls.
Those who fail to do this still can vote with provisional ballots.
Critics say the law discourages people from voting, especially minorities and the elderly.
A consortium of community groups and Indian tribes are suing to prohibit election officials from enforcing the law.
