      The mantra of the left - vote early, vote often. Students have the right to vote in the STATE where they have established legal residency. IF they have NOT established residency in the state they are attending school, they shouldn't be allowed to vote TWICE (once where they LEGALLY reside and a second time where they are attending school). Just having a school id doesn't establish residency.

If the student transfers their residency to another state, they'd need to do things like get a drivers license in that state, pay taxes, register their automobile, etc.
      If a student has done that, then yes they should be able to vote in that state. However, they would no longer eligible to vote at home (and by the way, they might no longer be considered dependents of their parents on taxes and insurance as they have moved out).

Others like a driver's license do not have magnetically verified ink like a passport. So there is a hierarchy of id even when state issued.

    My daughter is at UNC Charlotte and just registered to vote there (we live in VA, but as a student she changed to vote there.) She showed me via Facetime the huge presence college democrats have on campus to get students registered and out to vote. Very well organized, free pizza to get interest and lots of energy. Meanwhile, there has been zero effort by college Republicans - she talked to the one little table they set up in the first week of school and they said the have no money (usually comes from the state party, but they are broke) and have basically given up doing anything. That is what the RNC is supposed to do - get out the vote, get young people registered and be supportive. With the RNC now a subsidiary bank account for the Trump campaign, they are losing at the lowest levels and all they can do is try to sue to cover up their own incompetence.
