Claim: A poll referenced in a video attached to a tweet by @_Qstormrider states that 82% of Latino voters favor requiring photo identification to vote.
85%Based on my research, here is my analysis of the claim:
- A Pew Research Center survey conducted August 4-10, 2025 found that 83% of all U.S. adults favor requiring government-issued photo identification to vote, with strong majorities across all racial and ethnic groups1.
- The Washington Times reported in February 2026 that this Pew Research Center survey found "82% of Hispanic voters and 76% of Black voters support a photo ID requirement at the polls"2.
- Congressman Derrick Van Orden also referenced the same statistic in a February 2025 Facebook video, stating "82% of Latino Americans support voter ID"3.
- This represents a significant increase from a 2012 Pew Hispanic survey, which found 71% of Hispanic registered voters supported photo ID requirements4.
- While I could not independently locate the specific tweet from @_Qstormrider, the underlying poll statistic (82% of Latino/Hispanic voters favoring photo ID requirements) is accurately attributed to a Pew Research Center survey and has been widely cited by multiple sources32.
- The claim about what the poll states is therefore accurate, though I cannot verify the specific video or tweet referenced.
Overall validity: 85%
